Let's not forget, Pryor did start at 135, and even if we do 140, the lightweight Mosley would still have a few pounds on the junior welter Pryor, so it's a fair comparison. Who wins?
Don’t forget his durability. He was a tough SOB who could and would brawl with you the whole fight if that’s the way it went.
Mosley is just a bigger better brawler. Pryor isn’t going to move around and outbox or outwork him and Mosley was a sharper puncher with better defense and the bigger man.
I don't think Shane was a very smart fighter, he was just athletically and chemically better than the guys he fought. He had at one point the best handspeed and footspeed outsode of Roy Jones, and that served him well. Soon as Vernon Forrest who had a bit of length and speed about him.......came along.....Shane ate leather and canvas.
