The United States had three other competitors in action throughout Sunday’s schedule, including Orlando Zamora (55 kilograms | Turlock, Calif.), Isabella Winkler (70 kilograms | Seattle, Wash.) and Rene Camacho (60 kilograms | Houston, Texas). Zamora was defeated via a 4-0 decision by Bulgaria’s Javier Ibanez Diaz, Paris 2024 Olympic bronze medalist.

Winkler showed promise in her international debut, but was defeated 3-2 by Türkiye’s two-time World Championships bronze medalist Sema Caliskan. Camacho concluded his run at the tournament following a 5-0 defeat to England’s Patris Mughalzai.

Team USA will see three boxers in action during Monday’s slate of two sessions. Yoseline Perez will open things up for the Stars and Stripes in Ring A, bout four, against Ireland’s Jennifer Lehane, a Paris 2024 Olympian. The 54-kilogram showdown will begin at approximately 7:45 a.m. ET, with the winner advancing to the quarterfinals.

Malachi Georges, the USA’s 90-kilogram competitor, will enter the ring later in that same session against Hungary’s Levente Kiss in Ring A, bout 13, at approximately 10 a.m. ET. The matchup will be the second of the year between Georges and Kiss, as the two stood toe-to-toe at the World Boxing Challenge Grand Prix Usti Nad Labem earlier this year, with Georges earning the unanimous decision.

Kelvin Watts will wrap the evening for the United States in the 90+ kilogram division against China’s Danabieke Bayikewuzi. Bayikewuzi is a 2022 Asian Games bronze medalist and also finished fifth overall at the 2023 Men’s World Championships. Watts and Bayikewuzi are scheduled to begin at 4:15 p.m. ET.
