...the biggest fight would be between pryor and the five guys trying to get him into the ring against duran.

I think Pryor is a little overated and Duran would over whelm and KO him late.

If anything I think that Pryor was the most underrated fighter ever.

[quote="MightyWarrior"][quote="Jaclem"]..not so bizarre when you know that in his pre-title days he would not fight anyone taller, howard davis or anyone not coming off a loss.

there's an old skeptic saying."Vas you dere, charlie?"..and i vas dere.[/quote]

Wrong answer. Go and stand in the corner. Pryor stood a 6 foot tall Tommy Hearns on his head as an amateur.

I vas dere too. :D[/quote]

Can you tell me more about this match up? I have seen the match up where Pryor beats a raw 17 year old Hearns on a decision in the amateur ranks but I've not heard about Hearns getting laid out by Pryor.

Ok Duran probably would win, but I don't think that anyone at all, ever never ever ever never, was more of an animal than Aaron Pryor.

..i was referring to pryor's pro fights....not as an amateur. he did have a chance to fight howard davis as a pro....but....aw..the hell with it.

Jaclem, face it...the topic of Pryor is for you like the mafia for Michael Corleone: you try to get out but they always pull you back in...
