Recently a very young man and a contender at welterweight not long ago Carson Jones lost his life.
A tragic event last week after Jones lost his life following complications to throat surgery to his esophagus.
The boxing world’s reaction on X shows the respect for him and how taken back they were by his death:
A week on and there is still a grim sense in the boxing world following the news of one of the sport’s good guys passing.
In his career as well as reaching a rating of number four at one time by the IBF, Jones fought former world champions Kell Brook of the UK and Antonio Margarito of Mexico.
He hadn’t fought since 2018 in a professional boxing ring.
His record was 44-16-3-32 KO.
Rest in peace.
