Yakima Legends Casino to host RJJ Boxing show

RJJ Boxing returns to the Great Northwest for the first time in more than two years on July 14th, with a UFC Fight Pass show headlined by former USA amateur standout Quinton Randall (9-0-1, 2 KOs), at Yakima Legends Casino in Toppenish, Washington. The 3 -year-old Randall, fighting out of Houston, faces Ivan “Cobra” Pandzic (14-1-1, 8 KOs) in the eight-round main event. Randall captured a gold medal at the 2016 USA Nationals, silver at the 2017 USA Nationals and 2017 Pan American Games, and he reached the quarterfinals of the 2017 World Championships. In an eight-round supporting bout, local middleweight Andrew Murphy will put his undefeated record on the line against Isiah Jones (9-6, 3 KOs) of Detroit.
 
 “We’re excited to returning to Yakima Legends Casino,” RJJ Boxing president Lisa Veltre said. “The staff is great to work with and boxing fans there are passionate, especially about Northwest-based boxers like Andrew Murphy, who is trained by Hall of Famer Roy Jones, Jr. Headliner Quinton Randall is a rising star who is in tough against Ivan Pandzic.”
 
“I’m very delighted to be training Andrew Murphy,” Jones added. “It’s so good to be bringing him back to his hometown for his first title fight. It’s a small title but it’s still a title. I’m very happy to be part of his journey with him and look forward to big things from him in the future.”
