THE SIDELINES : Ex-Champ Pryor Sets New Fight

Former junior welterweight world boxing champion Aaron Pryor, battling doubts about vision in his left eye, plans to resume his comeback effort with a July 19 fight in Canada.

The opponent for the planned fight at the Winnipeg Convention Center in Manitoba province, Canada, has not been announced. The fight hinges on Pryor passing an eye examination in Winnipeg. Pryor has been banned from fighting in Nevada, New York, New Jersey and California because of vision problems in his left eye.

Pryor, 34, who is from Cincinnati, was cleared to fight May 16 by two ophthalmologists in Madison, Wis. He made a successful return to the ring there by knocking out his former sparring partner, Daryl Jones.
