    Pryor all day. Tszyu has problems with guy who can move and have high workrates.

    Tszyu by stoppage and easier than most think .
    If Pryor needed a black bottle against a past his prime 4mer 126 lbs titlist , what would he have done against a proper 140 lbs champion ?

    With Pryor's ability to box on the move and stand and throw punches in bunches, i think Kostya might get striken with a multiple case of Deja'Vue, he might think he is in there with Philips, the Judah of the first round...and Hatton for pace, it would surprise me if Aaron was caught and put down, but like one of those toys in the bottom of a Budgie's cage...he bounces right up and probably winds up his right arm, as he listens to the Ref's Box On...and goes right back to work, i think Kostya is much to machanical for the weird and wonderful Pryor...Kostya may have something of a bewildered look before the last third ending..Hunches...Punches in Bunches...and Celebration Lunches...i think Pryors got this one in the bag.

    Pryor gets knocked down early but he gets up at the count of two eager to engage war on KT his relentless pressure starts to take its toll on Kostya and by the tenth round Tszyu is spend while Pryor looks like hes just starting, he catches Tszyu with a big right hand that hurts him bad he follows it up with a barrage of punches and the ref decides hes seen enough and stops the fight. Pryor TKO 10.

    I think a late stoppage by the hawk is the most probable outcome here. Zoo can hurt him at any point but the longer the fight goes on the more hurt Aaron will be putting on him.

    There's always the possibility that Kostya catches the Hawk with a single KO punch anywhere in the fight, so I'll give Tszyu a 20-25 % chance of KOing Pryor.

    The other 75 - 80 % is that Pryor wins.

    I wouldn't want to poo-poo Tszyu, but, well, I think Pryor and Pryor's Arguello both take him, at least a little more likely than not, on both counts. :conf I might be romanticising a bit, I suppose.

    The Hawk down early but he'd recover quick and once he did, Pryor would drub Tszyu.

    Mamby would school Tszyu.

    Muangsurin would spark him.

    Tszyu just wasn't all that.

    This isn't much of a possibility.

    While I pick Pryor by a 75-80% margin, if Kostya KDs him, it's all over for the Hawk, whether or not he gets up.

    Tszyu would have lasted about 3 round ended by a horrific KO....Pryor would have just been too much for him
