    Emanuel Steward mentioned in the fight between Pacquiao and Clottey that if there was one fantasy matchup he would like Pacquiao to have it would be against a prime Aaron Pryor. Who wins between the Manny Pacquiao of today and a prime Aaron Pryor. Please vote on the poll. Thanks. :bbb

    I voted Prior, but not with a lot of conviction. Pac could pretty much hang with anyone, even Duran and Pryor. But could he beat either, I personally don't think so. But of the two he'd have a better shot against Pryor than Duran, but I think Pryor would win a fight of the year type war.

    This would be one of the greatest fights of all time and i can see a very close decision win either way.

    Ill lean towards Manny today.

    Pryor was unconventional and awkward, this gave his opponents a lot of grief...but I dont he liked it coming back at him.
    Manny's whole modern day package, with his quick hands, quick feet, punches from all angles and high workrate coupled with his southpaw stance and improved defence will probably see him take this by a couple of points.

    I always liked Pryor in this match-up, who I favor to take Manny's punches better than any previous opponent. Likewise, Pryor had quick hands, and was very mobile, traits not a lot of Manny's recent opponents can boast.

    I guess I could hate on Manny too. But what can I put on my avatar that's boxing related that isn't something made up or lacks proof?

    The batttle of the cheaters.....Why not?

    One Manny Pacquiao a PED user, vs another Aaron Pryor taking a liquid concoction to open up his lungs throughout the fight, and God knows what else Panama was doing to his wraps and gloves as Luis Resto described it.

    We can title this matchup, "Cheat Freaks."

    Divac, neither Pryor or Pacquiao have been proven to be cheaters. Calm down.
