    Can't see Pryor being overwhelmed by Shane.He would need to have been thoroughly wrecking the likes of DLH and Forrest to make that seem likely.Even Wilfredo Rivera was quite a struggle and lasted a while before he did him in.

    Damn good fight though.

    Yeah, my thoughts.

    Just have to consider how much more advanced cutting weight/weight draining has become.

    All you guys giving Mosley the size advantage are forgetting one thing. Aaron weighed in on the day, so how strong would Shane be if he did that too ? MAybe Shane gets overwhelmed ? Shane has never been near anyone as intense and powerful as Pryor.

    :lol:

    Yeah, don't even dare compare their "power". Did you miss a nearly 40 year old Mosley treating Margarito like a rag doll?

    mosleys superior size, speed and strength prevails. Pryors would be fighting someone who would not be intimidated and would match him punch for punch, and who also took a great punch. Mosley would time pryors rushes and catch him coming in, often enough for a late round tko

    Do you all think Mosley would be equally effective weighing in on the day ? Or Pryor not more effective weighing in 24hours in advance ? Or even as far as 34 hors in advance ?

    We are not comparing two light welters Pryor fought as a light welter , Shane just weighed in as one

    Pryor puts on such pressure, have to go with him.

    This would be a war, no doubt.

    I can't really say....

    I like Mosley's cleaner, more prescise hitting.

    Aaron would put tremendous pressure on Shane, probably scare the hell out of him.Pryor on a SD in 12, probably unanimous in 15.

    Shane would give a valiant fight, but in the end Pryor's aggression will be a little too much for him to overcome, in the shape of a UD won by the Hawk.

    Mosley via decision or late stoppage.
