  • For The Sake Of Argument: Aaron Pryor Was Tailor Made For Manny Pacquiao

    Yes or no?

    I have a hard time thinking that "(sometimes overly) aggressive, come forward, chin in the air" are not traits that get you clocked and laid out by Manny Pacquiao. Yeah, Pryor was a beast and those traits are a handful for most guys but I think they would be asking for a nightmare against Pacquiao.

    Anybody else think like this for this fantasy fight? I really started to think "tailor made" when I saw that Pacquiao hits hard enough to drop Shane Mosley with a half grazing shot, badly hurt him to boot, and basically make him give up the fight from then on. If he could hurt Mosley's iron chin like that than I truly believe his power able to hurt any chin. Especially that of a guy that keeps it straight in the air.

    Trading with Pac is suicide. He has this instinct to slip a punch and catch you with a shot you don't see.

        Pryor is overated. His style walks right in to the exact same shot that nailed Hatton

          I can't see anyone at 140 winning a firefight with Manny Pacquiao. Pryor included.

              I don't think he'd KO Pac, but he did have the skill and athleticism to outbox Pac. Let him feel Pac's power, and he'll stop brawling, and we'd have to see what happen from there on

                Pryor would have beat Pac in a close fight imo,it would have been FOTY and a great match up that I think Pryor would have pulled out..Both are fast but Pryor was very physical I don't think Manny has ever fought someone as physical as Pryor..Not to mention refs let ya fight a lil different back in Pryor's days so certain things Pryor would have used in the ring I don't believe Pac would be ready for..Love Pac but I don't see him winning this fight..

                  Pryor had more head movement then anyone Pac has ever fought..He would slip a lot of Manny punches,I like both but would go with Pryor in this fight..

                    PAC would get destroy by Pryor in 1. It's a fantasy fight.
