sorry
I could make a case that Pryor fought at 140 in his prime and Ray at 147. Pryor never stepped up to 147 to push the challange. But I wont do that.

In fact I agree with you. Ray wanted nothing to do with Pryor. But then again, who did? Prime Pryor was an animal. The only fighter with the balls to fight him was Arguello, who moved up to 140 to face him. We all know how that turned out.

If a prime Pryor was fighting today at 140, I'd say Floyd would be spending a great deal of time in the sweatbox to stay at 135.
