Hudson Smith goes again, he tries to find something extra, can he hold

:00:45.:00:52.

on, Brown is still there, Hudson Smith might just make it and he

:00:53.:00:54.

takes the gold medal! Jo Pavey is still hanging on, 40

:00:55.:01:09.

years of age and here she comes. The Kenyans -- the Kenyan will win, but

:01:10.:01:15.

a bronze medal for Jo Pavey. Brilliant performance. It is good,

:01:16.:01:26.

Sally Peake absolutely superb! Here comes Usain Bolt, he has the baton

:01:27.:01:30.

in his hands, streaking away, Thomson chasing, but Usain Bolt

:01:31.:01:37.

takes the title. He came, he conquered. Welcome back, we have 30

:01:38.:01:47.

minutes on the final Saturday of the Commonwealth Games. It has been a

:01:48.:01:52.

fabulous day with Usain Bolt lighting up Hampden Park. I am

:01:53.:01:57.

delighted to welcome Amir Khan. If you were on BBC1, you will know I

:01:58.:02:03.

was talking to Tom Daley and I am going to resume that talk now.

:02:04.:02:10.

It was a brilliant performance this evening and I know you have changed

:02:11.:02:18.

your coaching regime and you are now training at the London Olympic

:02:19.:02:23.

swimming pool. I moved to London in January and started with a new

:02:24.:02:28.

coach. We have been working hard, changing techniques, working hard. I

:02:29.:02:34.

have changed lots of things and a fresh start and the new things we

:02:35.:02:38.

have been trying are starting to pay off back row. Things have not been

:02:39.:02:44.

that easy after the Olympics. Any athlete will tell you, after the

:02:45.:02:49.

Olympic Games, that first year is the most difficult year, getting

:02:50.:02:53.

back into training and for me in was riddled with injury and frustration.

:02:54.:02:59.

It was difficult. Getting back into the swing of things has been good. I

:03:00.:03:03.

have been successful at the World Series, a personal best, a couple of

:03:04.:03:10.

medals and now, to top it off with Commonwealth gold, I am happy. The

:03:11.:03:14.

Commonwealth Games has been good to you. Yes, my second Commonwealth

:03:15.:03:23.

Games title. Do you feel distance from the Commonwealth Games being in

:03:24.:03:27.

Edinburgh and Glasgow? The atmosphere here is pretty

:03:28.:03:33.

impressive, because they have their Fringe Festival. It is nice to be

:03:34.:03:43.

here. You would think we were in Glasgow. That is clever. It is

:03:44.:03:54.

written everywhere. Brilliant diving games for England. Ten medals

:03:55.:03:58.

altogether, for gold belt will -- four gold medals. British diving is

:03:59.:04:03.

in a strong place. We have topped the medals table, the most medals we

:04:04.:04:08.

have won at the Commonwealth Games, it shows the legacy of London 2012

:04:09.:04:12.

and hopefully the legacy from this Games, people are starting to shine

:04:13.:04:17.

and I think in ten years time, we could be the most dominant country

:04:18.:04:22.

at the Commonwealth Games and even in the Olympics. Speaking about

:04:23.:04:25.

youngsters, Matthew Dixon was impressive. Yes, he is amazing. He

:04:26.:04:32.

works really hard, his diving is great and he is one to look out for.

:04:33.:04:41.

We seem to have lost him. That is a shame. Let us turn to boxing, we

:04:42.:04:50.

have got Amir Khan waiting. We start with England's Olympic gold

:04:51.:04:53.

medallist, Nicola Adams who was fighting for the first ever

:04:54.:04:58.

Commonwealth women's title against Michaela Walsh. It was tight as we

:04:59.:05:01.

join the fourth and final round. Here we go and what a reception both

:05:02.:05:22.

boxers are receiving. Nicola Adams in blue, on her toes. On the back

:05:23.:05:27.

foot. Walsh hammering away with shots to the body. The fighters were

:05:28.:05:33.

at close quarters. 30 seconds gone in this opening round and Walsh is

:05:34.:05:39.

on the front foot. Adams is confident in the knowledge that she

:05:40.:05:44.

is ahead. Happy to keep it beyond range. Away from the aggressive

:05:45.:05:55.

intent of Michaela Walsh. Walsh, commanding centre ring. Adams

:05:56.:06:04.

operating out of the orthodox stance and that jab was effective. It is a

:06:05.:06:12.

furious exchange at close quarters, Adams ties up her opponent. Back

:06:13.:06:18.

into the red corner, gives her a couple of left hands. The referee

:06:19.:06:23.

speaks to Adams. She has to up the tempo if she is to make any

:06:24.:06:27.

impression on the judges. She has to make it clear on this round. She

:06:28.:06:33.

needs to work inside here. Adams making it difficult for Walsh.

:06:34.:06:40.

Inside the final 30 seconds, Walsh back onto the front foot, Adams

:06:41.:06:45.

content to keep it at range. It is at close quarters. They are trading

:06:46.:06:53.

blows. Walsh is patient. I suspect she will need one shot to bring

:06:54.:06:59.

about a finish. Not a berry common occurrence in women's Olympic style

:07:00.:07:10.

boxing. -- berry common. -- very. Both boxers raise their arms.

:07:11.:07:15.

Wonderful outcome judgement for Michaela Walsh but I suspect it is

:07:16.:07:20.

Nicola Adams, despite the warm embrace that Michaela Walsh is

:07:21.:07:24.

receiving, I suspect that is for a job well done in making the final.

:07:25.:07:29.

It is Nicola Adams who has secured the Commonwealth gold medal. Rather

:07:30.:07:36.

untidy fourth and final round. Walsh was patient. That was the pick of

:07:37.:07:42.

her punches. Landed flush on Adams. Michaela Walsh said it would be a

:07:43.:07:47.

dream come true to meet Nicola Adams in the ring today. She was not

:07:48.:07:52.

starstruck. She started confidently and I think she gave Nicola Adams a

:07:53.:07:56.

run for her money. I think it will be close. Nicola Adams is the world

:07:57.:08:04.

number one. Michaela Walsh awaiting the official announcement. We go

:08:05.:08:13.

into the rain with our judges' scorecards, a split decision --

:08:14.:08:21.

ring. She is now gold medallist and Commonwealth women's flyweight

:08:22.:08:24.

champion, in the blue corner, representing England, Nicola Adams.

:08:25.:08:36.

Can find joy expressed by Nicola Adams, the boxer from Leeds has

:08:37.:08:42.

completed an historic double. The Olympic champion from London 2012

:08:43.:08:49.

has just become the Commonwealth Games champion here at the first

:08:50.:08:52.

ever Commonwealth Games boxing Championship in Glasgow.

:08:53.:08:58.

You have done it again, another gold medal. Thank you. It has been an

:08:59.:09:05.

exciting journey. I would like to say thank you to all the supporters

:09:06.:09:09.

and everyone who has been to the arena and watching at home. They

:09:10.:09:13.

have made it a big and exciting experience. A cracking atmosphere.

:09:14.:09:19.

Yes, it was, everyone cheering, chanting for Yorkshire... Michaela

:09:20.:09:25.

Walsh thought she had won it. I thought that was a close

:09:26.:09:29.

competition. She is a great talent and she will do some good things in

:09:30.:09:35.

the future. I thought that I had the more eye-catching shots. Would you

:09:36.:09:41.

agree with that, Amir Khan? Yes, she was the cleaner fighter. She made

:09:42.:09:45.

good moves and created good openings. She was a lot more

:09:46.:09:52.

powerful. Did you find this hard to win than two years ago in the

:09:53.:10:01.

Olympics? To be honest, every fight is a tough battle, but I think now I

:10:02.:10:05.

have got a bigger target on my back, I am ranked number one in the

:10:06.:10:10.

world, everyone wants a piece of Nicola Adams. It will always be

:10:11.:10:17.

tough, every person I fight, I have to have my top game. They will

:10:18.:10:25.

perform 100%, 110%. You find MacCaig -- you found Michaela Walsh awkward

:10:26.:10:30.

to fight? We knew it would be close, we knew she was up for the

:10:31.:10:33.

competition. Once you're in the finals, you know they want to win

:10:34.:10:38.

the gold medal. It is a question of who wanted more. Great for women's

:10:39.:10:44.

boxing. Yes, definitely. I'm sure the gems will be full of girls

:10:45.:10:50.

wanting to be boxers and follow in Nicola's footsteps. She is doing a

:10:51.:10:55.

great job. Looking ahead to real, is that the target? Yes, that is the

:10:56.:11:10.

target for me -- Rio. We wish you well. Later in the afternoon,

:11:11.:11:14.

Charlie Flynn took on Joe Fitzpatrick in the lightweight

:11:15.:11:18.

division and what a day he had. The Scottish lightweight upset the Welsh

:11:19.:11:24.

man in the semi-finals in a split decision and he was in similar form

:11:25.:11:31.

against Fitzpatrick from Northern Ireland despite sustaining a cut

:11:32.:11:35.

over his eyes. Flynn was good value from his victory. There he goes to

:11:36.:11:41.

in his celebration. The Scottish crowd were on their feet.

:11:42.:11:47.

Afterwards, he spoke to our reporter. Amir Khan was there as

:11:48.:11:54.

well. Well done. That was fantastic. Thank you. It was awkward.

:11:55.:11:58.

well. Well done. That was fantastic. you need to be awkward. I was

:11:59.:12:05.

jumping in with shots, but I tried to work the Barbie --

:12:06.:12:06.

jumping in with shots, but I tried to work the Barbie work the body. It

:12:07.:12:12.

was hard. I am winded -- to work the body. I have been training for the

:12:13.:12:24.

past four years every morning. My mum did all my washing, fed me, I

:12:25.:12:28.

would not be here without my parents. The work that goes on in

:12:29.:12:36.

the background, no one will understand it. You might want to

:12:37.:12:44.

thank the Royal Mail! Yes! Once again, all the guys there. All the

:12:45.:12:53.

managers and all the crew. All the boys in there. You're the

:12:54.:13:00.

Commonwealth gold medallist, what is next? I do not know. I am not used

:13:01.:13:15.

to hearing that. Great stuff. Charlie is here. Here is Michael

:13:16.:13:21.

Conlan as well, he also won a gold medal. Charlie, had you calmed

:13:22.:13:30.

down. -- have you. I will be on a high for a week. Described to me

:13:31.:13:35.

what it is like to win? You hear the roar, you feel it in your chest, you

:13:36.:13:40.

hear everyone screaming, it makes you feel at home, you cannot let

:13:41.:13:45.

these people down. It is unbelievable. You know everyone is

:13:46.:13:50.

watching it. Everyone knows you. It is unbelievable. Did you surprise

:13:51.:13:57.

yourself? You go away and with the aim to win, but you do not think

:13:58.:14:02.

about it, you take baby steps, but at the back of your mind, you are

:14:03.:14:07.

going for the gold medal, but you want to be surprised. Were you

:14:08.:14:16.

surprised at the interview? It was insane! Who knows? I am quite scared

:14:17.:14:23.

to look at it. Some of the stuff I was coming out with, you know what I

:14:24.:14:29.

mean? You thank your mother for doing your washing! It is 20 -- you

:14:30.:14:34.

are 20, it is about time you started doing it yourself! Yes.

:14:35.:14:49.

Michael, as well, you won your gold medal today, one of two gold medals

:14:50.:14:55.

for Northern Ireland, Paddy Barnes won the other. And we have got some

:14:56.:15:00.

pictures of you. Tell us about your performance, you must be delighted?

:15:01.:15:03.

I was over the moon with my performance. I only came into the

:15:04.:15:08.

training camp two weeks before this, I was injured. It was really a big

:15:09.:15:12.

doubt whether I would be able to compete. In the end, I got two cuts

:15:13.:15:17.

during the competition as well. We can see that. You did give him some

:15:18.:15:23.

stick, though, didn't you? I just tried to keep the pressure on. I

:15:24.:15:41.

know I have the heart and determination to push anybody right

:15:42.:15:43.

to the last bell. Amir Khan, how impressed were you with these young

:15:44.:15:47.

men? I was very impressed. You but the Englishman, here's a good friend

:15:48.:15:51.

of mine, I had my money on him, but you did everything right. Your

:15:52.:15:55.

movement was good, your footwork was amazing. That in the common nations

:15:56.:16:01.

in as well. You look like a seasoned professional. The same with

:16:02.:16:11.

yourself. You looked like a seasoned professional in there. The pressure,

:16:12.:16:14.

the combinations, and how you defend as well. For both of you, your

:16:15.:16:17.

defence was amazing. And yourself, Nicola. Apart from the head-butt,

:16:18.:16:24.

which happens a lot. Over all, it was great performances from all

:16:25.:16:31.

three of you. Amir Khan, you are right at the top, so what advice

:16:32.:16:34.

would you give to them, stay amateur for a while? Yes, I think they

:16:35.:16:39.

should stay amateur for a little longer. It is much experience as you

:16:40.:16:44.

can. In two years' time, you have got the Olympic Games coming up, so

:16:45.:16:48.

it would be nice for you to get more experience and mature a little bit

:16:49.:16:54.

more. And then, maybe one day, you could turn professional. I am not

:16:55.:17:01.

sure about the women. I think it is more in America. Would you ever

:17:02.:17:07.

consider going over there? Yes, who knows? Make some big noise! And you

:17:08.:17:13.

guys, is that your ambition, to become professional boxers? It has

:17:14.:17:20.

always been a drive of mine. I was going to do it after my bronze in

:17:21.:17:24.

London, but I held off, and I was aiming for Rio. I am undecided after

:17:25.:17:30.

this. I will take a month off and looked at my options. And you,

:17:31.:17:35.

Charlie? I do not really know, I am just waiting to see what happens. I

:17:36.:17:43.

it is tempting, to go pro, but you get the medal, and you get the

:17:44.:17:48.

support. That is always going to be there. There will be promoters

:17:49.:17:52.

calling you up and stuff, but it is all about thinking about your

:17:53.:17:56.

future. And I think it is best to get as much experience in the

:17:57.:18:00.

amateur game. It is quite similar, you do not wear the head guards any

:18:01.:18:04.

more. I think it is best if you stay amateur for another couple of years.

:18:05.:18:09.

The Olympics are coming up. If you can go to the Olympics, and maybe

:18:10.:18:13.

win the gold, that makes you a superstar. What do you think about

:18:14.:18:18.

the fact that they do not wear headgear? Well, I think... With

:18:19.:18:26.

amateur boxing, the heads are always going to be clashing. Even as

:18:27.:18:32.

professionals, in training, you are always clashing heads. But we have

:18:33.:18:38.

fights every three or four months. You guys were fighting every other

:18:39.:18:42.

day. So if you got a cut on the first day, then you had to fight on

:18:43.:18:46.

the next day, and hope that the cuts did not open up again. I really

:18:47.:18:50.

think the head guards should come back. Barry McGuigan was completely

:18:51.:18:56.

the opposite, he thought they could see better. You're right, but look

:18:57.:19:05.

at the damage. Imagine if that happened in your first fight. I was

:19:06.:19:10.

cut in my first fight, yes, on the top of my head. You could have been

:19:11.:19:16.

knocked out of the tournament. That would have been unfair. One quick

:19:17.:19:21.

question - do any of you know anything about hockey? No. We will

:19:22.:19:30.

move on, then! It was the final of the women's tournament tonight, it

:19:31.:19:34.

was between Australia and England, and your commentators are Lesley

:19:35.:19:36.

Murdoch and Mel Clewlow. LESLEY MURDOCH: England rushing on

:19:37.:19:51.

to attack. It is in! It is 1-0 to England! And the Countess of Wessex

:19:52.:20:03.

is on her feet! What a finish by the 19-year-old. Who says that forwards

:20:04.:20:10.

cannot tackle?! That was just calmness and composure personified

:20:11.:20:32.

there by Owsley. And Australia have drawn level! It looks like we are

:20:33.:20:43.

going for a shoot out. Oh, and it just runs over the baseline. For the

:20:44.:20:58.

gold medal. Slips it in! Oh, my goodness me, Australia have pinched

:20:59.:21:03.

the gold medal! So much kudos to England. The game has been taken

:21:04.:21:04.

from under their noses. Australia, the Germany of hockey.

:21:05.:21:14.

Now, we have got some more boxing, and this is the men's

:21:15.:21:19.

superheavyweight. For England, Joe Joyce. For Australia, Joe Goodall.

:21:20.:21:27.

Joe Joyce is a fine arts graduate. Not surprisingly, he does not like

:21:28.:21:34.

to end up on this article canvas. Richie Woodhall and Ronnie

:21:35.:21:38.

Mackintosh am a painting the pictures with words...

:21:39.:21:47.

RONALD MCINTOSH: Reigning European Championship bronze medallist,

:21:48.:21:51.

demonstrating here that he has too much fitness, too much ring craft,

:21:52.:21:57.

too much punch, accuracy and power for Joe Goodall at this point.

:21:58.:22:01.

22-year-old is competing gamely, but he is being outboxed in just about

:22:02.:22:07.

every conceivable department. Not quitting, though. Trying to employee

:22:08.:22:13.

elusiveness in the no, corner, but look how he is being physically

:22:14.:22:18.

handled by Joe Joyce. His energy levels have been sapped either left

:22:19.:22:27.

jab, in particular, follow-up by big shots from the right. Joyce, back

:22:28.:22:33.

onto the front foot, stalking his man. Working once again with the

:22:34.:22:40.

left jab. Joe Goodall, continuing to move side to side, but there is

:22:41.:22:43.

precious little aggressive intent coming from the Australian. Not

:22:44.:22:48.

quite survival mode, but he is throwing very few punches.

:22:49.:22:54.

RICHIE WOODHALL: He switches to southpaw there, but he just cannot

:22:55.:22:57.

keep his man away from him. There is southpaw there, but he just cannot

:22:58.:23:03.

the odd desperate shot which we spoke about, from Joe Goodall. But

:23:04.:23:17.

this is super heavyweight boxing, and you never know what can happen.

:23:18.:23:21.

That is why you must concentrate right to the very end. Joe Joyce

:23:22.:23:26.

looks to be home and clear, but one punch in this division can change

:23:27.:23:29.

it, and it has happened so many times before. There it is, look. You

:23:30.:23:33.

never know, with superheavyweight boxing. He must concentrate. Do not

:23:34.:23:41.

get complacent, Joe Joyce. Inside the final minute, Joyce remains on

:23:42.:23:46.

the front foot, clothing away with hooks and uppercuts at mid-range.

:23:47.:23:51.

Goodall, you have to give him credit, because he is continuing to

:23:52.:23:58.

compete. That right hand was white on the button. He took so many clean

:23:59.:24:06.

punches in the first couple of rounds that he appears to have very

:24:07.:24:10.

little left, but he is digging deep, is the Australian. To refix

:24:11.:24:17.

all-round athlete, Joe Joyce, from south-west London. From the club

:24:18.:24:26.

where frank Bruno learned his trade. And Joyce ending this contest on the

:24:27.:24:30.

front foot. Goodall briefly thinking about fighting fire with fire, but

:24:31.:24:36.

paying a heavy price, and getting tanked with clean punches, as the

:24:37.:24:43.

contest ends. Joe Goodall deserves immense credit for lasting the three

:24:44.:24:48.

rounds and competing as keenly as he did, but there can be little doubt

:24:49.:24:52.

about the man who is about to be crowned the new champion, Joe Joyce.

:24:53.:24:58.

ANNOUNCER: In the red corner, representing England, Joe Joyce!

:24:59.:25:07.

Joe Joyce takes a bow to the Glasgow crowd. And there it is!

:25:08.:25:15.

Demonstrating that horrific athleticism possessed by this big

:25:16.:25:17.

6ft 6 ins superheavyweight. And there is the medal table in the

:25:18.:25:35.

boxing, pretty impressive for the Home Nations. And three of those we

:25:36.:25:40.

have got with us this evening, which is fantastic. Amir, it is a really

:25:41.:25:47.

impressive performance from British boxers? It is amazing. If you look

:25:48.:25:53.

back at when I was in the Olympics, in 2004, there was only one person

:25:54.:25:58.

who qualified, which was myself. Now, we have got all of these young

:25:59.:26:02.

fighters. They have been doing so well, winning medals in the World

:26:03.:26:07.

Championships, the Commonwealths, England finishing up on top of the

:26:08.:26:15.

table. And the others behind them. It just shows that boxing is a very

:26:16.:26:19.

popular sport in Great Britain, and it is getting better and better. And

:26:20.:26:24.

it has been great for Scotland, the host nation? Yes, boxing in Scotland

:26:25.:26:30.

is quite small, but these Games have been a catalyst, and there has been

:26:31.:26:34.

a big boom, there have been a lot more boxers coming into the clubs

:26:35.:26:38.

since it got announced, more or less. The closer it got, the clubs

:26:39.:26:43.

were booming with all the young children coming in, everybody

:26:44.:26:49.

wanting to learn boxing. There is a lot to do with diet and nutrition as

well. It is great for the children to get out into the clubs and learn

:26:56.:27:00.

about diet and nutrition and boxing. It is good for discipline, and it

:27:01.:27:08.

keeps them off the streets. Michael as well, back in Northern Ireland,

:27:09.:27:11.

it must be going down really well, because they have waited an awful

:27:12.:27:16.

long time for gold medals at these Games? It was the same at the last

:27:17.:27:25.

Games as well. It is a fantastic achievement for us. My father was

:27:26.:27:29.

the team coach, so it was even better for me and my family. You are

:27:30.:27:36.

used to all of this now, Nicola. Yes, I am not doing too bad,

:27:37.:27:40.

actually. How have you enjoyed the Commonwealth Games? It has been

:27:41.:27:44.

absolutely fantastic. The organisation of everything has been

:27:45.:27:47.

really good, really well-run, put together. The support has been

:27:48.:27:52.

fantastic. The crowds, the turnout, everybody watching at home. It has

:27:53.:27:56.

been a great Games for all of the athletes. And someone else who has

:27:57.:28:02.

been enjoying it, one Usain Bolt. We have got some pictures of him

:28:03.:28:05.

celebrating his gold medal this evening, heart of that four-man

:28:06.:28:09.

team, of course. What about those, Charlie?! He is quite a character,

:28:10.:28:20.

Amir, isn't he wanted yes, and he can fast! I have never seen him

:28:21.:28:25.

live. I did not have the time to make it. A great athlete. It is

:28:26.:28:32.

great the way he is with the youngsters. Really inspiring for the

:28:33.:28:38.

youngsters to be able to interact with him. That is a proper selfie,

:28:39.:28:47.

that is. We can have a look at the overall medal table now. It is

:28:48.:28:55.

England's best ever Games by some considerable distance. Australia,

:28:56.:29:02.

who have topped the leaderboard in the past four Games, our next.

:29:03.:29:12.

Scotland, comfortable in their best ever. Well, that is it. The curtain

:29:13.:29:18.

comes down with tomorrow's closing ceremony. It has been rate to have

:29:19.:29:24.

your company, all of you. Thank you so much. From all of us, a very good

:29:25.:29:27.

night.
