    Pryor TKO6 Tszyu

    He would give Tszyu a beating. Tszyu could be beat by guys who swarmed him, got on the inside, and made him very uncomfortable. Nobody did this better than Aaron Pryor.

    Pryor had a chin. You would think that with Tszyu's power and accuracy, he would have a shot at knocking Pryor out, catching him.. But, if he were to fight the Pryor that showed up and scratched Arguello, Tszyu would have no chance in hell, heaven, purgatory, or anyplace else.. Tszyu was stopped by a swarmer who does a lot of wrestling and punching in the clinch to make up for some boxing ability shortcommings.. Pryor was one of the masters, if he had one shortcomming it was his defense at times, but he had a chin forged from hell.

    Guy could take a serious punch.

    Stylistically, Pryor is as bad as it gets against Tszyue. He would overwhelm Tszyue with his voume punching and presure more efficiently than both Hatton and Phillips did.

    As said earlier, I think Pryor is wrong stylistically for Tszyu.

    This is a nightmare fight for Kostya. Kostya hates getting violated and pressured, and Pryor made those qualities an art.

    IMO Kostya would beat him.

    I like Pryor, he fought like a badass. But he had holes himself. I never was impressed with his defense and I don't think he can smother punches.

    I see this going like Pryor-Aguello except Zoo can take Pryor's shots for 12 rounds...
