Great fight, the punchstat guys would have carpal Tunnel Syndrome after it, but Taylor's own bravery gets the better of him. Pryor throws just as many punches, but there considerably harder. Pryor TKO11
Pryor and I think many of you would be how shocked at the ease in which Pryor belted him down. I am a big Meldrick fan. You aren't going to meet or see a braver man. Still, it is exactly that that will get him brutalized. Pryor would buzzsaw him to a stoppage win, tko 6 thru 8 range. Pryor wins every round and the rounds that he gets dropped in are even. Pryor was a savage.
Taylor didnt have the power to even drop Pryor. I dont think it'd be a total wipeout, but I think Pryor controls 90% of the fight up until stopping Mel. Aaron was just too much in every way for Taylor.
I think this would be fight of century at 140. I pick Pryor in a battle that spends Taylor not much unlike the Chavez bout but much more brutal.
