Yoseline Perez (54kg), Alyssa Mendoza (57kg) Nab Gold Medals

USTI NAD LABEM, Czech Republic (June 15, 2025) – Team USA's Elite High Performance roster picked up nine medals to close out the World Boxing Challenge Grand Prix Usti Nad Labem this past Saturday. Yoseline Perez (women's 54 kg) and Alyssa Mendoza (women's 57 kg) led the way for the USA with gold medals in their respective weight classes, marking the first international gold medals of 2025.

Perez got things started this morning for the Red, White and Blue, earning a 4-1 victory over England's Charley Davidson. The Houston, Texas native has been notable this year with top two finishes in each of her international competitions in 2025. At the World Boxing Challenge 2025, Perez secured two unanimous decision victories in three appearances to close an incredible week in the Czech Republic. This gold medal marks the first of Perez's Elite international career for USA Boxing.

Mendoza secured her first medal of the calendar year while in Usti Nad Labem, and she did so in a dominant fashion. She earned two unanimous decisions and one 4-1 split decision victory in her three bouts on the week. One of her unanimous decisions came in Saturday's championship bout over Mongolia's Michidmaa Erdenedalai, a Paris 2024 Olympian.

Three other Team USA boxers also competed on Saturday, June 14, each of whom claimed silver medals at the 2025 World Boxing Challenge Grand Prix Usti Nad Labem. Marie Angelis Rosendo (women's 70 kg) and Malachi Georges (men's 90 kg) earned the first international medals of their careers. Kelvin Watts (men's 90+ kg) secured his first silver medal of 2025, marking his second career international medal.

The Stars and Stripes' nine medals conclude the 2025 World Boxing Challenge Grand Prix Usti Nad Labem, and the team will now travel to Astana, Kazakhstan, for the second World Boxing Cup of 2025. Team USA will be represented by 12 boxers, six male and six female, at the World Boxing Cup: Astana 2025. The event will take place from June 30 to July 7.

USA Boxing is led by head coach Billy Walsh (Colorado Springs, Colo.) and assisted by National Resident Coach Timothy Nolan (Rochester, N.Y.), Nicole Burleson (Bethany, Okla.), and Eric Zimmerman (Alexandria, Va.).
