Despite two consecutive finals lost on points, the Nantaise boxer Sacha Morice is not giving up and is set to fight this Saturday in Levallois in a higher weight class for a Francophone WBC title.
Sacha Morice did not have the luck she deserved. In the space of a year, the Nantaise reached two prestigious finals, first the French championship, then the European championship. Each time, she lost on points, without ever deserving to lose. A misfortune that could have discouraged more than one athlete, but not the one trained by Alban Georget.
Proposals have not been lacking nonetheless. A stint in England had been considered, but the conditions offered were not worthy of her talent. It was ultimately thanks to the intervention of Gérard Teysseron that an interesting opportunity presented itself. This Saturday, November 14, Sacha Morice will step into the ring in Levallois for a career-changing fight.
For this Francophone WBC title, the Nantaise will have the daunting task of competing in a higher weight class than the one she has competed in up to now. A major challenge, but one that could also allow her to finally find the spotlight she has been seeking since the beginning of her career. The 23-year-old boxer has the level to achieve it, as her two recent finals have shown.
It remains to be seen whether this change of weight class will be an advantage or an obstacle. One thing is certain: Sacha Morice does not fear challenges. Her determination and consistency at the highest French and European levels are testament to this. Eyes will be on Levallois this Saturday to see if the Nantaise can finally capture the title that has eluded her since the start of her career.
