    On some real ****, I was planning on working on an article that would put me in the newspapers, but in infamy. I had come across a very credible source who was a well known entity in the boxing industry. He divulged me some classified info that would shake up the boxing world. I finished the article, but I elected not to publish it. First off, I cannot verify this info and maintain the confidentiality of the source. Second, boxing is a big money thing. They could kill me if they wanted to, and the info I was given would put alot of people in jail. I would be dead in 48 hours.

    Instead of playing with fire, I prefer instead to maintain my journalistic integrity and stick to just criticizing the sports other dimensions.

          Sorry man, but I just think you're clearly wrong here. Aaron Pryor was a relentless swarmer. The closest thing to him today is Ricky Hatton. Manny Pac is a SOUTHPAW and a totally different fighter.

          And Pryor would never beat Leonard. Pryor NEVER proved himself once at 147, yet he can beat Pryor? Right..

            LOL, I'm gonna keep them coming no doubt. ****, my latest reincarnation as a writer has been very fruitful. Less than a month ago, I dropped my first article (Which BPP had some mean words for ), and in less than a month I have been on a roll. I wonder where my career will be in a year.

              Of course Pryor never proved himself at 147, BECAUSE HE NEVER FOUGHT AT THAT WEIGHT!!! Manny Pacquiao's punch output is more like Pryor. Hatton is aggressive, but doesn't throw the amount of punches or punch from the angles that Pryor did.

              OK, heres what I want you to do Smokin'. Start a thread asking who is more like Pryor's style, Pacquiao or Hatton. If I win, you give me 3 bil, you win I give you 4 bill. That is unless you don't think you could win, Right....

                No thanks, I couldn't care less about points.

                First of all, Pryor is orthodox and Pacquaio is southpaw. Strike One.
                Second of all, Pryor fought from very awkward angles and averaged many, MANY punches per rounds. Manny has a straight up 1-2 style that is very one dimensional. Strike two.
                Third of all, Pryor was an awesome amateur. His claim to fame in the amateurs was beating Tommy Hearns. What was Manny's career like? Strike Three.

                Manny's style is nowhere near Pryor's, that's just ****in' ******.

                Ok, so let me get this straight. You're sayin a prime Aaron Pryor (who fought at 135/140) beats a PRIME Ray Leonard who was able to fight at 147, 154, 160, 175. LOL. Aaron Pryor beats Arguello who was on the tail-end of his career and was a punching bag with little to no lateral movement yet he beats a top 2 welter and a top 15 fighter of all time. You're smokin to much hash boyyyyyy.

                  Come on kid, lets just get this bet cracking then. I don't see what would be so hard in Pryor going up one division to knock the sugar off Leonard's candy ass (Poetry, son). Then you tell me this, why did Leonard refuse to answer Pryor's requests for a fight? Pryor was a very dangerous fighter that no one wanted a piece of.
                  Pacquiao's style was very reminiscent of Pryor's with the way they both filled the ring up with punches, punched from odd angles, always came forward through everything. And what does the southpaw thing have anything to do with anything? They both have brains and fists, that is what its all about. They attack in very similar fashion, with quick punches coming out their asses.

                  BTW, everyone feel free to let us know who was more like Pryor, Pacquiao or Hatton. I'm also working on getting an interview with the Hawk, that would be ****ing awesome!!!!
