Life

Mossely was born in France to a Congolese father and Ukrainian mother. [5] In 2017, Mossely and Tony Yoka, also a 2016 Olympic Gold medalist and 2015 AIBA world amateur champion from France, gave birth to their son Ali. [6]

She defeated Lucy Wildheart by unanimous decision at Complexe Sportif Chantereyne in Cherbourg on 14 June 2019 to win the vacant IBO female lightweight title. [7]

In 2024, she stood in a bid to become the President of the French Boxing Federation. She wasn't the only female candidate as Sarah Ourahmoune, the Olympic silver medalist, was also standing. However in November, a month before the election, Sarah withdrew, citing the racist and sexist abuse she had received as the reason. [8]
