    Pryor would have his moments definitely, he was an excellent fighter .

    But i dont see him beating Sugar .

    Leonard stops him in 7 .

    Leonard definitely. Pryor was a really good fighter but around that time,I don't think there was anyone who could have beaten Leonard at welterweight (Ray had learned a lot in Montreal) He would have stood up to the Hawk's early onslaught enroute to stopping him in the latter stages.

    Leonard KOs Pryor or wins a wide decision. Much bigger and a class above.

    Leonard was simply bigger and better.

    He either stops Pryor or wins a clear decision
