Alexandria, VA amateur boxer Troy Isley will represent the United States during a three-city boxing tour as the US will take on a team from Ireland.

Isley, a 165-pounder who won a bronze medal at the 2017 Elite World Championships in Hamburg, Germany in September, is the most accomplished member of the team.  Isley has competed against an Irish team before, traveling to Belfast as part of the Belfast-Beltway Boxing Classic in 2013.  Isley won his bout during that event.

By the way, the coach of the US team will be Billy Walsh, who was a member of the 1988 Irish Boxing team and coached the Irish team for 10 years.
