In an exhilarating night of boxing at Legends Casino in Toppenish, Washington, Roy Jones Jr., the legendary boxer turned promoter, is set to dazzle the boxing community.
Leading the charge in the main event is Andrew Murphy (7-0, 5 KOs), the hometown hero from Yakima, Washington, who is fighting against Devontae McDonald (4-3, 1 KO). Murphy, under the mentorship of Roy Jones Jr., is defending his National Boxing Association (NBA) Super Middleweight Americas title in an eight-round thriller. This bout is not just a fight; it's a homecoming for Murphy, who aims to impress with power and aggression, characteristics honed at Jones's training camp.
In the co-main event, the evening spotlights Mandeep Jangra, a former Commonwealth Games and Asian Games Silver Medalist, stepping into the ring for the NBA vacant Intercontinental Super Featherweight title over ten rounds. Jangra (6-0, 4 KOs), with his rich amateur background and refined skills under Jones's guidance, is set to bring excitement and technical prowess to the squared circle.
Roy Jones Jr. shares his enthusiasm, "I am very happy to be promoting again back at Legends Casino...I will be bringing with me some treats. One of them is Mandeep Jangra...The second is Andrew Murphy, who brings power and aggression and is always looking for the knockout."
