No concert at the AccorHotels Arena this Saturday, May 14, but a boxing match between Tony Yoka and Congolese Martin Bakole! A formidable face—face to which beautiful people came to attend. If Rachida Dati and actor Karim Leklou made the trip, they were not the only ones to encourage the French! The actor Paul Belmondo was present, on the arm of his son Victor, whose career as an actor like his late grandfather has already begun. At their side, Gérard Darmon and his son Jules, 25, the fruit of his love with Mathilda May, whose appearances are rather rare.
Brahim Asloum, a veteran, also supported Tony Yoka with his wife Justine Pouget and posed with ex-Minister of Justice Rachida Dati and the hero of the day. Other lovers have passed a head in the theater. Gilbert Montagné, Nikole on his arm, arrived without the tree costume he wore non-stop for the needs of the show Mask Singer on TF1, recently won by Papillon, who was none other than Denitsa Ikonomova. The singer was very complicit and very close to his wife, married in 1999.
On the other hand, no trace of Estelle Mossely, in the stands or behind the scenes. His ex-wife was celebrating a friend’s birthday according to her Instagram stories. Estelle Mossely and Tony Yoka nevertheless remained on good terms despite their divorce, announced on social networks last November after reversals of the situation in their relationship.
Parents of two children, Ali and Magomed, Estelle Mossely and Tony Yoka have repeatedly toyed with the nerves of their admirers, claiming one day on the other a break and a reconciliation. Despite all the good will they put into it, the two athletes made the decision to separate definitively. A difficult choice that Tony Yoka had commented on his Instagram account: “It’s a page turner. We shared great moments, forever etched in our memories and our history. I only wish her happiness because she is a beautiful person and a great champion.” One of his greatest victories.
At the end of this fight, Tony Yoka conceded the first defeat of his professional career by losing to the Congolese Martin Bakole, on points by split decision of the judges. In difficulty from the first round, the 2016 Olympic champion fought for the first time a boxer better ranked than him. At 30, he now has eleven successes for one defeat.
