COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (October 27, 2023) -- USA Boxing announced today the three members running for World Boxing office at next month’s inaugural Congress.

The candidates running include Tyson Lee, Dr. Armando Sanchez and Elise Seignolle.

“USA Boxing is proud to have three candidates running for leadership positions within World Boxing,” stated Mike McAtee, USA Boxing Executive Director.

“USA Boxing was the first National Federation (NF) to be approved by World Boxing and has worked side-by-side with our member NF as we focus on developing Olympic-style boxing from the grassroots, national, international and Olympic level. Elise, Tyson and Dr. Armando possess the perfect combination of skills to work collaboratively with other federations to develop Olympic-style boxing around the world as boxing continues to be part of the Olympic Games in LA 2028, Brisbane in 2032 and beyond.”

Lee, who is running for Vice President of the World Boxing Board of Directors, has served as the President of the USA Boxing Board of Directors since 2019 and was elected in 2021 as the Vice President of the Americas Boxing Confederation (AMBC).

She looks to become the first female president of an International Boxing Federation.
