This article seems perfectly NPOV to me. I assume the debate is about the Arguello fight, since I noticed the Alexis Arguello article is flagged as well. If so, the controversy about that fight is very real. Pryor had an unethical trainer named Panama Lewis, who gave him a bottle of some unknown substance at a key point in the fight. Lewis was known for such antics--read the article on him--and people still talk about the Pryor-Arguello fight because of that incident. user:Jsc1973

Yea, I'm saying it looks just fine too. I'll wait a few days and then yank the nomination unless somebody has any reason for it not to be. --GaidinBDJ June 29, 2005 18:41 (UTC)

I originated the article. Not one to pamper myself as a writer, but trust me, I didnt know this was not a boxing magazine around the time I wrote it. This article is NPOV, and a baby compared to some earlier articles I wrote. Thanks anyways for your comments and God bless you!

Sincerely yours, Antonio Explosive Hawk Martin

I do not think mentioning the black bottle violates NPOV as I have also stated on the Alexis Arguello page.Unklelemmy 00:08, 13 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Anyone who has seen the fight would have heard Panama Lewis clearly asking in the corner for "The bottle that I mixed"

It's a much a part of the fight as the result itself.

The page is fine.It is true to the actual history.The black bottle incident was a fact,The contents were never really verified but a second fight did happen with virtualy the same results (less any black bottles).

Overwhelming opinion is that the article is NPOV. Removing tag. -- ShinmaWa^(talk) 17:42, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]
