About 10 years ago HBO did a documentary series called Legendary Nights and I thought they did an excellent job. They used fights such as SRL vs Hearns, Tyson vs Douglass, DLH vs Trinand, and a few others. Pryor vs Arguello was always my favorite fight growing up. So I figured Id post this for the younger members on this site that have never heard of an Alexis Arguello or an Arron Pryor.

Awesome fight. I remember there was this intense interview with arguellos son where he talked about how his dad kept apologizing to him after the fight in the locker room, pretty deep.

I just wish that scumbag Panama Lewis didn't tarnish an otherwise perfect fight.
