Assume at these games you cant face someone from your own country in the boxing??

At a guess most countries only take one fighter per weight??

When did amateurs stop wearing headguards incidentally?

[From the Bunker]

Walsh slightly robbed? 

[Club Rossa]

Thought Walsh boxed very well there and was in no way out of her depth.That arsehole of a commentator could only see one boxer in that fight.

[glens abu]

Yeah agree with that,thought she fought well and it was very close but that commentary was unbelievablely  biased

[Don Johnson]

What is the craic with these Briggs and Klitschko videos? Staged?

[Sheedy]

thought Michaela walsh boxed very well and can count herself unlucky. she was obviously disappointed but can hold her head high. agree about the commentators, unbelievably biased.

[tyroneboi]

Yeah and reading the sky sports report it said Adams was 'a class apart' and 'too classy' for Walsh and couldn't believe it was a split decision. Not sure they were watching the same fight.

Barnes looking good for gold here.

well done paddy barnes. close fight.

[JimStynes]

well done paddy barnes. close fight.

I thought he won clear enough. Not an easy fight by any means but Barnes looked that little bit sharper and better on the day.
