Boxing fights.
The Sunrise Musical Theater also became a footnote in professional boxing's history when, on August 8, 1987, a boxing show was hosted by the theater. In it, International Boxing Hall of Fame member and former two time world Junior Welterweight champion Aaron Pryor suffered his only career loss as a professional fighter, being knocked out in seven rounds by Bobby Joe Young. Future IBF world Cruiserweight champion Uriah Grant also fought at the theater that night.
