    Benitez best performances come above the weight but nobody beside the great Leonard beat him at welterweight so these should be some good fights. Prime Pryor was a similar size to Benitez

    I can definitely see Benitez at his best getting the better of all 3 of them, that's how talented and special prime El Radar was.

    I voted prime Benitez clears because there is no pick my own choices. If there was I’d say that Moseley could be his closest fight. Then Paquio. I personally think Pryor is overrated and doesn’t even belong in this discussion. My personal opinion.

    Pryor only. I never saw anything from Benitez at 147 to make me think he’d beat Shane from the Oscar fight or Pacquiao from the Cotto fight.
