    Really? Given how well a past it, much smaller counter puncher like Argüello did vs Pryor, I'd have fought someone with Mayweather's reflexes and accuracy would've done it much easier, especially given he's actually the quicker guy vs Pryor, and could keep up with his stamina.

    Arguello is not much smaller than Mayweather and he's more aggressive. Despite his best efforts, Arguello lost both fights by TKO. Mayweather is more defensive, and based on his match-ups against pressure fighters (I thought he lost the first Castillo and first Maidana fight), Pryor matches up really well against him.

    Mayweather tend to go into a shell for periods of time instead of fighting back. This will give the relentless Pryor plenty of opportunities to fight his fight and win a decision.

    Pretty much this. This is the reason I lost respect for FlIVd and stopped being a fan. He didnt fight the best at their best so we can never really know how great he truly was or wasn't.
