Undefeated Brooklyn Heavyweight Pryce Taylor

Expanding His Brand Returns To Ring This Saturday

In San Juan, Puerto Rico, For His First Main Event!

(July 7th) Now ranked among the top 10 heavyweights in America, undefeated Brooklyn heavyweight prospect Pryce Taylor (12-0, 8 KOs) returns to the ring this Saturday in Puerto Rico for his second scheduled 10-round match, in his career-first main event, against Issac Munoz Gutierrez (18-2-1, 15 KOs).

All the action will be streamed live on Wynn Records Network, starting at 8 p.m. ET, from Coliseo Pedrin Zorrilla in San Juan.

Taylor’s last fight was his first 10-rounder; however, he stopped Calvin Barrett (7-4) in the second round of their fight in Atlanta.

‘I’m definitely a 10-round fighter,” Taylor said. “I’m a 12-round fighter, too, it just hasn’t happened yet.”

A former college basketball, the 6’ 4”, 275-pound Taylor will face arguably the toughest opponent of his young professional career in the 6’ 2”, 250-pound Gutierrez, the veteran Mexican fighter known as “Drago.” Munoz’ two losses have been to 2020 USA Olympian and Olympic silver medalist, Richard Torrez Jr. (11-0), in Munoz’ last fight on December 7, 2024, which Torrez ended in round three with a knockout. Munoz’ other loss was to Jermaine Franklin, Jr. (21-2) in 2023 by way of a 10-round unanimous decision. Franklin Jr., who upset 15-0 Ivan Dychko 2 years ago, has also fought former world champion Anthony Joshua, Moses Itauma and Dylan White.

Taylor has been active under his manager, Keith Sulivan, fighting for the 13th time in less than 3 years, the last 8 under Salita Promotions.

The 29-year-old Taylor is expanding his brand. This will mark his second fight in Puerto Rico having fought there in his seventh pro fight, knocking out Trevor Kotara (4-3-1) in the opening round. Taylor has also fought in Atlanta, Atlantic City, Philadelphia, New York thrice and Michigan 5 times, 3 in Detroit and 2 in Flint.

“The boxing world is the same,” Taylor offered, “only differently named countries. Puerto Ricans love heavyweights and they really loved my first-round stoppage there. I’m very entertaining and know when to dance.” 

“Activity isn’t accidental,” Sullivan explained. “It stems from a lot of planning, persistence, and a commitment to developing fighters through meaningful ring experience, rather than long periods of inactivity. My job is to create opportunities. In a heavyweight division where inactivity has become the norm, through Sullivan Management, I prioritize keeping Pyrce active, prepared, and moving toward the biggest fights in the sport.”

A former New York State Athletic Commission Deputy Commissioner, Sullivan also manages undefeated 3-time, 2-division World Champion Miyo Yoshida (19-5, 1 KO), Bronx NYPD officer Nisa Rodriguez (4-1, 2 KOs), Albanian heavyweight Kristian Prenga (21-1, 21 KOs), lightweight Fei Faiva (6-0-1, 4 KOs) and junior featherweight prospect Brooklyn “The Big Deal” Barwick (5-1, 5 KOs). Sullivan also co-manages IBF Welterweight World title challenger Paddy “The Real Deal” Donovan (15-2, 11 KOs) and his cousin, middleweight Jim Donovan (2-0, 1 KO), alongside coach and ex-world champion Andy Lee.
