On December 11, Ronald ‘Winky’ Wright and Grady ‘Bad Boy’ Brewer are set to clash Dec. 11 at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan, Puerto Rico, live on Pay-Per-View. Listen to what both men had to say this week.
Five-hundred sixteen years ago tomorrow, Christopher Columbus landed on the northwest coast of a tiny island in what is now known as the Caribbean Sea on his second voyage to the New World, and called it San Juan Batista. Today, we know it as Puerto Rico (meaning “rich port”). On December 11, Ronald ‘Winky’ Wright and Grady ‘Bad Boy’ Brewer will be doing some landing of their own, in “Back to Business,” a match-up of middleweights at the Coliseo de Puerto Rico in San Juan, Puerto Rico, live on Pay-Per-View.
“When I meet Winky, it’s going to be a battle,” said Brewer. “Unlike Columbus who took Puerto Rico without a fight, Winky should expect a war on fight night.”
Wright is looking to return to prominence after a tough loss to Paul Williams in April, while the season two “The Contender” winner Brewer looks to emerge victorious against a bonafied Hall of Famer and arguably the toughest opponent he has faced.
“Just like Columbus discovered Puerto Rico hundreds of years ago, December 11 will be the day that I discover victory once again and show the world that I am still one of the best fighters in the sport today,” said Wright. “I feel great, and I’m ready for a hard fight. Brewer is coming in with high hopes. I’m preparing to deflate those hopes on fight night.”
Discovery of Puerto Rico Day has recently become a prominent holiday in Boricua culture, since the infamous explorer landed there over five-hundred years ago. It is celebrated throughout the country, as well as in New York City which has a thriving Puerto Rican community, with parades, music, dancing, games, elaborate costumes and dynamite cuisine.
