In a 15 round fight, between Carmen Basillio and Aron Pryor,145lbs.who survives the war?...A potential alltime barn burner,between two tough SOB's...And the winner is......
Didn't we just do this already recently Burt? This feels like Deja Vu. Basilio Late TKO/Decision I remember most picking Basilio to be too tough for Pyror too.
PUH-LEASE!!! I'll take "The Onion Farmer" any day over Aaron "Crackhead" Pryor............ Regardless if Pryor says he never used Coke until after his first 1982 fight with Arguello is irrelevant.... Pryor admitted his Coke use began in 1983 leading up to his rematch, but claims he still had a grip on the drug at that point and was clean throughout training and the fight of Sept. 1983......... Pryor got busted by Cops two months later in Nov. with Coke during a traffic stop..... Still, fact is, Carmen Basilio was naturally bigger by being a solid welterweight and proved he could hang tuff at 160 with SRR......... Pryor looked porky at 148 against Bobby Joe Young in that late 80s KO loss....... Basilio eats Pryor alive in a time machine........hat MR.BILL
There was a thread about this a while back. Basilio wins comfortably. Bigger, stronger, tougher and more skilled.
