Pryce Taylor is a heavyweight boxer and prospect in professional boxing in America that people need to wake up to more.
Sure, the heavyweight division has seen better days.
Boxing as a sport is doing better than ever pound for pound worldwide but heavyweights is a bit all up in the air now.
Lineal heavyweight champion Usyk chucked all his belts in the trash recently.
He didn’t care about them and knows it is about the fights now, not the belts.
People complain that there is no American heavyweights but that is not entirely true. There are always fighters coming through.
Pryce Taylor is one of them.
Fighting out of Brooklyn, New York, the 6’4 American has put together a record of 13-0 with 8 knockouts.
He has not fought many big names yet but returned to action at the weekend in Puerto Rico and performed well.
Winning strongly by UD on points in a 10 round decision over Mexican Issac Munoz.
A fight, and fighter in Taylor, that went, and whom is going, a bit under the radar, surpisingly.
People are only starting to wake up to him now but he is a big heavyweight who can often come in at around 280 pounds and can box a little bit.
His inside fighting can be a bit skillful with short uppercuts he throws on the inside and has a solid right cross when he wants to use it from more long range.
He looks a bit like a young George Foreman back in the day but without as much power and personality.
Even still, Pryce Taylor continues to keep on keeping on and just keeps on winning.
One to watch for in America moving forward.
Maybe Taylor will try to be the next Deontay Wilder of America.
