Pretty Boy Floyd might frustrate The Cincinnati Hawk on this one.
Pretty Boy Floyd wins on points.

Floyd struggled in a similar fashion with Castillo. Pryor was a better pressure fighter than Castillo.

Castillo was much tighter than Pryor. That's certainly a better example.

god knows you don't want talk about old Pryor at welter.

Old Floyd is much tighter than the 135 version. Then even though he came through, Agustus at 130 and Jesus Chavez at 135 made him fight. Pryor is 2X what those two are together.

IMO relentless pressure Pryor and his punching power would be a problem for Floyd.He hit harder and better boxer than Castillo who gave Floyd toughest fight in Mayweather's career.
My pick - Floyd by close unanimous or split decision.

I don't know that he hit harder than Castillo, but he was definitely faster. He would cause plenty of trouble for Floyd but I imagine may weather would drop him a few times with counters for a clear, but tough decision.

I was about to chime in with this sentiment almost word for word.
I pretty much agree with you that I figure Floyd would have his issues, but would ultimately edge him via narrow decision. Not sure if he'd drop him with the counters or not, but it's not out of the question. Either way I suspect most of Floyd's troubles in this fight would come in the earlier portions of the bout, as he has more time to see Pryor, and what he's bringing to the table he probably controls the fight more and more as it goes on.

Aaron was dropped a lot, more balance than being hurt.

True, and Floyd does have excellent timing with his counters so yeah you're probably right he could get at least 1 of them balance knockdowns on him somewhere in there.
