Isiah Jones was a professional boxer out of Detroit, Michigan.
He reportedly had an amateur record of 52-2, winning the 2016 National Golden Gloves and subsequently turned pro that same year.
Isiah Jones recorded nine victories and seven defeats in his 16 pro bouts.
Jones won his first eight bouts under Roshawn Jones, according to Ring, but lost seven of the next eight after leaving the camp.
He did score an upset over Donte Stubbs, who was unbeaten heading into their 2020 bout. His last fight was a loss to Andrew Murphy in July.
He does have the distinction of boxing in ‘The Bubble’ at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas, in Top Rank’s effort to create fight cards during the onset of the pandemic.
Isiah Jones fought three times in the bubble.
He also lost to rising welterweight prospect Austin ‘Ammo’ Williams on the Canelo Alvarez-Callum Smith undercard in 2019.
Boxer Isiah Jones, 28, was allegedly shot and killed following a dispute with a family member.
Roshawn Jones, who has worked as Isiah’s trainer but is unrelated to the fighter, told RingTV.com that the welterweight had been arguing with his brother Monday evening, August 19, before he was ultimately shot in the head.
The Detroit Police Department has not confirmed that information, but did say a 28-year-old man was killed following an argument with a relative on Monday evening, stating that the incident occurred on the 9300 block of Stout Street.
A murder investigation is underway to bring the perpetrators to book.
