The Pryor who won that classic first fight with Alexis Arguello moving up in weight to battle the man who beat Don Curry in '86.
Honeyghan's head > Pryor's PEDs , Honeyghan as overrated that he is (but obviously not by this TS) would have stopped Pryor . After all Arguello would have done it had it not been 4 that bottle . Pryor beat no1 , a stoppage of a well done Cervantes , a cheat against a well past his prime Arguello , another stoppage over n even more runied Arguello and there it ended , didn't it ?
Lloyd would stop Aaron. There are some battles at 147 that Aaron Pryor is not winning and Honeyghan is one of them.
Pryor was an exciting fighter and I loved his spirit and style, but now I question if he was hopped up on something throughout his career. His cornerman was a known conman/cheater, and Aaron was a known drug user. It's a shame that has to be held over him but it's just what I think now. It's hard to truly know just how good he was simply because I don't know if he could do all the same things he did without the "pep pills" in his bloodstream.
It'd be a cracker of a fight. The ragamuffin man, a Jackinabox with gloves vs a modern version of Henry Armstrong. I can see Pryor hitting the deck a couple of times but still stopping Honeyghan
