Aaron Pryor vs Manny Pacquiao?

After what Pacquiao has accomplished in his great career, it's hard to go against him even with Pryor. Believe me, I would have never said that before as I would have thought that Pryor would have been too strong and overpowering. He just knocked out De La Hoya in 8 and Hatton in two and we are not talking about run of the mill fighters! I've always thought that the only guy that would beat Pryor possibly at 140 lbs would have been Roberto Duran.but Pacquiao has now elevated his status to that of the all time greats. He has a great chin, power, and speed and would be a great fight for any of them in my opinion. Pyor did beat the great Arguello twice and was a human windmill in the ring throwing punches from all angles. I think Pac Man would have equaled this and the intensity and smart enough to box when he needs to against the Hawk. I usually don't change my mind, but I'm now convinced that's there's a good chance Pacquiao beat Pryor. I pick Pacquiao by split decision in a great fight.
