How is Amy Broadhurst fighting in Commonwealth Games?

She is from Dundalk, a border town...it is likely she has a relative from north. Parts of "Dundalk" are across the border

😂😂 So is that the official reason? Or is that what you suspect?

She boxes out of a club in the North. Can't remember which one, but that's the reason.

St Brona's Bc in County Down is where she is a member.

A remarkable week for Northern Ireland boxers in the Commonwealth Games. Amy Broadhurst, Michaela and Aidan Walsh plus Jude Gallagher and Dylan Eagleson all winning gold medals. Vitally important that all the shenanigans in Irish boxing is sorted ASAP. Boxing brings so much joy to so many people and unless the blazers in the IABA and fellow boxing administrators and bureaucrats take decisive action, then weeks like what these boxers have achieved this week in Birmingham will become a thing in the past.

This is great news for Irish boxing in general anyway. These gold medallists are all Team Ireland boxers and potentially eligible to represent us in the Olympics in two years' time (depending on weight divisions and qualifying etc).
