Tommy Hearns VS Aaron Pryor (Goldengloves-really good fight)

Just found this vid, first time seeing it, what a tear up!!

Great find man.

Yeah, good stuff. I figure Hearns is just too young here. They fight again as pros at welterweight, and it's a different story.

First view hear,out standing stuff.Take a minute and contrast the Amateur matches of then & today?Would not make it through the 2nd or 3rd frame I believe.Great find.

I have actually got this fight on an old video , its also contains a fight featuring Mike Dokes in the unpaid ranks .

Gotta agree here. Before i watched it I thought that even a 17 year old Hearns would have won but as you say probably just too young. Taking nothing away from Pryor though great fighter too.
