Congratulations to Alexandria, VA amateur boxers Keyshawn Davis (right) and Troy Isley, who both finished among the best in the world at the Strandja Tournament in Sofia, Bulgaria.

Davis capped off his first international tournament by winning a gold medal in the lightweight division today.  Davis defeated 2016 Olympian Erdenebat Tsenbaatar of Mongolia by unanimous decision.

Isley lost a 4-1 decision to two-time Olympian and 2011 World Championship bronze medalist Krishna Vikas of India. Isley adds this silver medal to the bronze medal he won at the world championships in 2017.

Davis is slated to join Isley on the USA vs. Ireland tour in mid-March.
