BBC Three: Day 7: 14:00-19:00 Commonwealth Games

forward to seeing this afternoon, we can go over to John Inver deal, is

Nicola Adams. She lit up the arena with a smile on her face. This is

the first time ever that women's boxing has been the Commonwealth

Games. Everybody is looking to her to double her gold tally. The Kenyan

winner who did that fantastic backflip in the ring, immediately as

he left the ring he put on a Celtic that old shirt which divided the

crowd! As you could imagine! As far as Nicola Adams is concerned, we are

just waiting on Warren Baister to come in to the ring, the heavyweight

from England. What is extraordinary about Nicola Adams, the scheduling

was a bit awry for her. Everybody was looking forward to seeing her

but she didn't get out into the ring until about 11:20pm at night and the

place was nearly empty, which was a shame. When she was announced, it

was almost the biggest cheer of the book Cincom petition so far. You can

see the pictures up on the screens and people on Twitter can't have

their messages put up there. There have been more tweets up there

their messages put up there. There have been more about Mick -- about

Nicola Adams and women's boxing in particular. Over the last two years,

she has become a talismanic for women's boxing. It'll be great to

see her in action this afternoon. I think that would be in about 90

minutes. These are the big guys coming. Back to Jim Neely. Very kind

of you, John! I am big when it comes to my width, not to much the height.

These guys have both. Representing Canada, Samir El-Mais!

In the blue corner, representing England, Warren Baister! Warren

Baister started in impressive fashion beating Steven Ward. They

are big boys, aren't they. Two men who boxed in the world

championships a year ago find themselves boxing for a medal in the

Commonwealth Games. From Canada, 33 years of age, born in Abu Dhabi, now

lives in Windsor, Ontario, that is the guy in red, Samir El-Mais. From

Sunderland, Warren Baister, 28 years of age. He is the

Sunderland, Warren Baister, 28 years Warren Baister is in blue,

Sunderland, Warren Baister, 28 years El-Mais is in red. Warren Baister

had to read the contest against Steven Ward from Northern Ireland.

His left hook was probably the best shot in the contest.

The Canadian has a leaky guard. Warren Baister has to find the

accuracy to work with his hook. The second Commonwealth Games for the

Canadian, he defeated Kevin Evans, the veteran Welshman in this

division four years ago. Canadian, he defeated Kevin Evans,

the veteran Welshman in this He lost very narrowly in the quarterfinals

to Stephen Simmons. I think the score was 7-4. I think Warren

Baister will be favoured for this. He needs to find faster hands than

he has shown so far. Good right hand from Warren Baister. The jab is the

important shot here from Warren Baister. Long, straight, keep your

man had day. As Samir El-Mais comes forward, he dips his head,

overcommit. He will walk into a right uppercut from Warren Baister.

He needs to use his jab, bring on the attack. It was a great left hook

by Warren Baister in the second round against Steven Ward that

really turned the tide. There is the left hook yet again. Samir El-Mais

has been hurt a little bit. What a good shot by Warren Baister.

He has a lot of power in that shop. This guy comes forward, leaning in,

he will walk into that, or an uppercut. He just has to get his

timing right. Warren Baister holding a little bit, the referee won't

allow that. Ten seconds to go. Not much between them, but for my money,

Warren Baister with some solid very visible shock, he will have taken

this one. We have been wrong before! I think Warren Baister won

that round. I think he got his opponent with a better quality shots

right hand and a left hook. This guy has waited a long time the box. Here

is the left hook. What a cracking shot. Warren Baister knew he landed

with it. What a sweet punch that was. This fella from Canada must

have a good chin! Two judges have given it to Warren Baister. One

judge has given it to the Canadian, as they raise at quizzical eyebrow.

Is that a little cut? I think that came from the Steven Ward fight, to

be honest. Let's hope it doesn't open up. Two more rounds to go

separating these boxers, place in the semifinals, therefore a bronze

medal at the very least. Good left hand but the Canadian. And

a good right. He has got Warren Baister a couple of times. Another

good punch by Samir El-Mais. We know he is dangerous.

Baister a couple of times. Another good punch by Samir El-Mais. We He

is dangerous with his head, coming forward like that. Warren Baister

will have to watch that, he already has a cut on his eye. Warren Baister

has the longer reach, and he has to use it. Samir El-Mais lost out the

world Championships last year against Thomas McCarthy. He has gone

professional now, much to the disappointment of those involved in

amateur boxing in Northern Ireland. He would have been here. Samir

El-Mais is a very strong man. His punch resistance is very high.

Warren Baister has caught him a couple of times, but that doesn't

seem to faze him. There was the opportunity to land the uppercut.

Bring him on and finish on the hook!

Warren Baister trying to get the right hand in. Wasn't 1 million

miles away. The referee is letting them get on with it. Samir El-Mais

is dangerous with that right hand. A clever left hook by the Canadian.

Warren Baister did rattle his man in the opening round. Another good left

by Warren Baister -- another good left by Samir El-Mais, that rattled

Warren Baister. He needs to use his jab, keep the man away, and when he

comes in use the hook. The jab will keep him off balance. Keep your

hands up, Warren Baister. He got caught again. He did not press on

that advantage. He should have hounded his man. There is the right

uppercut. That wasn't too bad. The second round has gone. It will

be interesting to see how they score this. I think Samir El-Mais that the

better work. -- did the better work. Warren Baister's cancer just too

low. -- Warren Baister's hands are just too low. All three have given

it to the Canadian, who he is just ahead.

Warren Baister will have to go for it.

Warren Baister in blue, from Sunderland. This is the men's

heavyweight division. This is the first of the quarterfinals. He just

met at -- mistyped for London 2012 a couple of years ago. He has is work

cut out if he is going to make it through this. Samir El-Mais has got

his way into this contest pretty well. There is a cut. Was that a

punch or a clash of heads? The doctor is having a really good look.

We can't quite see where it is. It might be on the eyebrow. That is a

bad position, the blood runs into DIA. He is allowed to box. That will

encourage Warren Baister. This is the third round, remember. Temp to

has to go for it. Good left-hand by the Canadian.

Good right hand by Warren Baister, that is better. That hurt him. You

can see he has gone back a little bit. His eye is a mess. He has to be

more aggressive, get your accuracy and timing right. Good left-hand,

again. The old claret is flowing down the right hand side of the face

of the Canadian. The referee has not really spotted it, he is on the

wrong side. Samir El-Mais is coming steaming forward. Another good

left-hand by him. Warren Baister really has to work now. He has got

to put everything into it now. Warren Baister behind on the

scorecard. rounds. Can Warren Baister turn this

around? His opponent is cut and bloody but coming at him all the

time. Warren Baister needs to score. The referee is letting it go. Sharp

right hand. Not a bad bit of officiating and not a bad bit of

punching by Baister. El Mais comes bulldozing forward. Use the feet and

create a little room. Bring him forward, bring him onto the shots

will stop that is what Baister has got to do. Come forward, adjust your

feet. He got caught. I was about to say, one punch from Baister might

win this for him. A good punch by Baister but he has been caught and

the left of L Mase -- the left of El Mais again connecting. No command

from the referee to part. El Mais rubbing heads very nasty Lee. Just a

few seconds remaining, and has El Mais' late surge swung it in his

favour, despite that cut, which Mais' late surge swung it in his

hand at the end. El Mais thinks he has got it and so does Baister. What

do you think? A very close round, wasn't it? I got it wrong last time

do you think? A very close round, with Sean McGoldrick. I hope I

do you think? A very close round, got it wrong this time because I

think the Canadian has done enough to take it. He just wanted it a

little bit more, although I might be wrong. Warren caught him. That was

his head, going in. The referee did not pick it up but you just have to

get on with it. Let's have a look. A clash of heads. That is where the

Canadian got a cut earlier in the round. He was allowed to continue.

We will have to go to the judges. What a close one this is going to

be. Did Warren Baister do enough in the last round? Remember, he had to

win it on at least two of the three cards.

Ladies and gentlemen, we go to the judges' scorecards and we have a

split decision. In favour of the winner and through to the semifinal,

in the red corner, Samir El Mais! The Canadian has got it and Warren

Baister is pretty devastated. Two judges scored it El Mais, 29-28. The

man from Sri Lanka, sorry, Korea, has given it to Warren Baister, who

leaves a very disappointed boxer. And Samir El Mais in this, his

second Commonwealth Games, has got through to the medal stages that the

first time. Very pleased with himself. He did just the little bit

more in the third and final round. He squeezed past Warren Baister.

Waste will be hugely disappointed. This man, as you can see, hugely

delighted. Oh, dear. It just did not work out for Warren Baister. A nice

sake of hands at the end. -- shake of hands. Warren Baister gives his

man a bit of a hug. I am not sure if he is in the mood to do an

interview. I think he is. He is with John, blesses socks.

That looked very close, did you think you had won it? I thought I

hit him with better shots. He was working but they were just scuffing

around my gloves. I thought I had between shots and did enough. What

it is one of those things. When he got cut and there was a lot of blood

all over the place, did you think it was your chance? Yes, but fair play

to him, he was very game and a very experienced lad. He's been around

the block and he knows what he's doing. But I thought I did enough. A

game performance and thanks for talking to us.

The action continues in this highly competitive men's heavyweight

division. Samir El Mais is through but who will meet him in the

semifinals? It is going to be either a Nigerian, or an Australian.

This is the Australian, in blue, made Olympic boxing history when he

became the youngest Australian boxer to compete in the Olympic Games that

only 17. He is now only 19 and he is a big lump. But even bigger is the

man across the ring from him. Just to bring you up to speed, the judges

at ringside from Azerbaijan, Croatia, Wales, Georgia and Brazil.

The referee is the experienced Denis Popoff, from Russia. Remember, five

judges at ringside, all scoring but only three, randomly selected by

computer, will count. A first round stoppage for the big

Nigerian. The world junior silver medallist from three years ago, and

the world youth bronze medallist from two years ago.

The young Australian, by an inch or two the taller. But this Nigerian is

immensely strong. He stopped the Isle of Man -based Polish boxer in

the first round. Obadiah, straight into action. He is a southpaw,

bigger and taller, and faster, but can he stand up to the punching of

the chunky fellow in red, the 26-year-old Nigerian, Apochi? Jay

Opetaia of Australia in blue, and Apochi of Nigeria in red. Richie

Woodhall alongside me. Apochi, the Nigerian, is strong. You look for

the big right hand. I think that might be the shop to throw. I think

this Australian has got a box at distance against this fellow. He

does not need to be taking any risks. Both of them really going for

it, swinging with big shots. I like this Australian, I think he has a

lot of talent. Yes, he lost his opening contest in the Olympics at

17, to the hugely experienced man who was a world champion, from

Azerbaijan. It was only 12-11 on the old computer scoring system. We were

amazed, then. And he is still only a teenager. He will not be 20 until

May next year. Solid shots going in from both men.

Something is going to have to give. Good head movement from Apochi.

Short and solid. Apochi is a bit flat-footed. He probably needs his

opponent to be standing, holding their feet in front of him so he can

work. He will struggle if this Australian gets on his bike and

moves. I think the Nigerian might struggle to cope with that. Very

flat-footed indeed. If you choose the wrong tactics, hold your feet

and stand with him, that really brings him into the contest. This

Nigerian has natural strength and power. Good right hand from Jay

Opetaia, just being a little slow with the right jab. That is better,

trying to slip the left into the ribs. He led with his left, that

time but he is standing very square, the Australian. He needs to be

havens of. -- to behave himself. Apochi, with a solid left from the

Australian youngster. Good jab. Jay Opetaia's head went back and he was

retreating anyway but that was a good shot by Apochi, and he covers

up well. Jay Opetaia has got some nice moves, but occasionally loses

concentration and allows himself to go back onto the ropes, like just

then. His movement goes from positive positions into negative, on

the ropes. He has got a bit of skill but he needs to sort out his ring

craft a bit better. Again, another close one.

Apochi, coming forward, strong with the right hand. It is a bit messy.

Not a loss of quality, there. Jay Opetaia, working downstairs, and

making the mistake of holding his feet and just allowing his opponent

to come back. Let's have a look at the scores.

He was injured in May of this year but they got him patched up pretty

quickly and nursed him through. Showing no signs of any hand injury,

Jay Opetaia. The big fellow in blue, the Australian teenage heavyweight,

Jay Opetaia, who just shaded the opening round. All three judges

giving him the nod. His opponent from Nigeria, Apochi, will know that

and will have do come charging forward. He boxed in the World

Championships last year, incidentally, Apochi, and lost to

the man who beat Jay Opetaia in the Olympics, from Azerbaijan, who went

on to win the bronze medal, as he did in the Olympics in 2012. So they

have got somebody in common. The referee breaks that up. Apochi

being a bit more aggressive in this round. Jay Opetaia has got to get in

first with his right hand and bring his left across. Did not quite get

through the guard. A little rub of heads, there. The Australian has got

to get an move. Movement is the key against the Nigerian. He is strong.

-- has got to hit and move. If you move, he tends to struggle. He

enjoys you holding your feet, that type of contest. You can see him

moving off, Jay Opetaia, and Apochi cannot close down the gap. He is too

slow on his feet. Movement is the key for the Australian. Better work

by the Australian, right hand, followed by a left, straight through

the guard. A clash of heads as well. They have to watch that. Jay

Opetaia, just leaning in with his head. He needs to go to the body,

the Nigerian's elbows came up to him at chest level, a huge amount of

midriff and stomach available for a target. News. Struggling with the

pace. I think he is tiring, holding his feet, there. Jay Opetaia,

pace. I think he is tiring, holding a bit of pressure but Backe comes.

But Apochi is very strong. He is not going to go away. -- but back he

comes. The referee is happy with the holding. Jay Opetaia, under a bit of

pressure, trying to pop out the shots and he has got caught again. I

think he is tiring, you are right. He is wobbling a bit and he has got

caught and he is hurt, and Apochi is threatening to stop this. Suddenly,

Jay Opetaia, not a lot there. He is up on his toes but I think it is a

bit for show. We said movement was key, you hold your feet and you

bring the other guy into it. That is what has happened. He is tired and

has taken a couple of shots. Another round to go and this is good stuff

from Apochi. Years really battering the Australian youngster, who is

visibly tiring by the second. Ten seconds to go and Apochi comes

steaming forward. A couple of good shots in reply so Jay Opetaia has a

bit left. But it is a tired end of the round for the young Australian.

He meanders back to his corner. Apochi, straight back to his. They

will be a lot happier than they were three minutes ago.

This guy here, his fitness to seemed to disintegrate, he fell apart. This

was a better rally at the end of the round by Jai Opetaia, but, before

that, oh dear, he just lost it. You will not disagree with those scores.

First across-the-board goes to Efetobor Apochi.

So, the third, final and decisive round with this men's heavyweight

quarterfinal contest. At stake is a guaranteed bronze medal. Towards the

end of the second round, Jai Opetaia started to fall apart a bit. He got

caught I have very good right hand by Efetobor Apochi and he wasn't the

same box. Can Efetobor Apochi pick it up where he left off? This is a

classic case of a man who is probably more talented than his

opponent but if you don't have basic fitness, the less talented man will

really come into it, gain confidence, he will start to think

you can win. This will be a real test physically for Jai Opetaia, but

mentally, as well. He needs to choose the right tactics. Again,

Efetobor Apochi is coming back. He has slowed down so much. Efetobor

Apochi is starting to look tired, but does he have the reserves of

strength that we see from the boxers from Kenyon, Nigeria and Uganda?

Still there for the taking, midway through the last round. The first

round to the man in blue, the second round to the man in red. As we have

set a hundred times, it comes down to whoever wants it most. If you

don't want to win a contest gets you a Commonwealth Games medal, you

shouldn't be in the medal. Well, they don't give it to you, you have

to earn it. Efetobor Apochi is coming again. All the skills that

Jai Opetaia showed in the first round have gone. He is trying to

rely on a couple of big punches. He is slapping. Efetobor Apochi does

not look to fresh himself. These two have punched themselves almost a

standstill. Efetobor Apochi just he just has to keep it going. Jai

Opetaia is wobbling, swaying. That hurt him downstairs. Nothing coming

back from Jai Opetaia. Ten seconds to go. This chunky Nigerian is

putting on all of the pressure. For my money, I think Efetobor Apochi

has got this. What a great last round. Jai Opetaia had nothing in

his tank. That was very surprising. All the skills, the movement in the

first round, it just went away from him. When he held his feet, he was

getting caught on the ropes, bad ring craft, bad movement, swinging

wildly. He goes to the floor. He missed the target too often. Very

close last round indeed. Who is your money on, Jim? The red corner. I

will go blue! OK, I will give you that pound IOU later, assuming you

are right! Ladies and gentlemen, we have the

scores. The winner by unanimous decision and now through to the

semifinal, in the red corner, from Nigeria, Efetobor Apochi! I will get

that point later, Richie. Efetobor Apochi has gone through having lost

the opening round, he took the last two rounds. The 26-year-old from

Nigeria has got himself a medal. For a big man to do that! He must be

fit! A delightful finish. Here it is

again. Degree of difficulty, 6.2! He deserved that, Ritchie? Yes, he did.

He wanted it more. Efetobor Apochi goes through.

Well, the big fella clearly very happy about winning there. The

gymnastics final is happening over on BBC One. On the red button, you

can watch hockey. It is New Zealand against Canada. If you hit the blue

button, other options are available depending on your provider. Of

course, we have all the sports live on the website. Perhaps Babington?

Awesome table tennis? Or maybe squash? --

we are going to go back to boxing, the men's heavyweight division.

Scotland's Stephen Lavelle is heading towards the ring.

The rift is about to come off here! In comes the local favourite, born

in Glasgow, lives in Glasgow, coached by Joe Ham senior.

in Glasgow, lives in Glasgow, Stephen Lavelle. 23 years of

in Glasgow, lives in Glasgow, champion. He is in

There is Amritpreet Singh, from India. In the red corner,

representing India, Amritpreet Singh!

In the blue corner, representing Scotland, Stephen Lavelle!

The man in blue, from Scotland, Stephen Lavelle is giving away about

half a foot in height from this enormously tall teenager from the

Punjab. So, Scotland in blue, India in red. The second contest for

Stephen Lavelle. He came through against Kody Davies. Amritpreet is

enormously tall. Stephen Lavelle I think will try to get inside him.

Also the right hand over the top is the shot he will concentrate on.

Look how low the left hand of the Indian is.

You can see the problem is that Stephen Lavelle has. It was a good

right hand to the head of the Indian. The tactics right from

Stephen Lavelle, gets on the inside. He needs to switch the attack from

body to head, finish on the hook, the right hand over the head.

Good right hand from the Indian boxer. He has to use his enormous

reach advantage. He wasn't too far away with that right hand, Stephen

Lavelle. He just has to watch the right from the taller man. Good

right by Stephen Lavelle. Not much between them. Stephen Lavelle is

doing the better work inside, when he can get inside. Good right from

the body by Stephen Lavelle. Stephen Lavelle is, I think, the outside of

his left eye. The referee from Finland is having a look at it. He

is looking at the face of the Indian. I think Stephen Lavelle is

cut. Amritpreet is slapping a bit. Good footwork by Stephen Lavelle. He

gets back inside. Box on, says the referee. Into the

last 30 seconds. Stephen Lavelle is coming steaming forward. It is

messy, scrapping. He has to get on the ropes. He wants to keep him

square. Another good left hand by the Scotsman. The long arms of the

Indian keep dropping down. Yes, there is a cut. It looks like an old

one that has opened up. They just need

there is a cut. It looks like an old one that has opened up. They just to

try to stop the flow of blood into the eye. Stephen

try to stop the flow of blood into Lavelle gets in with a fantastic

shop, a simple jab. The scores have gone with the Scotsman.

The first round of this heavyweight quarterfinal goes to the shorter of

the two, in blue. It wouldn't be hard to be shorter than this fella

from India, who is only 19 years of age, but is six foot six. He is the

tallest boxer in the whole tournament. Plenty of opportunities

for Stephen Lavelle to land the right hand over the top. Amritpreet

has started to come out with the jab, but he is not very accurate.

Stephen Lavelle has to jump to his left and threw in the hook. A couple

of good shots thereby Amritpreet. Stephen Lavelle has to be careful he

doesn't get picked off that range. He needs to stick to his left and

moved that right hand over. You are not allowed to hang onto the ropes.

Amritpreet is inviting Stephen Lavelle to go forwards. Stephen

Lavelle has to work more on the inside. That wasn't a bad shot! His

eyes seems to be fine, incidentally. -- his eye.

What a belting shop that was by Stephen Lavelle. Amritpreet is

starting to look a little bit wobbly. If he can land again... And

again by Stephen Lavelle! And again. Amritpreet can't just sit back and

admire his work, he has to keep pressing. Stephen Lavelle is very

strong. Not the best man in terms of the work, he is no dancer, but he

can punch a bit. That could see him through if he keeps going and

doesn't get tired. Amritpreet leaning again. He gets him again

with a right, then the left. He just needs to draw the jab of the

opponent. Slip, then through the right hand over almost

instantaneously. as well. A good right hand to finish

and a little lad, just to remind his man. And Lavelle has a very short

trip to his still in the blue corner. He will be pretty pleased

and pretty pleased when the judges' scores go up. Better work from

Lavelle. He caught his opponent with the cleaner shots, more

eye-catching. Right hand over the top, there. A good shot, indeed.

Coming up well, just get scored with the jab. When he is at range, years

going to get caught, which is why he has to go forward, slip the shot and

then over the top of the right hand. That is what I'm talking about. That

was the best right-hand of the round. The best punch the contest.

-- of the contest. One judge has given it to the Indian, and the

other two have given it to Lavelle, who is in pole position. There is

the Scottish Boxing Day. One or two nails getting chewed. What a game 's

Glasgow has posted, the Scots on home territory. And what a boxing to

and we have had at the SECC. We are within punching distance of the

wonderful River Clyde. The man in blue knows the river well, the

Glaswegian, Stephen Lavelle, coached locally. He is now less than three

minutes away. He can guarantee himself a Commonwealth Games medal.

Don't swing your man around. This is not strict recon dancing. --

strictly come dancing. He needs controlled aggression. He does not

have to be selling. He has to finish on his left foot after the right

hand he throws over the top. He has got to be sensible about it.

Controlled aggression is what he needs. Ducking down a little bit and

the referee telling him to keep his head up. Is Stephen Lavelle tiring a

little bit? It is getting a bit scrappy. I think they are both

tiring. Lavelle has got to keep it going. Yes, not too bad. He is just

trying to split them up, now. It is so close, Lavelle does not want to

get a warning but he has landed with a very good right hand and

Amritpreet is not moving the way he did in the opening round. He has

slowed down considerably. If Lavelle can get to him again with single

slowed down considerably. If Lavelle shots like that, he can make sure of

a place in the semifinals. You can see, also, to finish on the left

hook is the opportunity. Manfred's -- Amritpreet's left hand keeps on

coming down as he makes the shot. Lavelle has got to work on the

inside. When you get the opportunity, work away, showed the

judges you are willing to work on the inside. He needs to be careful.

Into the final minute. Lavelle was leading at the start of this round,

and he is probably still in that position and he will want to keep it

that way. His head going down as his opponent is pushing him down. The

referee says the Indian is that full. Come on, Stephen Lavelle, you

need a couple more telling shots, to win this one. He is getting caught

himself, now, a slashing right-hand and unintended uppercut by

Amritpreet. -- and intended. The Indian is finishing the round a bit

stronger. He needs to attack. The last 20 seconds are absolutely

crucial in a close round like this. Another sneaky ride from Lavelle,

who is really exhausted now. There is nothing much left from either

boxer. It has got very messy. Don't hit round the back of the head. Not

for the first time. But Lavelle is about to go, and I think Stephen

Lavelle has done enough to take this. He reckons he has. I think he

has as well. He just did the slightly better work in that round.

There was a period in the last 45 seconds when Amritpreet started to

come back into it and looked like he was finishing stronger. But then

Lavelle just lost him again. A good right hand over the top. He just

found a lift book, it would have been better. He gets picked off

occasionally at range but overall, you have to say he did enough to win

the last round. He wins it, for me. He conceded so much in terms of

height and reach, Stephen Lavelle. His opponent is probably six inches

taller than him. Ladies and gentlemen, we have the

judges' scored totals, and the winner, by unanimous decision, and

now through to the semifinal, in the blue corner, representing Scotland,

Stephen Lavelle! The Commonwealth Games semifinalist on home turf. And

to a man, woman and child at the SECC, they are on their feet for

Stephen Lavelle. It was a tough contest against a man who physically

had so much more in the way of advantage but Lavelle's

determination some good, hard work and a big engine and a big heart has

got him through. Stephen Lavelle has won it on all three judges

scorecards. He is in danger of being hard to death by the Scottish

coaching team. -- Huggett to death. One more match to go and then he is

into the final. Stephen Lavelle has got himself a Commonwealth Games

bronze medal on home turf and he is talking to John.

You have got a medal! I'm absolutely delighted. He was so tall and

awkward to deal with but I ground it out like I did in the first fight.

I'm delighted with my medal. That is for blood go. Fantastic. When you go

into the ring against somebody who is so much taller than you, what is

your immediate thought? To arms, two legs, no matter how big or how

small, it is the same tactics. They say it is not his size, it is his

heart and fight, and I had a massive heart. It was a bit scrappy to watch

but I got the job done and I'm delighted. The crowd loved it. It

does not matter about the quality. What do you do between now and

Friday and the semifinal? Probably chill out a little bit. Not too

much. We will keep sharpening, one-minute rounds, nothing too much,

just keeping the quality up. But now it keeps going. What kind of friends

and family are here? I stay about ten minutes away from the venue.

Fantastic. A few people are at work, which I can understand but some of

my friends and family have taken holidays. The crowd helped me again

today. It was fantastic. It was great to watch. Congratulations.

So who is going to take up the last place in the semifinals of this

men's heavyweight division? Is it going to be this fellow, the

22-year-old from New Zealand, who lives in Auckland, David Light, or

is it going to be his opponent from Kenya, Charles Okoth, now 26.

The first time we have seen Charles Okoth, he got himself a buy. Only 13

competitors in the heavyweight division so he was fortunate to get

a bike, so one victory, and he is into the medals. The judges are from

Russia, Georgia, Denmark, Italy and Azerbaijan. There will be a big roar

when the referee's names announced because he is from Scotland.

Representing New Zealand, David Light! He produced the knockout of

the tournament in his opening contest. In the blue, representing

Kenya, Charles Odhiambo Okoth! And the referee for this one, ladies

and gentlemen, from Scotland, Andrew Caulfield! Chiefs the former

Scottish ABA champion, and a representative at light heavyweight

in the Auckland Commonwealth Games way back in the day. Two men I know

quite well, when McCulloch and Richie Woodhall, won gold medals

then. -- Wayne McCulloch. So, Scotland's Andrew Caulfield brings

them together. We are delighted to report that the Malaysians boxer,

Omar, who was knocked out in spectacular fashion by David Light,

recovered in time to take his place the following day. It looked very

worrying, you have to say. David Light caught him with a corrosion is

left upright on the point of his chin and he went down. -- a

ferocious left hook, right on the point of his chin. Now David Light

has a more difficult opponent in the shape of the 26-year-old man in blue

from Kenya, Charles Okoth, who is a lot bigger and looks a lot stronger.

David Light, taking his time. He boxed in the World Championships in

Kazakhstan last year, lost his opening contest to an Uzbek

fighter. Understandably, the Kenyan is a bit tentative. He has obviously

seen the knockout David Light produced. He is keeping his distance

and having a look at the New Zealand man. Varies that left again, just a

whiff of it. -- there is. He did not show him the folic but Charles Okoth

will be wondering what is in that left hand, and the answer is

dynamite. You can see, he is on the back foot, inking he does not want

to get on the end of one of the left hooks. He has got to watch what he

is doing. That is a good left jab. David Light, looking very

comfortable. No pun intended, but he is pretty light on his feet for a

big man. He is six foot one. Giving away a bit of height to his

opponent. To the body from the New Zealander, slipping away from the

punch very nicely. It is nice to see him doing a bit of boxing because we

did not get the chance to see what he could do because of the knockout.

He looks quite competent. Charles Okoth has got to watch what he is

doing. When he moves away, his right hand comes down a bit, and also,

when he is blocking the jab, he does it with his right hand. David Light

then decides to think the jab and through the hook, he will walk onto

one. -- feint the jab. It is my understand that no longer will

winners of the Oceana championship automatically qualify for the

Olympics. I am led to believe they will have two enter the Asian

qualifiers to get through. There is a chance we might not see any boxes

from Australia and New Zealand, or the islands around them, in the

Olympics ever again, but who knows? Strange things going on in the world

of amateur boxing. A right hand from David Light. It is a good opening

round. He has not been called with anything meaningful. Charles Okoth

looking rather clumsy and David Light gets him again with a good

ride. The New Zealander upping the pace well and putting pressure on

his man. He is boxing very nicely indeed. A very good round of boxing.

David Light boxing well. I think Charles Okoth, visibly shaken at

times but his tactics kept him on the outside because of the powerful

left hook his man has got. I think Charles Okoth is better at range. He

gets clipped and made the mistake of falling short with the attack and

gets caught with a little left hook which made him very unsteady on his

legs. A tentative round from the Kenyan. Not a good one, I did not

think. Yes, they have all gone per David Light. You can't disagree.

Absolutely not. -- gone for David Light. You are too strong and too

fast for this guy. I want your hands back nice and tight. I want some

real pressure on him. You hear me? David Light, 22 years old. BELL

The heavily muscled man in blue is Charles Odhiambo Okoth, the 2060

Rock from Kenya but he is getting caught with some good shots by New

Zealand's highly exciting 22-year-old, David Light.

Zealand's highly exciting Okoth is trying to keep him at range

but his work is not very accurate. He keeps on missing the target with

the right hand which is why he falls into his opponent. He will walk onto

another one of those left hooks if he is not careful. He has to be more

accurate at long range, the Kenyan. That is his problem, he keeps

falling. A little banging together of heads. Andrew Caulfield did not

give a command and David Light took full advantage. A good start to the

second round by the youngster, who dominated the opener. Charles

Okoth, falling short. Nothing much behind the jab. He probably needs to

double up a little bit. Good footwork by David Light. You can see

that he is dusty holding the left-hand -- just holding the left

had ominously known. -- ominously low. All the aggression is coming

from one. -- from David Light. That is better boxing from Charles

Okoth. One see how his man the inside, that is when he is

vulnerable. The referee is just saying to watch the use of the

forearm. The officials at ringside are very

qualified. You can either be a judge or a referee. I think that was a

better round for Charles Okoth. It will be closer. Charles Okoth has

managed to keep his man at bay for longer periods. That was a swinging

right by David Light, which would indicate he is beginning to get

tired. He is puffing a little bit. We know that the canyons are so

supremely fit. -- the athletes from Ken your -- Kenya.

He didn't really land a clean shot. Definitely tiring at the end.

So, David Light where he wants to be, but he is breathing pretty

heavily. We will need to see what he has left. It could be that Charles

Okoth picks up on the fact that his opponent is tiring. The man in blue,

the heavyweight from Kenya will need to win this last round by a country

mile, or stop the guy in red, the 22-year-old from Auckland, New

Zealand, David Light. Definitely showing signs of fatigue at the end

of the second round. Better by David Light, keeping his man must, keeping

him on the back foot. Charles Okoth is boxing better, keeping his man at

bay. David Light is walking onto the

straight shots from Charles Okoth. Better once again by David Light.

Charles Okoth is holding. This speed has dropped considerably from the

first round, as you would expect. A nasty little rub of heads. David

Light looks really tired. Charles Okoth is not really picking up on

it. Each other's work rate. There is a bit left by David Light. He is

calling up in his reserves. Good footwork by Charles Okoth. David

Light just capturing his opponent. I think David Light has done enough,

unless it gets ambushed. I can't believe Charles Okoth has not thrown

his left hook. I think David Light is open to that. He drops his arms,

he just hasn't produced it. David Light must know that he only has a

minute to go and he is winning it. I think New Zealand have got

themselves a men's heavyweight medal here at Glasgow at the expense of

the man from Kenya, Charles Okoth. Charles Okoth looks exhausted. David

Light did get tired, but Charles Okoth did not pick up on it. A very

scrappy round. A couple of good jabs from David Light coming forward. He

nearly walked onto one there. Dumping Charles Okoth did enough to

win it, overall, I think it was a better performance from the New

Zealander. All is about to be revealed. Ladies and gentlemen we

have the totals. A unanimous decision. The winner, through to the

semifinals, in the red corner, representing New Zealand, David

Light! David Light has got it. He didn't lose a single round.

New Zealand have got themselves a Commonwealth Games medal. This

appointment for Kenya, who brought a strong team here. So good to see

them back, contesting at the Commonwealth Games. David Light is

the man who has won it. He is ecstatic.

So, lots of people very happy, McGoldrick there. Samir El-Mais beat

Warren Baister. Stephen Lavelle, guaranteed medal for him. So, the

semifinal line-up for the bantamweight and heavyweight

division. It looks like this: We have moved inside. It is a bit

inclement outside, a bit of wind and rain floating around. July in

Glasgow, he would have expect that? Please get in touch with us. Have a

look at the website. We will be back to the women's boxing in a few

moments, but let's tell you what is coming up between now and seven

o'clock. Women's boxing coming up in a few minutes. A place in the

semifinals for the hockey is in store between South Africa and

India. We will see medals decided in the wrestling mat. And then some

swashbuckling action in the table tennis. Stick around for that. Back

to boxing. Quarterfinal number one. The judges

at ringside are from Morocco, Korea, Belarus and Uzbekistan. For a

two-minute rounds of boxing. In the red corner, representing Jamaica,

Sarah Joy Rae! In the blue corner, representing

Northern Ireland, Michaela Walsh. So, the referee just giving his last

instructions. The flyweight quarterfinal, then. The first of a

scheduled for two-minute rounds. Boxers from Jamaica and Northern

Ireland. The Jamaican is wearing red. Sarah Joy Rae, 32 years of age,

part of the four strong Jamaican team. Opponent, wearing blue,

operating out of the orthodox stance, is Michaela Walsh. Lucy

O'Connor is beside me. Michaela Walsh was dazzling in her opening

bout. She had the privilege of being the first ever women's boxer to

compete in the Commonwealth Games. What an opening that was. She showed

great balance, great poise, impressive footwork. And lightning

combinations. A tentative start here. Lots of respect being shown.

Sarah Joy Rae is the taller of the two. Michaela Walsh just catching

her as she moves forward. It is the first out of the competition for

Sarah Joy Rae. She got a bye in her opening round. It is the first time

that Sarah Joy Rae is experiencing the atmosphere here at the SECC. It

could take a little bit longer to find the rhythm and timing than

Michaela Walsh. That is so crucial in a boxer's repertoire. Most boxers

that you speak to prepare to get into the competition early. Just to

get into the rhythm, to dust off any ring rust. It is not an advantage to

get the by, necessarily. There is the bell.

Not a great deal in that. I think Michaela Walsh had a higher volume

of shots. I think the judges might go with her. She starts and finishes

the exchanges. That will catch the eye of the judges.

The first round when unanimously then to Michaela Walsh. Daschle went

Sarah Joy Rae is based in Switzerland. Representing Jamaica.

We move into the second round. Sarah Joy Rae is wearing red, she conceded

the opening rounds to the boxer wearing blue, Michaela Walsh, from

Northern Ireland. As Michaela Walsh leads the attack, she is very good

at getting out of range. Sarah Joy Rae has the longer range. Michaela

Walsh is very nimble on her feet. She throws lots of punches, a high

volume of punches, but stays nice and safe as she comes out of range.

Michaela Walsh is the 14th ranked boxer in the world at weight. -- at

her weight. Just three women's weight class is being contested here

at the Commonwealth Games. Boxers who find themselves in between those

weight categories have an invidious choice to make, whether to go up or

down. Michaela Walsh decided to go down, competing here at 51

kilograms. Michaela Walsh not elect them to use

her reach advantage. She is either jumping in with bent arm shots were

waiting far too long to lead the attack. A little bit tentative.

Every time she tries to throw a punch, Michaela Walsh comes back

with three or four punch combinations. Some attention is

required here. Michaela Walsh using her legs to

tremendous effect, staying out of trouble. J comes forward with a

tremendous combination. Having conceded the opening round, I think

Sarah Joy Rae conceded the opening round, I think

rounds down. Desperation from Sarah Joy Rae at the end of that round,

coming forward and punching the near. Michaela Walsh pounding the

body and the head. Switching the attack, a very capable performance

again in that second round and all three judges giving Michaela Walsh.

Two rounds to go there. We are down to the final eight there

in the quarterfinal stage. Immediately as the bell sounds Sarah

Joy Rae is led back to her corner, just some adjustments needed to her

waistband. You can see a slight nick on the bridge of her nose. We begin

this round. Sarah Joy Rae has started quickly, but Michaela Walsh

continuing to use her legs to evade the forward forays of the Jamaican.

Despite being the taller boxer, Sarah Joy Rae is being picked off by

clean potshots. There is a distinct difference in stance and balance

between these boxers. Michaela Walsh has beautifully balanced report, a

beautifully balanced, stable base. -- beautifully balanced footwork.

The coach just adjusting the best. The rules are that the white

waistband must be visible at all times -- adjusting the vest. It

gives you an idea of where the phrase below the belt comes from,

anything above the white waistband is there, anything below it is

illegal. That is why it has to be visible. Not just the referee being

overly officious, it does serve a purpose.

Michaela Walsh stepping off to the side, happily to a loud Sarah Joy

Rae to run into her. -- to allow. Michaela Walsh a three-time national

champion. Won and national title at 57

Rae of Jamaica. Conceded the opening three rounds. Michaela Walsh has

demonstrated that she is an impressive offering general. -- ring

general. Her greater experience has come to the fore. We are into the

fourth and final round. Sarah Joy Rae of Jamaica. Takes a hard left

hand, and another one. One was a court shoe -- corkscrew shot. I can

see elements of Katie Taylor in her boxing, dare I say it. I am sure she

would have been one of her role models. Lovelace Dale, relaxed and

fast hands -- Lovelace style. Just increasing the distance, Sarah Joy

Rae is struggling to close it effectively. Having no success, when

she is trying to land a short it is inevitably where Michaela Walsh wars

and not where she currently is. Huw Jones of the feet and legs from

Michaela Walsh. Bash Mac -- beautiful use of. Accurate pot shots

continuing to come from the globs of Michaela Walsh. --

Sarah Joy Rae reduced to chasing shadows here in the boxing ring.

There is the bell. Nice to see that embrace but there can be no doubt

about the vector and little doubt about you has progressed -- about

the vector the key to amateur boxing, it is a

physical game of chess, force your opponent to miss, and capitalise on

that by landing your own shots. Nice to see the mutual respect between

the boxers. The winner by unanimous decision and through to the

semifinal, in the blue corner, representing Northern Ireland,

Michaela Walsh. Delight: among the Northern Ireland supporters. I

unanimous winner over Sarah Joy Rae of Jamaica. She is receiving a warm

reception from the crowd, but this woman was better in every department

and that is the moment of the announcement which confirms her as a

medallist in the Commonwealth Games boxing tournament, the first there

has ever been in the history of the Commonwealth Games. Michaela Walsh

has secured herself some medal hardware, now the question remains

which colour will it be? Well done. Thank you very much. I did not know

nothing about it, I had a slow start, she was very awkward, very

big. If I had done what I had done in the last round I would have run

it handily enough, but I am happy with my performance and I have made

history by being the first ever medallist. I stuck to the task, I

had to change my tactics and they could not get my punches off, but I

changed the tactics and I won the fight. You fought at 54 in the

Europeans, here you are at 51, is that the struggle, what have you cut

out of your diet to make the wait? I'd boxed 37 last year. -- 57. It

was decided I had to go up or down, I am a hard trainer so I decided to

go down. I can give you my diet, that is a secret. Can't get much

lower than the scan you? I might do 48 next year! That is a worry to

everyone else. Thank you. Thank you. We await the introductions for the

second quarterfinal. In the red corner, representing

India, Pinki Rani. In the blue corner representing part

flyweight. The boxer winning blue from Papua

New Guinea, Jacquiline Wangi, 18 years old, the national champion.

The opponent is the 11th ranked boxer anyone all died 48 kilograms,

hugely accomplished, and you can see from the start she has made that she

knows her way around the boxing ring. That is Pinki Rani of India.

Pinki Rani, to give you an idea of her ability and experience, she is

the reason, as she gets another hard right cross, she is the reason why

the legendary Millicom is not here representing India. She eliminated

her at the Indian selection trials and that is how she secured her

place. That is not a front Jacquiline Wangi. -- that is not a

-- naughty. An element of frustration the front Jacquiline

Wangi, she is under pressure and has been since the first bell. Pinki

Rani is relentless in her pressure, not giving Jacquiline Wangi and

moments rest. Combinations landing flush on the chin of Jacquiline

Wangi. Pinki Rani is a wonderfully versatile and accomplished boxer.

The gap in the experience is considerable. The gap in ability as

well. Strong opening round for Pinki Rani.

We have heard good things about Pinki Rani before she came to this

competition, I think we can see why she was kept. Hardly seems to be out

of breath after throwing numerous combinations. -- she was tipped.

That was a bit naughty front Jacquiline Wangi. -- from.

So, we move into the second round. The boxer in blue, Jacquiline

Wangi, from Papua New Guinea, 28 years of age. The boxer wearing red,

Pinki Rani, from India. She began the opening round in a manner in

which he is demonstrating the second. Beautiful straight shots

going in. She went down to the body effectively. Only a couple of

punches getting through, but every time Jacquiline Wangi tries

punches getting through, but every her shots away, she is paying

punches getting through, but every heavy price by Pinki Rani. She is

being beaten to the punch every time by Pinki Rani. Jacquiline Wangi is

just think too far out of range, she is inviting Pinki Rani to capture,

which he is doing, nearly every time. Beautiful, swift right hand

counter by Pinki Rani. That is a howitzer upper right-hand. Pinki

Rani shoves Jacquiline Wangi back to the turnbuckle. She is just allowing

Pinki Rani free shots. Good rear hand thereby Jacquiline

Wangi, but the reply straightaway by Pinki Rani. The variety that is on

display is wonderful to behold. Assuming you are Jacquiline Wangi,

that is, because she is the boxer on the receiving end of it. The bell

then ends the second round. There can be little doubt as to which

direction the round will be scored in. Again, it is the volume of shots

that does it for Pinki Rani. Catching her at will. Hands dropping

down at your hips. Another very capable round by Pinki Rani. The

judges scoring it as 10-8 round. The scoring system does not resemble the

professional code of boxing. So, to rounds completed, to rounds

to go. Pinki Rani is putting on a

masterclass here. Jacquiline Wangi is getting a boxing lesson, the

boxer in blue. Pinki Rani is up on her toes, has a nice rhythm, nice

balance. Jacquiline Wangi is attempting to give it a go. A good

right hand by Jacquiline Wangi. Short on that occasion. Pinki Rani

is demonstrating effective footwork. She has to keep urging dying, she is

offering Pinki Rani free shots. She has to get her chin on her chest,

get her hands up. She is making it easy for it Pinki Rani to get her

shots. All too often, Pinki Rani is finding an inviting home for her

shots, from the left and the right. This is the opening bout for both of

these boxers. Jacquiline Wangi wasn't really paying attention

there. Again, for the second time during the course of the bites,

Jacquiline Wangi is not heeding the instructions from the referee.

Helping herself to every shot. Maybe she didn't hear the instructions. I

think it is frustration. She is struggling to land many shots. Pure

frustration, I think. It is the opening bout for both of these

boxers here at the tournament. Pinki Rani has just settled into her

rhythm instantly. Jacquiline Wangi has not been allowed to settle into

her rhythm. Looking at Pinki Rani in the corner, she doesn't look out of

breath, regardless of the fact she has hardly stopped throwing her

punches. Another hugely decisive round for the Indian boxer. Looking

as comfortable and composed as could possibly be. It is all one-way

traffic in favour of Pinki Rani. Into the fourth and final round. The

boxer wearing red, Pinki Rani... A standing count. The

boxer wearing red, Pinki Rani... A aggression and clean punching is

coming from the boxer in red, Pinki Rani. A standing count administered

against Jacquiline Wangi. The hard shots continued to thunder home,

particularly from the right hand of Pinki Rani. Is she going for a

stoppage? Jacquiline Wangi is taking lots of risks. Her defence is so

low. When your opponent has such a high work rate, you need to hold

your hands up to protect yourself. The right hand driven in by

Jacquiline Wangi, but immediately countered by a left over the top

from Pinki Rani. Jacquiline Wangi, two-time national champion of Papua

New Guinea, but the 18-year-old is really struggling to stay at the

races with Pinki Rani, the 24-year-old from India. The boxers

are exchanging right hands. Another hard right from Jacquiline Wangi.

She is looking for single shot success. Right contour -- a right

counterattack by Pinki Rani. We are approaching the conclusion. A

jolting left from Pinki Rani. No doubt about who won the contest.

Pinki Rani raises her arm immediately. She returns to her

corner. Certainly, she is victorious. You have to credit the

courage of Jacquiline Wangi, she never give up. Hugely proficient

performance by the Indian boxer. Incredible angles, incredible

defences. One to watch in this competition, Pinki Rani from India.

The right arm went up immediately from Pinki Rani. Now, the formality

of the verdict. A unanimous decision in favour of the winner, true to the

semifinals, in the red corner, representing India, Pinki Rani. So,

the opening bites and opening deck jury for Pinki Rani. It is enough to

secure her place on the podium. She is three to the medal stages.

here at the SECC. Canada's Mandy Bujold. 27 years of age. There is

her opponent, Kristy Harris from Australia. So, Mandy Bujold from

Canada wearing red, Kristy Harris of this wearing blue. Kristy Harris

boxing in her second bite of the Commonwealth Games. She was hugely

impressive in her opener. Mandy Bujold, cheap. Buy into this round.

Let's get official introductions. Quarterfinal number three in the

woman's flyweight, 48 kilograms to 51 kilograms competition. It is for

a two-minute rounds of boxing. Boxing out of the red corner,

representing Canada, Mandy Bujold! In the blue corner, representing

Australia, Kristy Harris! So, a final check of the equipment.

Kristy Harris in the blue corner. A handshake with the coaches. The

referee issues the final pre-fight instructions.

So, the opening bell sounds. The flyweight quarterfinal between the

boxer wearing red, Mandy Bujold, 27 years of age. Her opponent, from

Canada, 21-year-olds... Sorry, from Australia, wearing blue, from

Australia, Kristy Harris. Two quality operators.

Just a bit of fencing between the two boxers. As they clash, they are

both touring combinations, quick hands. Mandy Bujold just staying out

of range nicely. Coming back with your own counterattacks. Kristy

Harris, good footwork, keeping out of range. Not a lock to choose

between them. -- a lot. Five successive national titles for

Mandy Bujold. So, Kristy Harris from Australia is

on the front foot. Both boxers are having moments of

success. Not a great deal to choose between them in the first round.

Both boxers are waiting for each other to lead. Both throwing furious

combinations. Mandy Bujold just capturing Kristy Harris there on the

inside. Both of them fighting for the centre of the ring. Neither one

of them was dominant. Let's see what the judges have to say. All three of

them have favoured Mandy Bujold. So, the opening round gone in unanimous

fashion to this boxer from Canada. It was keenly contested, make no

mistake. So, Kristy Harris, maybe a slight tactical adjustment.

Kristy Harris, occupying the centre of the ring, trying to get Mandy

Bujold to the ropes. Good angles thereby the experienced Canadian.

Both boxers very capable. Mandy Bujold just going to allow harass to

come in so she can capture on the counter. -- catch her.

looking to catch Kirsty Harris on the counter and move away into this

base. Beautiful combination there. -- into the space. Three-time

participant in the World Championships is Mandy Bujold.

Beautiful left hand on that occasion from Mandy Bujold.

Harris, to be fair, not respecting the experience, she is giving it a

good going, attempting to push Mandy Bujold back onto the ropes and

attempt her own combinations. Harris is committed, continues to give it a

go. For my money it is Mandy Bujold that took that around. -- round.

Lovely left hook, then just skips off to the left out of range,

conscious not to be kept on the ropes. All three judges once again

favouring the Canadian. They will be happy in that corner. Opening bout

of the tournament for Mandy Bujold and she has found her rhythm

instantly. We move into the second half of this 51 kilograms flyweight

quarterfinal. The boxer in red, Mandy Bujold of Canada, has taken

the opening two rounds in unanimous fashion. Just going to the left,

always staying out of punching range. Kirsty Harris struggling to

get any clean, successful fence attacks.

Stopped in her tracks and through a good right hand to the solar plexus.

-- thrown. Mandy Bujold continuing to box

really effectively on the defensive. Given she has taken the opening two

rounds there is no need to change our tactics. She's having a fair

amount of success as she engages Mandy Bujold in success, but overall

the quality is coming from the boxer on the back foot. Good tactics from

the Canadian, not allowing Kirsty Harris to set her feet. Another good

round by Mandy Bujold. Three rounds down, Kirsty Harris the talented

21-year-old really up against it. Some exchanges there, Kirsty Harris

getting through with her own shots, slightly more shots in that round,

but once again all three judges favouring Mandy Bujold. One win away

from the place on the medal rostrum.

Moving into the final round, the boxer in blue is Kirsty Harris of

Australia, she has conceded all three rounds so far in unanimous

fashion to the boxer in red, Mandy Bujold of Canada. Very skilful

boxer, Kirsty Harris, but she is meeting at hugely skilled and

experienced and accomplished at the Surrey. -- opponent. Kirsty Harris

has had her moments of success but they have been overshadowed by a

greater volume of cleaner shots from the boxer in red. Kirsty

as she comes off she comes off with combinations, but -- Mandy Bujold.

Right hand to the body followed by a right hand to the head from Mandy

Bujold. Kirsty Harris remaining in hot pursuit. Two shots to the body

and then a left hook to the head, Harris having moments of her own

success but generally Mandy Bujold having the first and final word in

any exchange. Harris is giving it everything she has got to try and

close down the elusive Canadian. She just needs to continue pushing Mandy

Bujold back to the ropes, try to cut her off, when she gets the

opportunity to land the combinations. Our furious exchange

to conclude the contest. One suspects she has secured her passage

through to the semifinal stage at the expense of Kirsty Harris of

Australia. Fully committed performance however. Demonstrated

the skill that she has, but not enough to overcome that possessed by

the Canadian. That was a good bout to watch, good technique by both

boxers. Nice defences, nice combinations. But Mandy Bujold used

her experience to fill effect and I think secures the victory. The

judges scorecards, the winner by unanimous decision and now through

to the semifinal, in the red corner, from Canada, Mandy Bujold. The

Canadian through to the semifinal with an impressive performance over

the talented 21-year-old from Australia, Kirsty Harris.

Acknowledges the crowd and leaves the boxing ring ahead of the

semifinal. Congratulations to Mandy Bujold, now we have three of the

semifinalists, who will be the fourth? Nicola Adams is coming to

the ring pretty soon, John Enderby Dell -- John Inverdale is there, I

imagine the roof will come off when Nicola Adams comes into the ring?

Absolutely correct, it is strange, in the same way that Paralympic

events were introduced into the regular programme here, it seems so

normal, why was it not always like that, it is strange, within a few

days of having the women's boxing events Inc operated into the men's

programme it is a case of why was it such a big deal in the first place?

One of the things which has allowed that to happen so quickly is Nicola

Adams. It has gone very quiet. They are building the tension because she

not quite single-handedly but she has been, there is a real tease on

the tannoy here who is keeping the tension going but this is the

build-up to Nicola Adams coming in. Nicola Adams has become such a big

draw, she is the single biggest draw in the women's competition, you can

see a standing ovation from a lot of people in this auditorium. We had a

half empty auditorium for her first round, but today it is packed. There

is a real anticipation of seeing the Olympic champion, she has only lost

one fight in the two years. You would expect her to win this fairly

emphatically. Everyone is looking for a tremendous exhibition.

The familiar figure of Nicola Adams I know it in the cloud --

acknowledging the crowd. Her opponent from Sri Lanka.

Ladies and gentlemen, time to meet the boxers. In the red corner,

representing England's, Nicola Adams.

And I crossed the boxing ring in the blue corner, representing Sri Lanka

Erandi De Silva R. The referee is from Denmark. Four

two minute rounds. Nicola Adams now switches on to the business of this

51 kilograms flyweight quarterfinal. This is the first of a scheduled

four two minute rounds. Three-time runner-up at the National

Championships, Erandi De Silva. She is certainly giving it a go, she is

taking it to Adams, but at the moment Adam is that little bit

sharper. Not allowing Erandi De Silva to settle. Perpetual motion

again. The right hand from Erandi De Silva. Scoring with snaking straight

shots. Good left hand to the body before falling into a clinch.

strong piston-like shots. That jab is so long and snaking, it is so

deceptively long. You think she is out of range and she catches you

with that jab every time. The left hook got through from Da Silva.

They're being instructed to break. What a left hand from Nicola Adams!

Da Silva sent to the canvas, courtesy of a gunshot of a left hook

from Nicola Adams just before the bell. There are those piston shots

there. She can punch, this girl, my goodness, she is so strong. Da Silva

has found herself a lit p trip to the -- little trip to the canvas. It

was the left hand, the final shot of a three-punch combination. The final

left hand right on the button. She took a count for her troubles just

as the bell sounded to conclude round one. Well two judges scoring

it 10-8 in favour of Adams and third scoring it 10-9. But a very decisive

opening round by the young lady from England.

We move into the second round. Terrific atmosphere here at the

SECC. Nicola Adams took the opening round in decisive fashion. Ending it

by dropping de Silva from Sri Lanka. Such Rithen by Nicola Adams and

still by one of her first coaches, whose main focus is footwork and she

has benefitted from that throughout her career. She allows de Silva to

miss and then hits her with the counter shot.

Again good use of the feet. De Silva did have her moments of success in

the previous exchange. We are approaching the final 30 seconds.

Such strong shots. The left jab is a really jolting weapon

The screw shot snapping the head back of de Silva. Excellent

combinations. That is why she is an Olympic champion. All the judges

going for Nicola Adams. No trip to the canvas by de Silva during that

second round. We move into the second half of this

fly weight quarter-final. A place and a medal podium is the place that

awaits the victor and Adams is in control. She floored de Silva in the

first round. She is now turning southpaw. So capable, Nicola Adams,

she can box just as easily ot southpaw or orthodox stance. She

uses it to great effect and confuses her opponent. Now she tastes blood

and shes going to keep her there on the ropes. De Silva keen to initiate

a clinch. Because that shot sent her staggering back. She wants some

respite from the precise punching from Nicola Adams. De Silva is still

throwing back. She is still attempting to throw the shots to

Nicola. Nicola Adams, not sure what that Sri Lankan corner can say to

turn the tie. She has found her rift m in this bout. Expect de Silva to

come out charging hard in the fourth and final round. She has conceded

each of the opening three rounts. The punching power can be a great

deterrent. Nicola Adams with accurate precise punching. De Silva

on to the back foot after that initial foreray. She was shooting

from the belt line on that occasion. Again hot shot success from the left

hand of Nicola Adams. Now she has switched back to orthodox. Adams

upping the tempo as she pushes her opponent back. De Silva hanging on.

Nicola finishing the combination and giving her plenty of space back sboo

the centre of the ring. -- into the centre of the ring. Adams got

through a with a corking right hand and the head of de Silva went side

ways. She is now covering up. She has been put under increased and

sustained pressure from Adams. She now switches back to the orthodox

stance. She could have kept the pressure on. But she knows she has

done enough. Wow! Another incredible jab. Heading the head of de Silva

back. The shuffle from Adams. She gets on her bike and concludes the

contest out of punching range of de Silva and Nicola Adams just drinking

up the applause and encouragement from the crowd. Congratulations from

the Sri Lanka can's corner. Nicola Adams has surely just secured her

place in the medal stage of the Commonwealth Games. That was a off

with display. De Silva continued to compete until the final bell. But

the variety from Adams, shots from every angle, both body and head.

Look at that for a snaking cork screw left and then two punches

followed it from the left and right. Nothing short of a boxing lesson

there from Nicola Adams. Incredible punches and resourcefulness she

showed. Incredible footwork. Another excellent performance from Nicola

Adams. Please show your appreciation for both boxers in the rick -- ring.

The win bier a unanimous decision and through the semi final - in the

red corner from England... The golden girl, Nicola Adams, MBE!

Nicola Adams receives a standing ovation from the crowd at the SECC.

She has guaranteed herself a Commonwealth Games medal. What

colour will it be? Will it be the English national anthem playing on

medal day? She has already booked a place in the final four. There will

be a medal of some description. But the boxer from Leeds will be aiming

for nothing less than gold in the fly weight decision. That is the

moment it was confirmed and a bow to all sides of the arena. And now the

familiar celebration, acknowledging that she is through to the medal

stages of Commonwealth Games with a punch-perfect display against Errani

de Silva from Sri Lanka. Vail the best people in all sports make it

look easy. You make boxing look so easy. It is because I love the

sport. I have a passion for it and I love every -- everything about it. I

have the skill and speed. It is beautiful. I felt I was watching

Bolt, when he is on the track, it is not just about running, it is about

entertain, how important is that to you? Yes, I love to entertain the

crowd. And you have the medal. Yes and creating history all the time.

It almost feels, we keep saying it is the first time women have been in

the Commonwealth Games boxing, but it feels like that is almost history

already, that you're established. Is that how you feel after two fights?

Yes I feel women's boxing has moved on since 2012 and this is just the

beginning. Well done. See you in a couple of days. Thank you. Who would

bet against Nicola Adams taking another medal. Boxing continues on

the red button. But here we have still got live hockey and wrestling

and table tennis before 7 o'clock. But before that, let's take an

update of the news. And it's about time

that I did something about that. Back to Glasgow after an update.

This man was shot by police in 2005, today a former officer is to be

charged with his murder. One of the word's deadliest virus is a danger

to the UK. A disgraceful act - that is what the UN called the shelling

of a school in Gaza. Israel denies targeting schools. Usain Bolt has

rubbished a story that he has Royal he rubbished the Commonwealth Games.

And now back to Dougy in Glasgow. Yeah, I am looking for

a Prince Charming. I don't think I'm ugly, but I don't

think I'm, like, really pretty. I say, "You've got something

on your bum." "Really?" And I say, And welcome back to our coverage of

Glasgow 2014. The boxing continues on the website. Now on BBC Three, it

is crunch time in the women's hockey. One team still to go

through. Either South Africa or India. One will go through, one will

go home. This kicked off 15 minutes ago. Let's join the commentary live

from the National hockey Centre at Glasgow Rob Green to see how this

pans out. COMMENTATOR: It came off the stick

of the Indian defender. It cost them. Putting it quickly into the

circle. On the sideline. Keep going. She doesn't understand. It is close

enough, I guess. Cox off-loads to blanch. It is breaking down, the

tackling of India is very good. The skill level is so high. South Africa

are trying to get their free running going but India are very good at

breaking down the first phase of play. A dream card. -- Rob

Russell finds Damon. And they clash. Just a clash. Damon just getting

flawed. -- floored Full. That is a lovely ball. If you can

deliver a bouncing ball into the circle, it is really difficult for

the defenders. Bright from the baseline. Waiting for South Africa.

It is deep and it is bright and she scores. Perfect execution from South

Africa. A beautiful little move. Completely exposes the Indian

defence. The goalkeeper comes quite higher. It leaves a big hole at the

back. An easy goal. That is where South Africa exploited New Zealand

although New Zealand took that match 2-1. Bright again at the exposed

post. 1-0 South Africa, 15 minutes gone in the first half. What will be

the reply? It was an expensive green card. When India had ten men, they

shipped a goal. Evans. The shot into the circle is now exited. Six Indian

players surrounding the lone ball-carrier. Straight through, one

hand. Here please. In line with where it hit your foot. Into free

territory. Good option out of defence. India are backpedalling. A

really good option, putting the ball into the space on the underside of

the circle. This is the end result. Pressure back on India after getting

that goal. Cox, the captain. Now Bright. Russell inside. A chance.

Speculating. The goalkeeper comes off her line three steps and saves.

A bit of skill, getting that shot away quickly. Bright into the

circle. Another shot at goal and a great save. The ball firmly blunted

out. A terrible area of the park. Just trying to draw a foul. Cleverly

done. Not the prettiest bit of hockey you are ever going to see but

effective. I think the difference is the experience of these teams. South

Africa is hugely experienced. Average age 25. Against a team whose

average age is 21 and haven't played too much together. Shot at goal.

Russell, it was. It is a bit like the Pan-American games. Although

they have got all of the skills, at the moment, South Africa's physical

presence in their face is causing them all sorts of trouble. He looks

pretty calm. A wonderful lead for his side. The thing about India is

that they can turn the screw just like that. They have players that

can unlock the defence just like that. A little movement up the right

flank. Towards the circle now. A free hit. Bright is social. -- so

strong. Bright picks up the rebound. From deep defence, India cleverly

through the midfield. A lunge tackle from Cox. And again. Misdirected.

Gets the foot. The skipper off-loads. Looking for a foot,

maybe. Penalty corner. What a lovely bit of skill, that was. Rumpole does

a little move forward. Just jumped too late.

South Africa ready to face what India will put in here. Irani the

captain ready to inject now. Number 23 does the job for South Africa

covering the shot. Gets the free hit. They want it inside because you

cannot direct its rate into the circle. It has to be on the spot.

Outside the 25, you can do what you'll credit. That is why they were

so keen. This is a card. Stopping forward momentum. Two minutes. That

is the second green card for India. Here is another one. That is going

to be serious. It is fair enough. They have been warned. India are now

playing with nine players. They surge through. Can they take

advantage of an India side with just nine players on the pitch? You are

not going to do it like that by trying to juggle through what is

left of the India team. It is a question of drawing them into one

area and then a quick transfer to get in the space behind. Look at

that. Great eye. And the expert cross. She is having a fine game but

put it onto the stick side of the Indian defender. Look at the five

South African players around the ball-carrier. Even though India have

nine men, they have pushed four of them up the pitch. Looking for

something. They don't want to get too stretched. Otherwise, it will

allow South Africa on the counterattack.

too stretched. Otherwise, it will allow South Africa on the South

Africa really need this out quickly. They do not want to delay. Just a

miscommunication. Steelen by No 3 Evans. And a chance to mount an

attack from here for India. There is little bits of skill they couldn't

make the most of. The Indians are so close around their feet. Those close

skills around the D. The best way to play India is to run them around and

pull them out of position and go into the other spaces. Mayne doesn't

make any progress. The whistle goes. She is a tough mayer, who plays at

my club in Canterbury last season, or did for a while. She is a real

scrapper. India working in pairs down the right flank. They have not

been allowed to enter that South African circle yet.

They have been in that circle, that one personality corner of course.

And personalest penalty corner. They want a referral, South Africa, do

they? I can refer it if you want. But you need to tell me quickly. I

don't think they will. It is interesting that India managed to

force that. They have one player down. They had two players down and

they were still attacking with nine players. It shows the skill and

confidence they have in their game and I think they have only got one

game really. So India, well, this is it. That tackle there on to the

foot. Rani there. It takes the runner! And it is another corner.

They know they have got to get down. Minz is down. They're running down

the line. I think that hit her just above the shin pad on the knee. I

think it was knee. Here - so I would say that might probably get

overturned. Above the knee is deemed as dangerous. She got close. Below

the knee will be another corner. REFEREE: We are saying it is too

high? That is fair enough. It is who can get out there fast enough to

make it dangerous. But at what price. Indeed. It is brave running

out. Brave running out. If that hit her on the knee bone, it is just

below the knee cap on that area that we know hurt like... And gives you a

dead leg for a while. If it puts fluid into the knee, the knee

becomes unstable and it is difficult to run on. She is a speed merchant,

Minz and she is really quick over two metres. It is not good to see

the pain on her face. Nine minutes left in the half. A A crucial match

in pool A. Again they surge forward. Mayne the opportunist.

Mayne is scrapping for every bit of possession. Look at this - waiting

for the whistle. A dangerous game. Always play until the whistle blows.

That is what we were fought and everybody would know the first time

you relax, you get done. This time it is Bright who intercepts in the

middle of the pitch. I think the options were closed down

then. She had two forwards waiting. They have got their full compliment

back. It used to be the magic sponge and now it is the magic bag of ice.

back. It used to be the magic sponge Chamberlain is a goal scorer for

Australia. keeps the ball in play and catches a

South African stick. Well a South African and an Indian stick and a

penalty. Russell is always in the danger area and gets herself a

penalty corner. A bit of a soft one from India. Just holding the stick

out. Because it was slanted towards, like an LBZ style, it just caught

the top edge. Bright to inject from the base. Will they use the same

option that they have already scored from? Yes they will. Terblanche

coming in and it didn't catch anything and goes over the back

line. Bright wasn't expecting that. But a different move, a low shot in

and look at that cross. Bright Wurz standing up there. If she has been

-- was standing up there, if she had been done. She is a very tall

athlete, Bright, it says she is five foot eight, but I think she is much

taufler than that. Those are the balls you have to

watch. India trying to conjure up something special. They're moving

that ball around, India. And they certainly commit players to attack.

Seven of that you are out field players are in and around that D.

Rani has the ball for India. Into the circle and a big clunk - double

stick. Took the quick free hit and the South African defence hadn't

retreated five yards. That is why the penalty conner was awarded. You

have got to retreat and if you're within five metres, you can't play

it until you're within five metres. So good pressure there by India.

Thokchom to inject from the baseline for India.

Excellent work at the back from Marais and South Africa are on

attack already. Touch as go as that was hitting head height. Three and a

half minutes left in the A slide in there and a free hit to

the defence. India are so good at those little one/twos around

defenders. It is something they practice a lot. They love running

with the ball together. Terblanche is so strong down that right side.

Knows her position inside out. Now Davids had the right idea, but

could not be dragged in by Taylor. Sometimes with the Indian defence,

they get out of position. Especially when they throw so many bodies

forward. South Africa managed to find a great ball into midfield and

then into the corner. Intercepted by Cox and just a bit

too much on it. They have an opportunity have India.

Look at the deft stick work and a stroke. What will South Africa's

reply? They're walking away. REFEREE: You have got 20 seconds do

you want to refer. Are you happy to refer. What a great piece of skill

to get up to that position. REFEREE: Can you hear me? Yes. South Africa

are saying she missed the ball before the stick tackle. I'm saying

the stick tackle caused her to miss the ball. Can you have a look. A

lovely bit of skill here. Well, that is an interesting one. Because I

think the South African stick, the corner was for taking the stick

here, just going over the ball and taking the stick. Was Cox's stick in

front of the ball when the Indian player tried to take it snt in which

case that is a penalty corner or a stroke at least. I have a decision

there is no clear reason to change your decision. Stick with the

penalty stroke. So Katariya has created a bit of magic for India and

a stroke has been awarded. Jaspreet Kaur faces the keeper. : And in it

goes - easy as. 1-1. Game on! Superbly executed. They're happy

with that. Jaspreet Kaur. A lovely penalty stroke. You wouldn't want

for much more than that. Great positioning. In the roof of the net.

Not even in the back. Fantastic confidence from the 18-year-old

penalty corner striker. Getting her sixth goal of the tournament. So

efficient. And seems to signal we're back in the game.

Africa? Just as India put the equaliser in, Chamberlain pops

another one in and the South African coach smiles once more. Great work

from Cox initially. Puts the ball in that danger area and well worked.

Chamberlain, well, she gets number seven for her at this tournament.

Well just about right on the hooter. That second South African goal. And

as promised right at the beginning, it was always going to be a

as promised right at the beginning, affair. Contrasting styles between

these two pool A-Teams. And Davids has done a power of work and South

Africa go to the break, they're 2-1 ahead of India. We will be back for

live coverage of that match. Don't go anywhere. We are here at the

quay. People are having ice cream and Coffey but we are going to

change direction and turn our attention to wrestling. This is a

guide to everything grappling. Wrestling was one of just four

sports contested at the first Commonwealth Games. It is a classic

contest between two athletes seeking dominance between grapples and

pools, pins and throws. Men and in all weight categories in freestyle

events. Wrestlers are allowed to use their legs for gripping and they can

hold all parts of the body. A marked circle in the middle of the mat

measures nine metres in diameter and is split into three zones. The

yellow wrestling area and the red passivity ring. A point is awarded

if you force your opponents beyond the red zone and for executing holds

and blocks. Everything you need to know about wrestling. At the start

of the games Scotland's target was 35 medals. They already have 38. Now

they are going for another. Shannon Hawke is going for another one. Over

to your commentators. COMMENTATOR: Shannon Hawke, 19 years old. She is

up against a Madi of South Africa. It will be uninteresting clash. Madi

is a very experienced competitor. The Australian Olympian will oversee

the bout as referee. Hawke was beaten earlier in the tournament by

the beaten finalist from India. Unfortunately, the rumour is going

around that Hawke has an injury. She lost her last bout quite easily. She

has had both shoulder blades put to the ground in 31 seconds of the

first period. She was meant to be carrying an injury. She did her very

best there but an experienced South African has bowled her over and

pinned her in the first period. Madi has gone one better than last time.

A bronze for the South African. A very good performance by the South

African. It will be good experience for Hawke. She is only 19. She will

learn from the experience and hopefully the injury is not too bad.

She managed to twist out of the first throw for the two points but

her opponent getting her to the ground. Then she gets turned onto

her back. Both shoulder blades on the ground for the pin. You can see

where the injury was to her shoulder. She has been heavily

taped. She was pinned very quickly in her second contest. You can

imagine all the pressure going through those shoulders. In a lot of

pain. She really had no choice. We have moved over to the face painting

area. I asked the lady if she could make me look 15 years younger, the

lady said she was not a magician. You look lovely, though.

Disappointment for Shannon. But could the Scottish competitor fare

any better in the 61 kilograms medal match? COMMENTATOR: Etko makes his

way into the arena for Scotland. It is good to see the Scottish

competitor in blue. Vella will be pleased to be in the red as well.

Trying to follow on from what his good friend and team-mate did

yesterday. Carlos Jiminez is overseeing it as the referee, from

Malta. Etko had already retired and was assistant coach to Scotland. He

took the wrestling boots off the wall and lace them up one last time.

I'm sure he is glad that he did. He only finished fifth in the

Commonwealth Games in Delhi but now he stands a very good chance of a

bronze. The Maltese athlete is sent to dry his hands completely. They

cannot be slippy with sweat. It is deemed an unfair advantage. We are

about to get underway in the 61 kilograms class. Malta historically

one of the big nations in wrestling. Straightaway he takes him to the

ground, gets behind him looking for the two and the legless. Etko is on

fire as he tries to go for a spin to turn the Maltese onto his back.

Another two points. Taking your man to the ground gives you two points,

getting him on his back gets you another two. If you pin his shoulder

blades back also means the end of the bout. If you get to ten points

it is also the end of the bout. He has had a futile fight today. Good

sportsmanship from the Maltese allowing him to do up his boot. He

is not afraid to come forward but that is the danger if he keeps

shooting for the leg. Two points for Etko. He is lifting the leg, going

for the leg lace again. Past 90 degrees. That is another two points.

Yes, he is up to eight. He did spin him twice. He only needs another two

points for the outright victory. Two points for the technical

superiority. Can he turn him one more time? Yes, he can. It is 10-0

and that should be it. Technical superiority. Etko, at 36, the former

coach, laced up the boots one time and has brought delight to the

crowd. A bronze medal for Scotland. He came through a very tough draw to

get to this bronze medal fight. Look at him. He is delighted. Raised the

roof of the wrestling Hall. Brilliant work from the former coach

who came out of retirement for these games. The men's 61 kilo class. Etko

is the bronze medallist. The former Scottish coach. Back to being a

wrestler. I am that he is glad he made that decision. Fifth in Delhi.

Third here in what is almost his home city. Glasgow. The bronze

medal. I like the way he shakes the hand of every referee. They are all

gentlemen. And this is how he did it. He was incomplete control. This

was him getting the shoulders 90 degrees. Around he goes for the

final two points. There it is. Over he goes. Technical superiority. He

wins the bronze for Scotland. He flipped the Maltese head over heels.

And look at this. That is not easy on a soft wrestling mat. And at 36

years old. Etko is bronze medallist in the 61 kilograms class freestyle

wrestling. The first medal in the wrestling Hall for the Scots.

STUDIO: Fair to say, he was very happy with his bronze medal. Back to

the hockey. It is 2-1. Enjoy this. With your commentators. COMMENTATOR:

South Africa have a chance if they can get the ball through. India are

searching for the equaliser. Jaspreet. Intercepted the big angled

drive through the midfield. Russell loves to run with the ball. We have

not seen much of her gibbering because they have used a different

style in this match against India. Terreblanche off-loads.

Chamberlain. The goal-scorer. It doesn't touch her leg. Play on.

India had the ball on the end of the stick. A perfect example of the

subtle 3-D skills of India. Kept in. Dipika Pallikal. Back to Jaspreet.

This time it is South Africa trying to get a bit of possession. Back on

the stick. Through bright, South Africa have the ball. A chance at

goal. Speculation. Look at that. Grace coming through for India. We

had everything then. A chip through. A speculator at goal. South

Africa go right down the other end needing to mop up. Enter to end

stuff. Hardly time to draw breath. The guys are getting through an

awful lot of work. Back where we started at the beginning of the

second half. India on the attack. They are quite good at locking the

ball in the corner. They get all their players around the ball. A

speculation ball like that in the air and it still does not get the

ball away. Through the middle of the pitch rather than out on the flank.

Can they make some room for themselves? South Africa just

crowding out the area. Entry into the circle. A little half term. --

half turn. Again, except for the Indian goalkeeper they are over

halfway. Pushed high. Again, you have to say that South Africa are

doing well to lock it into the edges of the field. India just keep bodies

around the ball. Clever work. This time it is the skills of South

Africa. Taylor. Bright. A strong drive down the field. Terreblanche.
