    I love Camacho the master boxer southpaw but if Pryor comes out smoking the way he did with Arguello, it's going to be too much for him. Pryor kicks his ass

    Pryor KO 5, especially at 140.

    I think Pryor has a chance to stop Camacho. De la Hoya didnt. Neither did Chavez. Camacho deserves the thought that he may make the distance.

    I just don't believe he would. Pryor tko 11. Pryor is too much for Camacho to ge away from.

    Pryor's the easy pick here. His frenetic non stop pressure can't be offset by Camacho who simply doesn't have the power to earn his respect. Look for Camacho to do more running than fighting. He will be content to go the distance safely while losing a clearcut decision.

    If Hector can survive the beatdown Chavez gave him, a fresher Camacho survives anything Pryor can dish out.

    LOL! Pryro beating any AtG is a joke, he cheated Arguello with the help of Lewis, and the only time he fought clean his whole career was actually against bobby joe young and he was beaten easily.

    He was hardly "Clean" when he fought Bobby Joe Young. He was a full fledged drug addict and alcoholic at that point. You can hate Pryor if you want, but, don't purposefully skew the facts. Pryor was a great fighter.

    By the time he reached super light weight Camacho sr had turned into a safety 1st fighter. To defeat a fighter like Pryor you got to gain his respect, that means seriously hurting him something excellent fighters and punchers like Cervantes and Arguello couldn't do. Pryor wasn't as precise with his punches as Chavez was, But he was much more active and a harder puncher. I don't think Pryor stops Camacho, but he'd cruise to a unanimous dec because Camacho would be in survival mode.

    Prime for prime Pryor wins. Camacho was never great at 140 lbs.

    This Pryor troll really bumped a 12-year-old thread...

    He has a strange Pryor obsession.

    Pryor beats Camacho. Hector would go into survival mode by the mid rounds.
