    Aaron The Hawk Pryor, one hell of a fighter, Thomas Hit Man Hearns one of the all time modern greats,
    they don't make them like theses 2 any more.

    Yes. I'm not saying he was a bad fighter, far from it, he was a great fighter. I just think he was the weakest of the fab four.

    He wins polls as the greatest light middle of all time, but his record does not convince me, and I would have McCallum stopping him every day of the week had he not avoided that fight. The losses to Barkley, Leonard, and Hagler just jade his legacy a bit too much for me to consider him as highly as others do.

    Had they fought in the pros Hearns would have KO'd Pryor EASILY. Sure Pryor had a solid chin and all, but he got knocked down a few times, he had the tendency to raise his chin when throwing combinations. I think a grown up Hearns is a very tough task for Pryor.

    Who would win Prime vs Prime Pryor vs Mosley match?

    I hear you there. However p4p I have him the best of the fab four he had the height, reach, skills and power to go up the weights with ease.
    Do not let success go to your head and do not let failure get to your heart.

    I think people rate fighters because of their entertainment value as well as technical ability, however disspassionate they are trying to be, and the hitman was a million dollar fighter in the value for money stakes.

    Aaron Pryor was a beast at Jr Welterweight, Tommy Hearnns was a beast at Jr Middleweight. Both great in there own weightclasses it could of never of happened as pro's. Let's forget about what ifs and just admire what they done in there own weightclasses.
