Pryor never felt a punch after that.

Didn't they claim Pryor was drinking peppermint snops the 2nd fight.

Marvin Hagler had some great battles way before he fought Hearns and Leonard.

Saw a great documentary (30 for 30 I think) on the effort to get Duran and Leonard together a few years back. The two had a genuine hate for each other that lasted for 30 years.

It was an interesting watch for even the slightest of boxing fans.

Manos de pierda is easily a top ten fighter of all time. Dude won a middleweight title all the way from lightweight. Straight beast.


Duran actually started as a featherweight

Not sure if it was the first or 2nd fight, but his corner gave him cocaine during the fight.

After the weigh in for the second fight, Duran pigged out on steaks. Supposedly he had the runs creeping up on him, hence "no mas". Also, it doesn't help when he's getting his arse kicked. Ha.
