by USA Boxing
The 2025 USA Boxing International Open concluded on Saturday, April 19, inside the Pueblo Convention Center in Pueblo, Colo. After 45 bouts on the final day, champions were crowned across the junior, youth and elite divisions.
Saturday featured plenty of action and notable performances from USA Boxing members nationwide. Izlynn Shirley (46kg), from Westside Striking in Waianae, Hawai’i, and Brandon Noriega (50kg), from Rival Boxing Gym OKC in Oklahoma City, Okla., each carried over success from 2024 and earned gold medals in their respective divisions and weight classes.
Shirley scored a flawless 5-0 win to capture her first title at a national event this year, while Noriega also masterfully downed his opponent with a unanimous decision. Shirley and Noriega each captured titles at each USA Boxing national event in 2024, and carry that hunger into 2025.
In the junior male division, Lawrence Davis (46kg) and Tayvon Tolliver (48kg) secured titles for the Real Deal Boxing out of Cincinnati, Ohio. Real Deal Boxing ranked second in the USA Boxing organization for collective wins by gym among the four USA Boxing national events in 2024.
As a gym, Westside Striking collected four gold medals on the day from junior female Izlynn Shirley (46kg), junior male Dreson Eugenio (48kg), youth female Nissi Teulilo (48kg) and junior male Leighton James Patricio (43kg). Westside Striking closed out the 2024 calendar year as the No. 1 club in USA Boxing for wins at national events.
