Floyd Mayweather vs Aaron Pryor

Pryor would have to take the test, and with good reason to :deal

 

Pryor would have kicked Floyds ass.

 

I agree with some who say it would not happen. When has Floyd fought a guy of this quality and peak time? If Floyd were fighting in 1982 during the era of Aaron Pryor in 1982, Floyd would have picked a fighter like Lonnie Smith to defend against and built it up as a superfight, or he might fight an aging Bruce Curry.

 

floyd by ko. floyd has the most devastating one punch ko.

41 have tried. fact!

 

:deal

 

Floyd would never fight him. If Floyd was around in the early 80s he would've stayed between 130 -135. Pryor at 140 and Leonard/Hearns at 147. Like someone else said, if Floyd is weary of Pac, who is like a poor mans Pryor, he ain't going near Pryor.

Floyd by mythical matchup since he wins mythical matchups because he's undefeated
Pryor by embarrasment because even Floyd knows Pryor wasn't anyone to play around with and would list zillion excuses to why he shouldn't fight Pryor.

 

Why?? Is Pryor much less effective at pressurising a fighter than Castillo??

I'd say anyone who can't see a reasonable argument both ways in this fight is a troll and knows very little about this sport!!

 

After reading the Hagler-Jackson thread, I wonder if I spend more time killing the stupid "Leonard ducked Pryor" myth or the "Hagler was a brawler" myth.

I think boxing ought to have a "mythbusters" series.

If there's anything that annoys me more than "*******s" and "*****s", it's revisionist history.

 

If floyd could beat manny easily.... well the fight would have happend already... Do you think floyd likes the fact that almost everyone thinks he's scared of pacquiao!?? even his own momma is like "son, please fight that man, im tired of all the ladies at bingo calling you a chump"

Here is the Hawk as an ametuer against Tommy Hearns ..You think Castillo gave PBF pressure look at what a young Pryor does to a young Hearns ! Yeah Floyd schools who ?Like a previous post Pryor gives very little room to his opponents .

 

Uh-uh. "One in the same"? Please. Pacquiao is much more skilled than Pryor was.

 

I see this as being 50/50 on floyds best day & Aaron's worst day, it's a clear case of volume winning the day here for me + the fact that Pryor is also a 1st class boxer as well as a 1st class scrapping machine. Just can't see what floyd's got to be able too keep Pryor away from him enough to take some form of control. Floyd just dos'nt have enough bang about him too keep pryor honest & even if he did i doubt that would stop Pryor's swarming attacks for much more than hop & a skip. I don't see Floyd surviving 15 TBH.

 

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!!!!!!...He said skills...lmao..Manny+skills in the same sentence...Manny is a good little fighter but only cuz he hits so hard and so fast...I think Manny can beat ANYONE if he just tried and fought the best...I dont see him beating Khan, Floyd, and Sergio....but he would MURDER anyone else if he just tried

 

Well last time I checked Manny said he was willing to test in between rnds....and everyone else on his team admitted they wouldnt even go beyon 7 days...Manny is not a liar...he is an ACTOR...The fight hasnt happened cuz Arum wont let him fight....I think Manny is scared shittless of Floyd and his personality, but FIGHTERS fight...Manny STILL would step in the ring with Floyd...I just think Arum wont let them fight....but we all know the fight is not even close....If Ortiz didnt stand a chance, its up to Sergio to do it for Manny...Floyd's arms are longer than Ortiz...but Ortiz's arms are longer than Pac's...shoulderroll+smaller fighter=NO PUNCHES landed...lmao...but we all know this I dont even wanna talk about it

 

You've got to be kidding me.
