Denaudo Murray signs deal with Dragon Fire
Western Australian based Cruiserweight prospect Denaudo Murray has signed a long term managerial agreement with Tony Tolj’s Dragon Fire Boxing.
Murray, who makes his debut on March 6 2020’s first instalment of the world-famous ‘Thunderdome’ events presented by Dragon Fire Boxing, hails from Jamaican descent but has spent the majority of his life in Western Australia. ‘The Black Mamba’ opened up about his inception into boxing.
Murray said, “I originally played soccer and I was very good. I had trials for professional clubs abroad, but due to the finances and the injuries I had, I decided not to pursue it any further. I have always been able to take to whatever I do quite naturally and that is what happened with boxing.
“I went to the Onyx Club to train and I found it really hard at first. I watched Jackson England spar and I knew I wanted to get into boxing properly after watching that. Jackson inspired me to get into boxing.”
