Elissandra Santos está na decisão do Mundial de Boxe Sub-19 de 2026, torneio realizado em Budva, Montenegro. A brasileira derrotou a irlandesa Ellen Joyce neste domingo (25), na semifinal do peso até 48 kg, com decisão unânime (5 a 0), e já assegurou pelo menos a prata.

No ringue, Elissandra administrou os três assaltos e teve a preferência dos cinco juízes. Ficou com o primeiro por 4 a 1, manteve o ritmo no segundo e levou o terceiro por decisão unânime. Nas somas finais, três árbitros registraram 30 a 27 e dois anotaram 29 a 28. É a terceira vitória da atleta no torneio, depois de passar pela alemã Cinnia Hofmann nas oitavas e pela polonesa Katarzyna Górnisiewic nas quartas.

O Brasil confirmou ainda dois bronzes. Na categoria até 75 kg, Stephani Amaral parou na semifinal: a russa Daria Antipova levou a melhor em decisão unânime (5 a 0), vencendo os três assaltos para a maioria dos jurados e somando quatro cartões de 30 a 27 mais um de 29 a 28. A brasileira chegou ao bronze ao bater a sérvia Sonja Vuksic nas quartas.

No peso até 55 kg, o bronze ficou com Gustavo Henrique Silva, que perdeu para o russo Islam Magomedov em decisão unânime (5 a 0) e recebeu advertência no segundo assalto. Nas quartas, havia batido o uzbeque Elyor Rustamov pelo mesmo placar.

A delegação começou o Mundial com oito inscritos: cinco deles alcançaram as quartas de final e três chegaram às semifinais. Além dos três medalhistas, o grupo tinha Sara Campos (60 kg), Maira Alves, dos 57 kg, Pedro Cardoso, dos 60 kg, Andrey Reis, dos 65 kg, e Cláudio Santos. Sara parou nas quartas, e Cláudio também; os outros três caíram antes.
