    Mayweather 10-2. Why do think a presure fighter is going to beat Mayweather. How many times do we need to see it tried and fail in real life to understand that pressure plays right into Mayweather's hands?

    I'm not sure which pressure fighters you are using as an example...Hatton?
    Mayweather seemed to have a bit of trouble making adjustments with the pressure Hatton was giving him in the opening rounds and Pryor makes Hatton look like a sloth work-rate-wise.

    Pretty much everyone he's fought after Castillo.

    Pryor by talon disembowelment.

    Multiply Castillo's (who I thought beat Mayweather in the first fight) pressure X10 and you get Aaron Pryor's pressure. Besides, Pryor took some HARD shots from Arguello, Mayweather's not going to phase him.

    Pressure from Pryor but ... People underestimate the boxing skills Pryor did have. he DID in fact move aroung Arguello at times and pop him with good jabs. he could move fluidly and box when he needed to.PBF does NOT have the punch to gain Pryors respect. And on shot at time time potshotting won`t get it dome either.Geez Arguello hits a ton,and he just couldn`t keep the `Hawk` off of him...

    Aaron beats the hell out of PBF, PBF does well for 5-6 rds then the Hawk wears him down in late rds Floyd is on the run trying to survive.
