I rank Pryor as the best 140lb Champion of all time ahead of Tszyu and Chavez. He could be reckless at times and get himself knocked down but that only meant danger for his opponents not him! The Leonard issue is something else again, let's just say SRL never went out of his way to accommodate a fight with Pryor at any time. SRL may well have outboxed him but Pryor was a machine and unstoppable at 140lb, 147lb may have been different. There is controversy surrounding him though and i will let others who know more about that explain.
