    Well done Katie Taylor.

    Seriously! Did you hear him saying

    "she's on the Dart platform now on her way home to bray with a medal in her pocket" :pac:

    Was worried about watching this fight on the beeb due to possible bias to Jonas. But the commentaters spent more time talking about katie, her sporting history and rise in boxing, and not a bad word against her.

    And just tipped her for the Gold.

    As for a novelty sport, would not like to meet any of them down a dark ally, and would defenatly not piss any one of them off.

    26 -15, two standing counts. Great Katie.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 25,775 ✭✭✭✭kfallon


    Fooking brilliant, my fav part was the slow motion replay after round 3 of the snot coming out of Jonas nose :pac:

    What a great fight from both girls!

    Jimmy Magee deserves a gold too

    Class from Taylor. The level of consistency of performance that all other Irish athletes should aspire to. Inspirational.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 6,576 ✭✭✭garv123


    It seemed like katie had the home advantage. Didn't even hear cheering from the British over the sound of the Irish support

    Ireland have 2 medals

    Brilliant.

    Carruth with a red line drawn across his head??? :P


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 7,571 ✭✭✭patmac


    8 minutes and a medal that's 7 and a half minutes longer than Usain, before the begrudgers kick in. Serious standard of boxing.That 3rd round of boxing was one of the best ever seen.

    Stunning display. Congrats Katie. The irish support there was great. Felt like she was fighting in Bray


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,711 ✭✭✭keano_afc


    That should have been the final, what an absolutely super fight.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,072 ✭✭✭Dan Chipowski


    Absolutely magical performance from Katie, matched by the Irish in the crowd.

    Great stuff. :D


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,684 ✭✭✭FatherTed


    So.... about those comments earlier from those who said Irish athletes don't get it done when it counted...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 4,656 ✭✭✭cgpg5


    Go on Katie! What a legend! Such great support too
