The Great Aaron Pryor, on this day in history...



I personally truly believe that The Hawk was one of the most underrated P4Ps of all time. I mean, the man beat the great Alexis Arguello. Twice. An all action fighter whose punches came from all angles, reminiscent of Henry Armstrong. Yes, he was very unorthodox and he had other problems in his personal life. But, compared to Tyson, the man was an angel. Pryor belongs on that list. I wouldn't recommend his style to just any fighter, but I would say that every true student of boxing should watch Pryor's fights.
