Barnes was level in the third when he had to retire with a nose injury. O'Neill lost a close fight, Hickey won but is out of the tourney with an injured hand. McComb also won well.

[mike222]

Indeed.The three remaining Irish boxers all have winnable semis and there are chances for Gold except perhaps McCarthy at Heavy who might face the Russian Tishcenko.

[scallum]

The boxers in Europe are extremely lucky to have so many Tournaments.

[mike222]

Sean McComb and Jason Quigley both won their semis but McCarthy lost.
