Pryor or Holmes as H2H forces

Boxed Ears · 11-24-2010, 09:48 PM

The prime Light Welterweight Aaron Pryor or the prime Heavyweight Larry Holmes? Who stands highest in their division as the total H2H package against the other greats, to you? (This is not an accomplishments thread. Just H2H. )

Poll to come.

Warning: Highlight Videos on youtube have never and will never have music we can all enjoy. This is the nature of the beast. I often mute them and sing Freddie King over it but that's just me.

Holmes had a longer career and more accomplished.

In other words, you cannot see the color red? Dammit, man!

I specifically put in bold red letters with an emoticon that this WAS NOT ABOUT ACCOMPLISHMENTS AND ONLY ABOUT H2H!!!

...i'm not sure i understand the h2h aspect....do you mean if they fought each other?!?!?!?!?

if we are judging their merits as fighters it's certainly holmes as he had a touch of greatness whereas pryor was mostly a fraud.

Swarmer · 11-25-2010, 02:27 AM

Holmes definitely IMO.

Pryor's career is, and always will be subject to cheating criticism.

This was a good thread idea. They say there are no bad comments only bad threads but that's not true. This is a good thread idea that has had two terrible comments and I'm starting to feel like the guy who ran the pre-taped call-in show. And Swarmer, he didn't even fucking vote after a very self-assured comment.

IT'S NOT THAT FUCKING COMPLICATED!

That actually helped clear up some of my TSR. Thread-starter rage.

Hitler looks like he's having a rough session on the toilet in that photo. Either that,or Mike Tyson not satisfied with Holyfield's ear,is trying to bite Adolf's dick !

Got to give this one to Larry. Career peak lasted much longer.

Conclusive answer

..add to it that Holmes' (I hate this term, but I'll use it anyway) ..........."skill set"..(ugh) was superior to Pryor's.

DaveK · 11-25-2010, 10:04 AM

This thread is shit and doesn't even make sense!

Holmes would knock Pryor into bolivion H2H... He would never get inside that jab. Let alone when Holmes drops the right...

It's a complete mismatch.
