In Bangkok at final Olympic Boxing Qualifier

BANGKOK, Thailand – May 25, 2024 —  Alyssa Mendoza (ক্যালডওয়েল, আইডাহোর) picked up Team USA first win with a unanimous decision victory over Bolortuul Tumurkhuyag out of Mongolia in day one of boxing in Bangkok, থাইল্যান্ড.

Mendoza, who won three medals in 2023, is looking for a similar result in Bangkok. In her first round she took the judges’ scorecards 3-2 but Tumurkhuyag grabbed the second round, and the scores were all tied up going into the third and final round.

The Idaho native came out hot in the third round and took all five judges’ scorecards and won on a unanimous decision. Alyssa needs three more wins to qualify for the Paris 2024 অলিম্পিক গেমস.

“Got the first day and win out the way. It was a tougher fight than I expected, but I am moving on and will make those adjustments and get better every day,” stated Mendoza after her first win in Bangkok.

Mendoza will now wait until May 30 for her next fight. She will go head-to-head against Olga-Pavlina Papadatou out of Greece. Mendoza is looking to make history in this tournament and be the first boxer out of Idaho to qualify for the Olympics.
