Dream fight. Henry Armstrong vs Aaron Pryor. Who wins?

Question

140 lbs in their prime and 15 rounds.

Answer 1

Oh man Toughguy u beat me to the punch on this question! lol. We all witnessed the rise and fall of Pryor and always wonder how truly great he would have been instead of retiring in his prime and making his ''comebacks'' then off again to retirement. Speed,Power,Granite chin, Insane boxing skills and Super confidence sum up ''The Hawk''

''Hurricane Hank'', ''Hammerin' Hank'' ''Perpetual Motion''

Henry Armstrong had almost as many nicknames as wins (151) The only fighter to hold three different world titles, REAL ONES not the ''titles'' of today, in three different weight classes at the same time!

Beat Barney Ross and Lou Ambers and made the most defenses of the welterweight title. His style was like a windmill and overwhelmed most of his opponents with punches coming from all angles. I think he would be way too much for Pryor to handle. Pryor fought at strange angles as well but never encountered someone who came at him like a human windmill.

Armstrong by late stoppage or unanimous decision.

Answer 2

hank vs the hawk:

this is a battle of two windmills, with the action kept at ring centre from star to finish.

pryor might suffer a flash knock down early, but would come straight back and mix it up!

by the half way mark, armstrong starts to pull slightly ahead as they still trade in close with pryor starting to slow down.

the majority of the final 5 rounds go to armstrong who takes a unanimous decision.

Answer 3

I would have to give the edge to "Hammering Hank", he had too much energy and fought non stop.

I see him wearing Aaron down and getting a decision by dominating the last half of the fight.

Answer 4

Pryor because Panama Lewis would put cyanide-tipped needles in Pryor's gloves. Armstrong would suddenly drop dead late in the first round.
