4 days agoTwo Irish fighters clinch medals at World Boxing Championships in Liverpool
Roscommon middleweight O'Rourke (28), whose sister bowed out at the last-eight stage yesterday, was up against Norway's Sunniva Hofstad and she continued her impressive form at the tournament to get the nod from four of the five judges on a 30-27 scoreline. The four-time European champion can now also call herself a double World medallist, and she will be back in action on Saturday at 1.15pm when she will fight China's Lina Wang for a final spot.
