Veteran US boxer Carson Jones dies aged 38
American boxer Carson Jones, who twice fought Britain's Kell Brook in a long and successful career, has died aged 38. Jones, who won 44 of his 65 professional fights, was a champion at USBA welterweight, NABA light-middleweight, WBC Continental Americas light-middleweight and NABA USA light-middleweight. He reached No 4 in the world in the IBF's welterweight rankings. He stepped away from the ring in 2023, and recently suffered complications from surgery on his oesophagus. A week ago the former IBF super middleweight world champion Caleb Truax posted on X: 'Boxing community: We need some prayers for former world title challenger Carson Jones. He had complications during a surgical procedure and my friend can use all the good vibes he can get.' Truax then posted on Saturday: 'Rest in paradise to my man. #boxing lost a good one, too early.' Jones narrowly lost to Brook, the former welterweight world champion, on points at Sheffield Arena in 2012, but fought gamely and earned a draw from one of the judges. He then lost by stoppage in their rematch a year later in Hull, getting counted out in the eighth round after being knocked down in the second. Referee Mark Lyson posted: 'Very sad to hear the news about the passing of Carson Jones at just 38. RIP Champ.'
