Who cares, he beat better fighters in more weights than Pryor did. FACT. Pryor was scared of fighters bigger than him.
Turbo, you always nail it my man. of course you couldn`t know that Pryor was actually a lightweight campaigning in the jr welters becasue he knew he couldn`t get a shot at 135. So... He took on Kid Pambele Cervantes and brough home the title... Pryor scared ?? Yep, you really lnow your boxing. All the guys he fought he definitley fought ,scared. No, actually Fraud fights scared. Beside you dope, Pryor was cleaning out the jr. welters then really developed a serious drug problem wihich killed his career. Or did you not know that ? They did an article with SI while he was weghing in at about 122 lbs, sickly skinny from coke. Sadly he never did much after Arguello 2 because his `problem` really took over. Learn your facts...
So if Pryor was so manly why would he turn down the Leonard fight and resort to cheating ? sounds scared to me. Floyd is greater than Pryor. Get out of the 80s.
stylewise it would favor Floyd, but heart and going into the deep waters of a superfight and pulling out a win would be Pryor. Something tells me Pryor edges this one, and if it was scheduled for 15 likes his fights with Alexis then Floyd would have a very tough grueling long fight.
Learn your facts if you want to pretend you know boxing...he turend down SRL ? Boy, you really don`t know anything about boxing. It`s all good keep being PBF`s cheerleader. You ride those ratty coattails !! Hey Einstein, Pryor was from the 80`s, that`s the point of the thread ! Go back to nuthgging in the recent threads with your girlfriend...
Even though it`s nice for people to say, Floyd wins easy, we`re stuck in the 80`s. The intangibles that Pryor brings to the table is what makes this an interesting fight. Pryor brough heart and tenacity to every fight, which is what made him indomitable... If this was shcedule for 15, Pryor may stop him... Floyd has no idea what a 15 rd war of attrition looks and feels like
As for going back to the 80`s, we all wish that was possible ! Hagler, Hearns, Duran Chavez,Tyson Whitaket, Sanchez, Gomez real figters actually fighting the best and each other ! Can you immagine that Turbo ? While we get the priviliege of watching Frau/Balodomir or Fraud/Ortiz. Where the most excitement is watching Larry Merchant grill floyd for another mismatch !! Turbo, back in the day the greats actually fought the greats ! Even in their respective primes ! Opps, back in the 60`s,70`s 80`,s and 90`s !!
You actually buy the bull**** you try to sell ??? Not made, Just a lot more informed than you Pryor had an escalating drug problem which blew up his career. Obviously you aren`t intelligent enough to know that !! As alway, Turbo, PBF`s #1 nuthugger
Any bias Turbo has for Floyd, you've demonstrated tenfold. Your primary objective on here is to bash Floyd. I myself think Pryor has a chance to take it but your eagerness to talk Floyd down is non stop.
I rate Pryor very highly on a H2H basis at 140. I think stylistically, speed, power, stamina, chin, determination, unorthodoxy...you name it...he is trouble for anyone at the weight. But with that said, I think Floyd is capable of winning a close decision.
If Castillo could beat Floyd there's many ATG's at 130-154 that could of beaten him. Beating the fighters he beat don't make you an ATG.
At what weight? Pryor was a force of nature...unstoppable. I'd say Floyd wins at 140 and above but Pryor wins below140. And please...Ray Leonard wins at any weight vs Floyd.
