    For all his great defense and reflexes Whitaker hit the floor a good amount of times in his career. I can easily see Pryor coming out fast, catching him and dropping him. But Whitaker would get up. And he would win the fight. Whitaker 9 rounds to 3. Or 8 to 4.

    I could see that,a Whitaker win.Just too slippery,wiley and a firmly planted guy I think for onrushing Pryor...jabbing that chest hard back all night.Pryors aggresivness might have worked against him big time.

    I think most of them were from being cocky and over confident, or balance issues. I think the only real knockdown that hurt him was the one against Roger Mayweather.

    I do see Aaron Pryor knocking Pernell Whitaker down, but i don't see him winning i see the fight much like you. I know Aaron Pryor was past his prime against Gary Hinton.

    But i still think he would of struggled with Gary Hinton's slick Southpaw style, and really if he had that much trouble against Gary Hinton. He would of been taught a bit of a lesson from Pernell Whitaker.
