USA Women Deliver Strong Day Three Performances

On day three of the 2025 World Boxing Championships in Liverpool, England, the United States added two victories to its record. Naomi Graham and Jajaira Gonzalez each won their opening bouts, keeping Team USA in contention for medals.

Naomi Graham Dominates the 75 Kilogram Division

Graham entered the ring against Spain’s Dunia Martinez Mas and controlled the fight from the first bell. She used her right hand to land clean punches and moved her head to slip Mas’s attacks. Graham’s body work wore down her opponent, and the judges awarded a unanimous 5‑0 decision. The Tokyo 2020 Olympian now moves to the quarterfinals.

Jajaira Gonzalez Overcomes a Slow Start in the 60 Kilogram Class

Gonzalez faced Slovakia’s Miroslava Jedinakova. After falling behind 4‑1 in the opening round, she increased the pace and unleashed a flurry of punches. Her pressure forced the judges to see the fight in her favor, and she secured a 4‑0 win. The Glendora, California native, a 2024 Paris Olympian, advances to the round of 16.
