"Big 12" ready for the demands of the pro ranks

Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games heavyweight boxer Ricardo "Big 12" Brown recently finalized a professional contractual arrangement with United Boxing Promotions in Canada where he now resides

Brown was Jamaica's first qualifier to the Games since 1996, but failed to make progress from the round of 16.

However, speaking on Hitz 92 FM's Sports Grill on Wednesday, he insisted he is ready for the demands of being a pro.

Meanwhile, Brown's coach Dewith Frazer says the time has come for the 6 foot, 7 inch tall fighter to make the transition.
