Who would have won at 140? This would be a classic boxer vs. swarmer match-up. Pryor was a relentless pressure fighter with power and an iron chin.

At 140, Floyd would have eaten him up. Just too fast of hand and feet.
Aaron was a great swarmer and pressure fighter, but Floyd is amazing on the inside as well.
I see Pryor eating a lot of leather.
Floyd's just a nightmare to fight for anyone. It's so rare to have a fighter where you're not really safe anywhere. Traditionally guys either want to be on the outside or on the inside, so when you get true old school guys like Floyd and prime Toney who can carve guys up from anywhere, they'll always match up well in any hypothetical matchup.
Floyd is not amazing on the inside.
Pryor with the bottle was relentless and Hatton gave Floyd hell for 6 rounds. Pryor gets Floyd on his bike.
Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.
Pryor is overrated and Floyd would dissect him in route to a late TKO...
Btw, floyd has a good inside game but chooses not to be there because he doesnt have to..
Check out his short, counter right uppercuts on the inside.. it's a thing of beauty. James Toney style
Hatton gave Floyd hell for 6 rounds?! We must have watched two completely different fights. Hatton did his best to pressure, missed a ton, exhausted himself, and got dropped. Pryor is a different animal than Hatton for sure...but Floyd had too much skill and brilliant movement (especially at 130 to 140).
Oh Floyd would TOOL Pryor. Aaron Pryor was a great fighter, but Mosley had a similar style and a better chin and although Floyd fought an ancient Mosley but Floyd would just pick apart Pryor and I think he'd stop him to be quite honest.
Did anyone stop Pryor in his peak?

aaron pryor would tear mayweather apart like a bobcat tears a little kitten to shreds. Fight would be over in 5 rounds. Knock out. Cold.
I can't stand the fooker, but Mayweather would time Pryor like a clock. You don't have to be a "huge" puncher to short circuit someone, especially when they do half the work for you on the front foot(s) and you're timing and accuracy is among the best.
