    I think Armstrong's more polished inside technique carries him to victory.

    Armstrong chews up The Hawk. You have to remember that even at 135 Pryor wasn't an unstoppable juggernaut... and his defense was lacking at times.

    The only way to truly beat Armstrong is to outfight him on his game,or catch him a bit past his prime,prime for prime near impossible for The Hawk to get Armstrong.

    I love Henry's appearance on "I've got a secret".

    Hi Buddy.
    For what it's worth, I am in full agreement with your sentiments, granted Pryor was a force to reckon with, but he attacked from distance, whereas the two fighters that had the most success with Armstrong, before he began to decline were , Zivic and Ambers, who were both very good inside up close type of fighters, they both denied Henry room for his incessant hooking , and overhand rights, cannot see Pryor doing the same, I can see the fight going the distance 12 or 15 with Armstrong a points winner.
    stay safe buddy, chat soon.

    Pryor was a great exciting and talented with speed and power, but Armstrong took a great shot and was relentless. Armstrong UD 15
