    Look.
    He is a loser and big mouth.
    I saw him get dropped by a 130 lb. kid at ringside in Vegas.
    The kid gave him a few boots as well to shut his big mouth.
    Like I said --- he is a loser.

    Hagler's right jab against the Curry family chin? Even if they're wearing the then standard thumbed eight ounce gloves, instead of the power reducing ten ounce thumbless gloves SRL demanded as a precondition of getting in the ring with Hagler? (Thumbless gloves reduce the impact of a jab by 50%.)

    I like Curry late. Pryor brings the pressure, but will end up taking too much punishment from the hard-punching Cobra.

    Cobra runs out of gas.

    Prime Curry of '83 to '85 KO's Pryor of 1981 to 1983 inside of 12 rds...... Curry is too big and good for the smaller and reckless Pryor...

    Pryor would be too small and defensively deficient. Also, Curry's chin was not weak during his prime 147 years. Pryor would be aggressive but Curry would counter him, drop him, but I think Pryor's abnormal energy carries him the distance. Curry by unanimous decision. Physically, Curry is just too big for a Pryor who never even fought at 147 until 1987.

    If he is talking about Hagler. I think that the peak Curry 85/86 pre Honeyghan with a winning mentality and not weight drained at about 156 would have given Marvin of the same time a very uncomfortable night.
    I think he is too big and too good for Aaron Pryor. Curry on points by a big margin.
