Bradley Pryce (born 15 March 1981) is a British former professional boxer who competed from 1999 to 2017. He held the British welterweight title twice, the Commonwealth middleweight title, and challenged for the European light-middleweight title.
Pryce turned professional in July 2001, winning his first fight at the Doncaster Dome, Doncaster, South Yorkshire, England beating David Hines on points over four rounds on a card which included Ricky Hatton, Junior Witter and Ryan Rhodes. His career advanced steadily over the next two years with a total of nine consecutive victories before being given the chance to fight for his first career title. The fight on 28 April 2001 saw him defeat Jason Hall at the International Arena in Cardiff for the WBO inter-continental lightweight title giving him a record of 11-0. One win against Stuart Patterson followed before his first defence of the title against South African Lucky Sambo on 9 October 2001, retaining via a 12-round decision.
Three more wins followed the Sambo victory including a nine-round win over Chesterfield's Gavin Down, a man boasting a 22-1 record at the time. Pryce was soon to suffer his first defeat however, when on 17 August 2002 he lost a six-round contest to Ted Bami, a prospect at the time with a record of 8-1, at Cardiff Castle. A win over Craig Lynch on 23 November 2002 put him back on winning ways before challenging Neil Sinclair for the full British welterweight title on 1 February 2003. The fight, at the Odyssey Arena in Belfast, was to end in disappointment for Pryce as he lost his second professional contest and dropped to 17-2.
