Pryce is Right again for undefeated Brooklyn heavyweight Pryce Taylor

Erantzun
NEW YORK CITY (June 11, 2025) – Immediately after last Friday night’s impressive fourth-round stoppage of Ed “Tex” Fountain, Brooklyn’s undefeated Pryce Taylor (8-0, 5 Kos) was called America’s best heavyweight prospect by his promoter, Dmitriy hitzak (Salita Promociones).

The 28-year-old Taylor and his manager, New York City-based Attorney Keith Sullivan, agree with Salita.

“They’re (Salita and Sullivan) both right,” esan zuen Taylorrek, “because they’ve seen me fight. Fighting brings the dog out in me. He (Fountain) was a test, real resilient, but like a punching bag that’s ready to fall off the chain. I had to keep hitting him and no way was he thinking about playing it safe. The referee saved his life; he was thinking about not falling down.”

The powerful Taylor entered the ring paying tribute to the late, great George Foreman by wearing a “Big George” T-shirt. Prior to the fight, Taylor noted that he had great success in the pro ranks fighting southpaws like Fountain. Taylor methodically ripped his opponent’s head and body with damaging punches, hurting Fountain in the third round with a straight right-left hook combination, followed by a barrage of shots on the sturdy Fountain who managed to survive the round.

Fountain (14-9, 7 Kos), who was the best fighter the 6’ 4”, 280-pound Taylor had fought in the pro ranks, was rocked from another series of violent combinations, when referee Charlie Fitch had seen enough and waved off the fight 36-seconds into the fourth frame.The fight was a scheduled 6-rounder on the “International Boxing Hall of Fame Night,” presented by Taylor’s promoter Salita Promotions, at Turning Stone Resort Casino in Verona, New York.

“I was excited to be fighting on a show like that,” Taylor added. “He hit me first in the first round, something I always let my opponents do to test their power, gauge patterns, and figure him out. It’s like in baseball when a batter lets a pitch go by without swinging to see what he has on the mound. Because he’s a southpaw, his right is his jab, and he really wanted to use his left power hook. He had a good poker face, but he couldn’t hide it when I hurt him. He tried not showing he was fazed, keeping himself upright, but he felt my power. I like being accurate, especially throwing power punches. I punished him at the end, throwing a body shot, an uppercut, and then two right hooks.”

“I thought George Foreman would have been proud of me and maybe thought he was seeing himself fight when he saw me punch. I put on a show. I’m a combination of Foreman and Muhammad Ali; power punching like Foreman, elusive like Ali with good footwork and light on my toes.

“I’m not sure if this was the best fight of my career, but he was my best opponent and the toughest guy I’ve fought. He came into the ring in good shape and tried to fight. His downfall was Pryce Being Right berriro. I love throwing my straight right and that keeps opening up my left hook to the body.”

Taylor had a 60-11 Erregistro amateur, including a pair of New York Golden Gloves titles, and he was the heavyweight runner-up four times in the prestigious USA Boxing National Championship tournaments. “Pryce’s TKO win was exactly what I expected – dominant, calculated, and explosive,” Sullivan remarked. “He’s not just another prospect; with continued work, he can be the next great American heavyweight. With every fight, he’s proving that he has the tools, the discipline, and the mindset to be a force within this division. We’re building something special, and the world’s about to see it.”
Team Taylor (L-R): Manager Keith Sullivan, undefeated Brooklyn heavyweight prospect Pryce Taylor, promoter Dmitriy Salita, and head trainer Benny Roman Salita.

Taylor will be fighting next in his first scheduled 8-round bout on July 26 in Detroit on a Salita Promotions card headlined by undisputed World Heavyweight Champion Claressa Shields (16-0, 3 Kos) versus Lani Daniels (11-2-2, 1 KO) Zesars arena txikitan.

Sullivanek Andy Lee munduko pisu ertaineko txapeldun ohiarekin batera kudeatzen du Donovan, who is also Donovan’s head trainer.

(L) - Pryce Taylor pisu astunen etorkizun handikoa da(Sullivan Management erabiltzailearen argazkia)

NEW YORK CITY (March 19, 2024) - Pryce Taylor Brooklyngo pisu astuna (3-0, 2 Kos) arrakastaz igaro da saskibaloitik boxeora eta gaur 27 urteko perspektiba garaitu gabeko borrokalari gisa hazten ari da..

Taylorrek esan zuen bere hankak kantxetatik ekarri zituela ringera. Zortzigarren mailan zegoenean baloi bat bota zuen lehenengoz, 6’ 4” Taylor baino lau zentimetro laburragoa da gaur. Pryce-k saskibaloia falta duela aitortu du, baina azkar ohartzen da oraindik jokatu zezakeela, ez zertan taldean, jada ez baitago saskibaloi moduan. «Boxeo moduan nago,” adierazi zuen harro.

apaindutako AEB. boxeolari amateur, New Yorkeko Urrezko Eskularruen Txapelketako bi tituluek nabarmendu dute, Taylor lau aldiz txapeldunorde izan zen AEBetako Txapelketa Nazionalean, besteak beste, Joshua Edwardsi, AEBetako talde astun gisa ordezkatzeko sailkatu dena 2024 Olinpiar Jokoak Parisen.

Iaz, Taylorrek zazpi garaipen lortu zituen New Yorken borrokan Team Combat League-n (TCL), txanda bakarrekoa dena, talde formatuko lehiaketa. Teknikoki hitz eginez, garaipenak ez dira bere boxeo profesionalaren errekorren parte. Taylorrek esperientzia horri etekina atera dio eta denboraldi honetan ere lehiatuko da.

Taylor-ek denboraldi batez saskibaloian jokatu zuen New York estatuko Corning Community College-n. «Duela sei urte utzi nion saskibaloian jokatzeari,” esan zuen Taylorrek. «Nik izan dut 60 Borrokak (afizionatuak, pros eta TCL) eta uste dut boxeolari onenak sparring esperientziarekin iristen direla. Beraz, Esperientzia handia hartu dut. Trebetasun multzo ona daukat eta badakit zer egin behar dudan ring-ean.

«Nire pentsaera beste boxeolariek egiten ez dutena egitea da. Boxeolari guztiek oinarrizkoak ikasten dituzte, baina bota nahi duten guztia, Neure burua botatzen dut jada, eta badakit nola aurre egiten. Botatzen duten guztia defendatzeko gai naiz».

Taylor bide azkarrean jarri du bere entrenatzaileak, Keith Sullivan New Yorkeko abokatua, Taylorrentzat aurkari egokiak aurkitzea ez dela erraza aurkitu duena, nork bere tamainagatik, pedigree amateur eta TCLn parte hartuz, bere hiru pro borrokak adierazi dezakeena baino askoz aurreratuagoa da.

Taylor-en garapenaren beste atal baliotsu bat Jarrell "Big Baby" Miller bezalako pisu astunak borrokatzea da., Otto Wallin, Vladyslav Sirenko, eta Brandon Glanton aipagarrienetako batzuk aipatzearren.

Taylorrek joan den abenduan egin zuen debuta profesionalean, Mike Diorio geldiaraziz hasierako txandan, urtarrila jarraitu zuen 27 emaitza berdinarekin Gabriel Aguilar Costaren aurka. Martxoan egindako azken ekintzan, Taylor-ek distantzia egin zuen lehen aldiz profesional gisa, Antonio Torresen aurka aho batez erabakitzeko lau itzuliko kanporaketa jaurtiz (4-1), 40-36 Hiru aldiz.

Bere azken borroka batean, Sony aretoan ospatu zen, Taylor eraztunera atera zen eta gero eraztunaren inguruan kalejira egin zuen Irlandako bandera bat sorbalda handietan jarrita. (ikusi goiko irudia).

“Keith (Sullivan) bazekien irlandar zale asko egongo zirela han borrokalari irlandar bat ikusteko (Emmet Brennan) nire atzetik borrokan,” azaldu zuen Taylorrek. «Irlandar jendetza handiari erantzuteko modu ona zela iruditu zitzaion, beraz, hiru koloreko bandera irlandarrez jantzi ninduen. Arrazoia zuen, bertaratutako irlandarrek erabat maite zuten, eta zale gehiago egin nituen».

Saskibaloia galtzea boxeoaren irabazia da; Pryce Taylor ikaragarrizko aurreikuspen bat da.
