    Nobody beats a prime Aaron Pryor at that weight, and there were some great ones at that.

    I don't know, Stinger. I respect your opinion and all, but I just can see some fat, short, middle-aged powerhouse from Texas powering through The Hawk.

    Thats overstating the man.

    Floyd and Pac would've beaten him at 140. DLH stands a pretty good chance, depending on whether his stamina holds up and/or whether he can get Pryor out of there before he fades.

    I take a prime pryor to beat pac. Would be some fight tho.

    I could see that too, I guess I was stating more of a possibility than a certainty. Pryor would have the chance to outwork Floyd as well, though I think he'd just get shut down and counterpunched to death.

    I'm not sure but i believe pryor threw more on average per round than pac.

    Perhaps, but not with the same force.

    Pryor, followed by Locche if we are talking straightforward 140 pounders

    Floyd was aggressive at 140 even though his competition was garbage?

    Aye. He only really starting dry-humping people after he beat Tszyu, once he found that the tactic worked well against Kostya. Before that he was an in-and-out, work behind a good jab, throw lots of bodyshots type of guy and some of his eartlier fights were genuinely entertaining.

    or maybe he adopted the boring style once he started facing guys who can hit

    One and the same thing I suppose.

  16. I wouldn't say that with the confidence that you have. Pryor is arguably the best but the following could very well have beaten him:

    1. Mayweather
    2. Pacquiao
    3. Chavez
     
  17. no. Same if anything.

    Among others. There's also plenty of other guys that i'd make Pryor a favorite over but would still stand a chance of an upset such as Taylor and Tszyu.
