    It would be a good fight while it lasted... but I see Duran wearing him down and knocking him out within 5 rounds... After a few fireworks. :2guns:

    Pryor was c***y and would have pi**ed Duran off in the pre- fight build up. Wouldn't have been sweet for my man Pryor. He would have gave it his all but the end result would've been an awful 10 round TKO for Duran.

    Hi all I reckon “ The Hawk “ was a bit too hittable to beat Duran.

    Roberto was not the kind of fighter who you wanted landing regularly against you, especially if like Pryor you’re a wee bit smaller than Duran and not as physically strong a fighter.

    I do know one thing, it would be a barn burner while it lasted.

    Cheers All.
