An impressive start to the Olympics for Michael Conlan with a unanimous | :02:58. | :03:02. | |
Give us your thoughts on what was a comprehensive display. | :03:03. | :03:08. | |
I didn't think it was one of my best performances, probably one of my | :03:09. | :03:11. | |
worst in recent times but it's the first fight of the tournament | :03:12. | :03:14. | |
and I've been out here since 19th of July, waiting, and it was tough, | :03:15. | :03:18. | |
My legs didn't do what I wanted them to do today, | :03:19. | :03:29. | |
they wanted to go to war when I wanted to box | :03:30. | :03:32. | |
so I got dragged into a war, I got the win and progressed | :03:33. | :03:35. | |
to the next round and I will get out. | :03:36. | :03:37. | |
How much pressure do you feel being the only male team member of | :03:38. | :03:40. | |
Sometimes, it could have been because I was waiting so | :03:41. | :03:47. | |

today, but I love this pressure cooker, it makes me perform a lot | :03:55. | :04:04. | |
and I was last man standing at the World Championships and I will | :04:05. | :04:06. | |
How confident are you that you will leave here with gold with your | :04:07. | :04:11. | |
Gold is my only option, anything else | :04:12. | :04:16. | |
Well done, Michael, and Michael is back in | :04:17. | :04:23. | |
