    12 rounds at welterweight. The Hawk finally gets a Sugar into the ring...How would it play out?

    One on Roids and the Other with a "Black Bottle" 2" of padding removed from his gloves & Possible "Plaster Caster" over his wrap's....

    I'll take Panama Lewis & The Hawk.

    Nah, Seriously tho I'd choose Pryor...
    Dude was a machine, Leonard didn't want him for a reason.
    He has Power & has a mean streak to boot.
    the more you hit him the madder he get's & more violent.

    Shane would have trouble against him.
    Mosley does not posses the power at WW to hurt Aaron.
    he will be unable to keep him off. IMO

    + That "Black Bottle"

    Nice one dpw417. I can't believe I haven't seen this one before. This could be one of the best mythical match-ups ever.

    With Mosley's shots being more to the point, I see him landing more often. With Pryor's punches being heavier, I see him landing the harder shots.

    Mosley has always shown a big heart and a decent chin. Pryor hits hard enough to have Mosley in trouble, and punches with enough volume to connect even if he's being beaten to the punch. Mosley doesn't have great head movement, but he is able to throw high volumes of punches as well. Mosley doesn't have Pryor's power, but he hits hard enough to keep Aaron honest.

    I believe Mosley would win one of the greatest bouts ever with a 7-5 margin in rounds.

    Id pick Pryor in a p4p h2h sense, but its closer still at 147, remember how good he LOOKED for a while, but these guys he fought are not Aaron Pryor! Anyway, gunna be a war, both go forward, Shane's silky skillful hands lead some to believe he boxed more than what he did, the man was a ko artist at one point and liked to fight that way, although he did go a long time without a ko, i believe he was low on confidence for a while, no excuses in this sport though! Anyway, at 147, i'll reluctantly pick Mosley in ana AMAZING spectacle for the ages

    Pryor never did anything at 147, but lose to a faded Bobby Joe Young, I'm going with the known factor, Mosely by a close split decision.

    at welterweight it's a Mosley fight, but Pryor was the greatest light welterweight of all time so if they fought there I wouldn't hesitate to say Pryor by KO
