    Im takin Ambers by way of UD.
    I think he fought much greater fighter's. I think he's tougher. He's an all around better fighter in my book. Not to mention all his experiance.

    I believe there is a lack of Amber education on the forum.

    Ambers is a solid champ... good jab and a tough inside fighter, but Aaron Pryor was special.

    Pryor uses his height and reach advantage to good effect here against the mite-ish Ambers.

    Pryor is the more skilled fighter and possessed as much, if not more, fighting spirit than Ambers.

    All told, Pryor should win : tko - 11

    I think Pryor had more athleticism but I think Ambers had more skill.

    Ambers may be the more traditionally skilled fighter, but Pryor's style and offensive attack is daunting.

    Alexis Arguello is as solid as they come and even he was overwhelmed.

    I agree. But Arguello was also at the end of his rope and we still dont know how much Pryors bottle played in his victory.
    I just see Ambers toughness and experience swinging the tide in this one.
    By Ambers own recolection he claims 238 fights with 8 losses,while the official is 88 6 8.

    I judge by what I see of fighters fighting, not just their record and Pryor looks far superior on film. Ambers makes it a tough 1 but loses comprehensively
