Omari Jones has been one of Team USA’s most consistent boxers since making an immediate splash on the international stage with his silver medal performance at the 2021 Elite World Championships, his first international tournament ever. The 20-year-old-native from Orlando, Fla., recently qualified to the Paris 2024 Olympic Games from the 2024 Olympic Games World Qualification Tournament 1. Jones also won consecutive golds in the 2023 GeeBee International Tournament and the Czech Republic Grand Prix in the 71 kg weight class to continue to prove he is one to watch in Paris and beyond. When not in the ring, Jones can be seen volunteering in his community through his backpack drive or on the golf course working on his skills on the greens.
