What Time is It?

Yeah, his mother had told me the reason why they sent him over to Emmanuel Steward is that if you're a tall fighter and you need to learn how to fight, Steward is the one to call.

His son is more of a KRONK fighter in that he ties up on the outside and uses his 1-2 from the outside. He had an off night the first time he was on TV but in his next fight a few weeks ago he blasted an even better fighter out in the first round. I think he's starting to come into his own as a fighter, personally.

Pryor Jr. will be making his Cincinnati hometown debut on the 30th of this month on the Lamon Brewster undercard.

i would love to see both brewster and Pryor jr in action again.
Good call that he's trained by steward. the one thing i dont like though is that Steward's fighters dont fight that well on the inside. It's a different topic altogether, but everytime that comes up i always comment on it. But they do a great job on shorter opponents.

Yeah, its a shame that Pryor didn't truly achieve all he could have as a professional. A lot of Cincinnati fighters succumbed to the rough life around them, Ricardo Williams Jr. and Tony Tubbs as well.

Leonard probably wouldn't have fought Pryor anyways, since he was like Margarito or Glen Johnson, a tough fight with little to gain.

My trainer hated Pryor because he was a huge Arguello fan and we used to always argue about him. I made him put a Pryor poster up in the gym though because I wouldn't train otherwise LOL. Here is a letter Mr. Pryor sent me when I first started boxing.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks so much for visiting my website, glad that you liked it. It's always
great hearing from boxing fans especially those who are amateur boxers. My
son, Aaron Jr., won the Cincinnati National Golden Gloves this year and went
to the National's. I wish you much luck with your boxing career. My
biggest piece of advice to you is to go to the gym every single day and
listen to your coach. Dedication and being able to learn from your coach
will carry you much farther than just natural ability. Practice, practice,
practice. That's what I did!

Best of luck and happy holidays!

nice letter, very likable individual. Such a beast in the ring, but what i gentleman outside of it. How can you not like a fighter like Pryor. True class, look forward to the new interview.

Yeah, the card is going to be televised online. It's going to feature a lot of Cincinnati fighters, so it should be entertaining.

Steward's fighters do have a tendency to eschew in-fighting, but given that most of them are so long and lanky, you can't really blame them for that. I do give him credit for teaching them survival. The first fight I attended was the great fight between Jonathon Banks and Eliseo Castillo. Banks was hurt so bad yet he did one of the most professional jobs of tying your man up I had ever seen.

banks is impressive. I've never seen him on tv, but i always watch youtube to see what they have of him. I read an interview, and he said that once he gets to unify titles at cruiserweight he would move up to heavyweight. but it also gives him time to wait untill Klitschko retires, and i think manny knows it.

Tall heavies dont usually get mixed up on the inside. The most effective big guy that i ever saw, and the choice is obvious, is Rid**** Bowe. but there are not too many 6'5 240+ heavyweights who could squeeze in room for consistent bodywork.

Not only was Aaron fearless, he was usually shorter than his opponents.

He brought it raw.

When I see him doing staredowns, you could sense that he wasn't going to yield until he was dead. Giving up was not in his vocabulary.

Steward fighters? Seriously? Andy Lee was such put on ***** street and he had no idea. I'd say just the opposite.
