Day 14 BBC One: 19.00-20.00 Olympics

HAZEL IRVINE: You are watching a jump off for the medals in the

individual show-jumping event here in Rio.

Great Britain's Nick Skelton is one of the six competitors in it. He is

the only one clear soap bar. This is the fourth competitor, Kent

Farrington of the United States -- side bar. Coverage continues on BBC

One, for those of you watching on BBC Two, I would politely ask you to

reach for the remote and join us on the other side for the continuation

of this jump off. Kent Farrington had the first fence

down. He is galloping, really flying, but it is not going to beat

Nick Skelton because he hit the first fence. And we have got a

medal, no doubt we have got a medal. Last fence as well. Finishing on

eight. Well, two to go and as it stands at

the moment, we have definitely got a medal to take home from

show-jumping. Get the champagne on ice. Will it be gold, will it be

silver, will it be bronze? The owners just saying to Nick, you are

going to be back in therefore a medal ceremony.

All In and Fredricson for Sweden. He has been so consistent, that is why

he is late in the draw. Him and Eric LeMay -- Eric Lamaze have won the

right to be there. Nick Skelton was the first to go clear in 42.82.

Fredricson is a very quick rider, forward with, motoring. He is clear.

Little bit quicker, perhaps. It is close, it is very close. This turn

is absolutely crucial. Just the last. The time to beat is 42.82. He

is not going to do it. He is just a little bit slower and Nick is still

in gold medal position. 43.30 five. Nick has got a medal, we have said

that already. He has definitely got a medal at the moment. He is

definitely going to get a silver one. The last one go will decide

whether gold goes. I don't know about your heart, Mike, how much

more of this can we take? Nick was the first to go, he has set the

standard. He will definitely get the silver medal but the last man to go

is one of the quickest in the world and he is a man who has done it all

before. He did it in Hong Kong Beijing with the great Hickstead. He

has had to buy horses to follow the great Hickstead but, my gosh, he has

bought well and this horse sees him in with a real possibility but Nick

has said such a good target. I repeat again, that time 42.82. He

needs to be over the water at about 28.8 to be in touch. Eric Lamaze

going for gold. A little bit wider into the second fence. Very tight

here. Again, just a little bit wider. Taking a bit of a pull into

the double. Still clear. We will look at the time check. I think this

is a bit quicker. He is really covering the ground, galloping

around this corner absolutely flat out. It's gone! Nick has got gold!

What a competition! Four it is, for the record 42.0 nine. It means Nick

Skelton will take the gold for Great Britain. The silver goes Fredricson

with All In and it is for Eric Lamaze and Fine Lady. I did tell you

this morning that was going to happen! We all hoped, we all dream,

we all believed that Big Star and Nick Skelton could do it. He has

nursed this horse, taken so much time and trouble to get fit and

ready to come here and win the gold medal for Britain. What an

extraordinary performance. You can see the embracing going on, just how

popular this is. This man has hardly got a bone in his body, but he put

it on the line, he put Big Star on the line. Their management skills

shown not only in show-jumping but in racing two, the Skeltons have got

that and it has all come down to a fabulous gold medal to end the

equestrian Olympic Games here in Rio de Janeiro. It really is something

that has been a dream and we wonder whether dreams do come true, but

they have today. For Nick Skelton, all his dreams have come true.

Beverley, the owner. Congratulations all round.

Well, I don't know about you at home, but we are fairly drained

here. There is Fredricson, hasn't he done well. He will take a little bit

of pride out of that, because he has always been a great competitor, he

rode in the Barcelona Olympics as an event rider but turned his attention

to show-jumping. He has gone on climbing to what has turned out to

be a silver medal individually. There is Diane Lampard. She has had

her neck on the line as team manager. Disappointment for Britain

in the team but it has all come right thanks to this man's efforts,

Nick Skelton. It is good for show-jumping back in Britain, it is

good for equestrian back in Britain. This man has really shown what

determination and skill can do. Well, the medal ceremony won't be

too far away but still the congratulations come ringing in. And

look at Big Star. That is the champion, really. He knew he should

have won an individual medal in London. He just hoped and hoped he

might get another chance. It has gone so near to not happening but at

the end of the day, all of the hard work, all of the patients has been

rewarded with a gold medal at the Olympics. -- patience.

HAZEL IRVINE: Nick Skelton, no wonder he is signing autographs, he

is the star on Big Star. Big Star is the brightest star out there. Nick

and Big Star the only horse and rider combination to go three rounds

clear today and that was enough to give him a gold medal in his seventh

Games, a record for a great British competitor, and he has been such a

wonderful servant to equestrian sport in Great Britain, it is no

less than he deserves. Gold for Nick Skelton, the first medal in the

individual event for 44 years the Great Britain and it is gold. There

will be a lot of celebrations, it is the 23rd gold for Britain in Rio and

I am sure, Clare Balding, that one in particular will be so valued and

so special to every member of the team.

I can guarantee you this, when Nick Skelton gets to Lee McKenzie, he

will be incredibly emotional. It was back in Athens when he really felt

he should have won the gold medal. Suddenly had a fence down. It was a

weird night when they had the final round, I think the spotlights were

right in the horses' eyes and he felt he should have won a gold

medal. Here he is at 58, his seventh Olympics and he has won gold. Medal

ceremony, the interview and everything to come as we mop up the

show-jumping but here is what we have to come this evening. Very

shortly, we will show you Joe Joyce's semifinal, win that in the

superheavyweight category and he is into the gold medal fight. At the

same time, Lutalo Mohammad will be in the quarterfinal of the

taekwondo, we will catch up with that. I will be speaking to Jade

Jones, who defended her taekwondo title and we will be previewing

tonight's hockey because at nine o'clock on BBC One, we are live at

the gold medal match between Great Britain and the Netherlands. Let's

had over towards the boxing because the first of the semifinals is under

way and it features Tony Yoka of France against Filip Hrgovic of

Croatia. Anthony Joshua is with me and the

semifinals are the worst time to go out of the medals but at least you

get a bronze medal in the boxing event. But no one will be thinking

in these terms. Two big men and two big punches. Yes and as you said, no

one wants to go out now, they have come this far and the mentality is,

I might as well go all the way. I know Tony Yoka from France, I have

sparred with him and he has a phenomenal jab, very quick. Filip

Hrgovic was the last man to be Joe Joyce. It is interesting to see the

level and who Joe could possibly be facing. Two giants, as you can see.

First of all, this is the first semifinal in the superheavyweight

category and Richie Woodhall and Ron mocking Tosh ready to go.

-- Ron Macintosh. RONALD MCINTOSH: This is a match

between number macro boxers who know very -- each other very well. The

man in red, operating on the perimeter of the Ring, Tony Yoka,

the number one ranked boxer in the world, reigning Commonwealth Games

gold-medallist, and his opponent is the reigning European championship

gold-medallist, Filip Hrgovic from Croatia. They know each other very

well, they met at the quarterfinal stage last year, and Tony Yoka

prevailed, and they met way back when they were teenagers in the 2010

youths championship gold medal bout and on that occasion, the man in

blue had his hand raised to take world youth gold. So the rivalry is

tied one-on-one, who will prevail here to go through and contest

Olympic gold? RICHIE WOODHALL: The majority of the

time, both of these boxes have the height to reach over their opponent,

but here, it is even Stephen. Tony Yoka has the slight advantage of

prevailing over his opponents in the tournament but Hrgovic has started

very well, he is more convincing with that jab. He is starting to

settle into a rhythm, the man in blue. Yoka a little bit slow on the

outside, needs a bit more time and space to work. But this is not a bad

start from Hrgovic. Flat-footed and less dynamic around the ring but

Yoka, only 24, as is Hrgovic, has been around the elite end of boxing

for a long time, the yoke on Yoka was that he didn't have the talent

to go with resolve, but you can't say that any more. But you can say

the same about Hrgovic, so who is going to come out on top? The

flat-footed boxer in blue is throwing the greater volume of

punches. Not only that, he is throwing better punches going

forward, so he is actually looking more impressive on that front foot.

It is difficult to give anything for Yoka. He has had a little bit of

success occasionally but on that back foot, he's boxing very

negatively than me. And Hrgovic is beating him to the punches, getting

there with his right hand. This is not a bad round for the man in blue.

Very good start, commanding the centre ring. In with a left

uppercut. A flurry from Yoka in response. A lot of French fans in

attendance, cheering everything he is doing but is he doing enough to

overcome the almost incessant jab being poked out by Hrgovic. That was

a good hand by Yoka. BELL. A very good round of boxing.

The man in the centre of the picture ahead of boxing. Yoka is one half of

France's golden couple. The woman he is planning to marry is contesting

lightweight gold at the end of this session, but back to this contest.

The man in blue lands with the better shots per me during this

round, more positive on the front foot. It took awhile for Yoka to get

into the round. Let's have a look at the scores. I totally disagree with

that. Hrgovic from the totally won that round. It is amazing that Yoka

has got it on the back foot. -- Hrgovic for me totally won that

round. BELL.

We are into the second round of this 91 kilograms plus superheavyweight

semifinal and the man wearing blue, who boxed in this type of posture

and vein throughout round one conceded the opening round across

the board. He got to him with a good right hand, Hrgovic. Tony Yoka took

the opening round for all three judges, so he is in a good position

coming into the second round. The second semifinal, featuring the

number three and number two seeds, that is next and features Great

Britain's Joe Joyce, so stick around for that one as he tries to book his

place in the gold-medal bout. But Yoka, when he was really out of had

punched, had boxed, at least from our vantage point, the majority of

round one has taken the opening round unanimously -- out rocks. He

is a lucky lad. It took him two minutes of the opening round to get

going. He had a bit of success here and there but for me, the man in

blue is in control. Here now on that front foot again. The judges

obviously like that back foot. That is not too bad. Goodbody shot from

Hrgovic a few moments ago. Part of a two-man Croatian boxing team which

represents progress as he gets through Alberto punches. Parodied by

Yoka but some of them were effective. Cracking right hand down

the pipe by Yoka and Hrgovic counters. The Croatian team

represents progress, they didn't have any representatives in London.

Hrgovic made it through virtue of his ranking in season five and here

he is in the semifinal of the superheavyweight. And he is having

success with that right hand again. Stiff straight punches. Yoka firing

back with shots of his own. Standing his ground. Yoka is keeping his

guard are pretty high but they are getting through, these right hands.

The Croatian is holding his feet, he is a bit slow on his feet, but that

the same time, he has a good laid-back movement, he lays back and

makes his opponent miss. Fairly low guard, inviting a shot from the

Frenchman but at this stage, again, the Croatian is boxing better for

me. Good right hand again from Hrgovic. Yoka breathing through a

slightly open-mouthed as he takes another good right hand and his

attempted counter was rather ponderous. Good right hand from the

man in red. If the name Filip Hrgovic starts familiar per boxing

fans, as he lands another good right hand and Yoka styles to look weary

as it takes more punches between his high held gloves... Good portion of

the round for Hrgovic. The right hand wasn't too far away. Yoka comes

back with an eye-catching jab. And a cracking right hand right on the

bell. If the name Hrgovic sounds familiar in a boxing sense and you

don't follow Olympic style boxing, he is the man who prevented the much

mooted contest between David Hay and Tyson Fury because in David Hay's

last spa, the man in blue cut his I write open to prevent that contest

taking place. Hrgovic does the better work going

forward. Yoka had his moments again. But the aggression should be

favouring Hrgovic. He only gets one score. He's very, very unlucky here,

this man in blue. Again, I'd probably disagreed with nine or ten

contests here. We're on our 262, that's not too bad from that number

of contests. But I don't agree with the scores here. I think the man in

blue should be winning this fight. Into the third and final round we go

then. The man in blue, Filip Hrgovic of Croatia has it all square for

judge B, having taken a share of that round, of the second round. But

he's trailing by 20-18 for judges A and C. Of course, more than any

other weight class, the superheavyweight division, these

bouts can be brought about, the conclusion can be brought about by

one single shot. Concentration is vital for both, but particularly for

Yoka. Because Hrgovic will, no doubt, be aware, his corner may have

been informed that he's trailing in this contest, despite boxing very

well indeed throughout rounds one and two. Good left hand to the body

from Yoka. I'm at a loss what this Croatian can do to improve the

situation for himself. He's boxing well on the front foot. Maybe,

making his opponent miss here and there. He's got fairly slow feet.

But he's doing very well in my opinion. Maybe he's got to keep that

guard up higher for when Yoka does throw the long, straight shots.

Yoka, to his credit, he's blocking a lot of these on the gloves. But the

volume of work is coming from the man in blue. He's really got to go

for it. He probably needs to knock him out now. And down goes Yoka.

He's damaged his ankle. How significant is this going to be? We

haven't seen much evidence during the course of this tournament, he

relies on his legs, as one of his primary assets. Wonderful mover and

he's complaining that he's gone over on his right ankle. Was there a

shot? No, he just shtumbles. So he just adjusted his feet to move out

of the way of a punch and gone over on his ankle. Done that a couple of

times, Ron! It's like red rag to a bull now for Hrgovic. He's really

going for it. That's spurred him on a bit, the man in blue. In the

professional ranks Michael Grant, the towering heavyweight suffered a

similar fate against big time McCline. He damaged knee ligaments

while tripping to the canvas. To impair a boxer in that regard is

going to make this a very difficult 55 seconds to negotiate. Yoka a

fleet footed mover at his best, even though we haven't seen much evidence

of it during Rio 2016. Is he going to be reduced to a stationary target

for a heavy hitter like Filip Hrgovic. I don't think it will be

that much of a problem. He's not been fleet footed in this contest.

Or in the tournament. But it's there if he needs. It It may affect him

now. This is a fairly poor display here. Hrgovic is doing the better

work on the front foot. Still looking to find that knockout punch,

Hrgovic. Yoka giving impressions of being weary, but his boxing stance

remains solid. He feels that he's seen this one out now. Tony Yoka

given the status of the score card coming into the third and final

round, Tony Yoka will be going through to contest the Olympic Gold

Medal bout here. Because Croatia's Filip Hrgovic wasn't able to produce

the 10-8 round he needed to get things back to even Stephens for

judges A and C. It will be Yoka, the tournament's number one seed and

reigning World Championship Gold Medallist who will be going through

to contest the Gold Medal bout here at Rio 2016, but how badly impaired

will he be by going over on that ankle? You've seen the way he tried

to adjust his feet to get out of the way of a punch and he's gone over on

his ankle. This could really affect him in the final. He will have to

have it strapped certainly. It's like a spran. That boot will be

holding it together. I've had the same problem in a couple of

contests. Your boot, when you take it off, that's when the swelling

starts. He will have a few problems there. He's very lucky, in my

opinion. Ladies and gentleman, the winner by split decision... In the

red corner, Tony Yoka. So Tony Yoka the reigning World Championship Gold

Medallist goes through to contest Olympic gold. He's already won

France's first ever medal in this weight division. What colour will it

be now? It's at least silver as he goes through to the final. Filip

Hrgovic, Croatia's first ever medallist in the boxing ring,

terrific performance by him. He comes out with a bronze medal having

been defeated by his familiar rival here. Richie thought that was

surprising, what due make of that? For me, I always say it's best to

knock out your opponents so you don't leave it down to the judges. I

saw phenomenal boxing combination of punches and power from the Croatian.

The Frenchman was trying to counterpunch. For me, the Croatian

was more busy. You'd have given it to him? If I was a judge, I would

have looked at it and given it to the Croatian. It's going to be the

Frenchman who's gone through shot I think, who goes into the final on

Sunday afternoon, the very last contest of the 275 here over the

course of the last fortnight. The key thing is will he have a British

opponent on Sunday afternoon? Four years of hard work have brought Joe

Joyce to this point. And again. Other side. And again.

Touch. And again. Move. Step. Good. And again. Up. And again. A nice

shot of Anthony saying hard luck to the Croatian defeated in the first

semifinal. As Joe comes into the ring, you know his opponent pretty

well. Tell us. The guy he's boxing now, who is his opponent now that

he's boxing? He's fighting the kaz ack that you fought. Oh, Mr Dychko.

Unbelievable jab. Great experience because he was in 2012 as well. Now

in 2016, he's filled out a bit more. He was younger there. It will be

interesting to see the development that the four years of training his

given his opponent. Here he comes all 6'9" of him. Will Joe be excited

by the prospect or nervous? You can't help but be nervous. These

guys have had tough draws from the get go. The Great British team have

been with world champions and British champions. There will be

nerve US. Dychko is a medallist already. Joe's had many rounds with

him. Joe handles me in sparring very well. I've beaten Dychko. I hope

he's got the right mind set because everything below the neck down is

physically capable. As long as his mind is right, it should be a good

night for him. Here we go with the second semifinal of the men's

superheavyweight at the Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro with Richie

and Ron. Plenty of British support in

attendance for Joe Joyce. The boxer in the blue corner, the boxer from

Kazakhstan, Ivan Dychko. Head up, no holding. Joe Joyce is

6'6" but he's looking up at Ivan Dychko, who is 6'9". We're under way

in the 91 kilogram plus superheavyweight semifinal, being

contested between boxers from Great Britain and Kazakhstan. The taller

boxer, the man in blue, upon his toes, operating on the perimeter of

the ring and making a very good start with straight shots is Ivan

Dychko, the reigning Olympic bronze medallist, a former World

Championship Silver Medallist. He won his first in 2013, took that

silver. Then he's also took silver at the back end of last year

incredibly experienced the 26-year-old. His opponent is Joe

Joyce, the reigning Commonwealth Games champion, reigning European

Games champion and comes in as World Championship bronze medallist from

Doha last year. He's got to be sensible pressure from Joe Joyce.

He's got to force the pace here. His opponent, in the last bout, he boxed

similar, light on his feet. But then he slows down and then he tired in

that contest. Important that Joyce sets the pace, tries to cut off the

ring space a little bit better and throw the punches, threes and fours.

Tire this man out. If he tires him out, you will see him hold on the

inside. Joe has got to set the pace and work rate here. That is one of

Joe Joyce's strong suits. He keeps on coming. Can he cut off the ring

against this fleet footed boxer who likes to glide around the perimeter

and work at his own pace poking out that long jab. He's filled out

considerably in the previous four years, when he picked up that

Olympic bronze, losing to Anthony Joshua at the semifinal stage. Joe

Joyce, who can set such a high work rate, but can he pin this man down?

As Richie pointed out, he faded alarmingly in the quarter final

victory over the Commonwealth Games bronze medallist. Joe Joyce

following him around the ring at the moment. Can't cut off the avenues of

escape that Dychko is managing to find. He has to hurt his opponent

down stairs. You have to target the body with a good mover. If Joe Joyce

can get close enough with his straight right, certainly, then the

double jab and the right upper cut down stairs to slow this fellow

down. He will slow down if he's hurt down stairs. That's what Joe Joyce

has got to do. This is predictable, the first round. I thought it would

be like this. It's how fast you can slow this guy down with a heavy,

fast work rate and pace. Joe Joyce managing to get through with a

couple of body shots. Now he's getting closer. He landed the right

jab and followed that with a right cross over the top. Joe Joyce a

clubbing puncher. If he can get into range and target that long range,

look at the manner in which Dychko dropped his right arm. That's a lot

of poundage, testing the strength of the boxing ring there. They fall to

the canvas. Nobody appears to be injured. The contest

resumesment -- resumes. Joe Joyce getting closer, not interested in

the touch of gloves with Ivan Dychko to conclude the first round. Joe

Joyce is here on a mission, and it's to get to the Gold Medal bout. Joe,

good boy. What you've got to do is close the gap and don't give him

room. You need to close, see. Coach Lee pleased in that corner saying

he's beginning to blow. The strategy clear. Dychko sweeps the opening

round across the board. They would have expected him to go down. He's

got to have a better second round and slow the feet down of Dychko.

That will be the plan now. He's going to throw a few more shots, Joe

Joyce, cut the ring space off better but get to his man certainly. This

is the crucial round, round two. We're into the second round of this

superheavyweight semifinal. Tony Yoka the reigning World Championship

Gold Medallist is waiting in the final. He's beaten most of these

men, most recently in the World Championships. Joyce onto the front

foot and closing the gap on his man, as he walks him down. Straight away

Joe Joyce got him with three, four punches down stairs then. He's held

his feet. He will try and grab Dychko. We know what he's about.

He's starting to tire now. Immediately, that's a good right

hand from Dychko as he changes direction. Joyce is beginning to get

closer. Can he begin to make that investment in body shots that will

pay dividends as the contest progresses? It's that right upper

cut, measured with the jab. There it was, right upper cut to the body.

That slows the man down. That's better work, Joe Joyce. Dychko just

moments ago, began breathing through an open mouth, gulping oxygen. Joyce

looking to unload heavy artillery to the long, lean body of the man in

blue. Can he land that punch out. Good right hand over the top, a

grimmace from Dychko. The man in blue is hurt. Dychko fighting back.

Buff I think he's suffering here. This is where he switches the

attack. He's got to switch down stairs with the body shots Joe

Joyce. Better. Good left down stairs. Better work from Joyce.

Clubbing punches, slamming into the rib cage of Dychko. Anthony Joshua

was telling us earlier that when Joyce get you in that position, look

at the manner in which he can turn and sink the hooks just above the

ring belt. Any veteran will tell you that the pain of a body shot is

something that stays with you. It may not put you on the floor but it

will help to rapidly deplete the energy and reduce the movement in

the legs. One minute ago in the second round, Joe Joyce getting.

Dychko flat-footed, struggling to get on his toes. Keep working,

throws those threes and fours downstairs. Got to find the room and

space on the inside. This man is going to hold him, but that is

better. More dominant, Joe Joyce, on the front foot. The movement of Ivan

Dychko visibly slowing with every passing moment. The body shot is

beginning to reap dividends for big Joe Joyce as he goes looking for his

man once again. Dychko, his movement slowing to that of a glacier, as Joe

Joyce continues to move him down and unload point -- punches. He needed a

better round, we said it and he has had it, Joe Joyce, he has slowed his

man down but he has got to punch more on the inside. This Kazakis

getting desperate in the holding. BELL

And Joe Joyce fixes his man with a baleful stare as they make their way

back to the corners. JOHN INVERDALE: Anthony Joshua is

throwing every punch with Joe Joyce in the fight, what you make of the

situation and how will he make the final round? Just how he did in that

round, he is putting pressure on Dychko, giving him no room to throw

the jab. Joe is working him to the body and slowing him down and

causing him all sorts of problems. Dychko is a rangy fighter, give the

range and he will jab your head. When Joe is out of range, he's

throwing the right hand. He is up and should be leading and I want him

to continue the same thing he has done in the second round and he will

slow him right down in the third. Here we go with the moment of truth,

the third and final round. RONALD MCINTOSH: So Joe Joyce has

responded brilliantly to sweep the second round unanimously and now he

comes out like a freight train on a mission, walking down his man and

trying to target both head and body of Ivan Dychko in his pursuit of a

place in the gold-medal bout. Dychko is suffering. It is going to be a

torrid three minutes for Dychko, he is on his feet, he has rallied a

little bit but he keeps walking on two. Here comes Joe Joyce again. He

is wilting down to the canvas, he can barely hold his boxing stance.

He has cut beneath his right eye as problems begin to mount up. Joe

Joyce swinging for the fences with a big overhand right. There is a

saying in GB, "Set about them, Joe." That is what he has got to do, keep

going forward, switching the attack from body to head. He is doing the

right thing but he has to leave no doubt in the judges' mines, he has

to work here. Dychko, the two-time Asian continental champion, looking

to mad rally. He is a proud individual but that left hand to the

body sickening him. The referee intimating it may have been low.

Dychko with a negative response in terms of his body language. Terrific

work to the body again from Joyce. Dychko being given a real working

over as Joyce continues to find a home for his punches. He has

exhausted Dychko. He is trying to get up on his toes but the body

shots are hurting him. Joyce has to keep it going, has to switch the

attack. Body to head and then back downstairs. Ivan Dychko seemingly

running on fumes, fighting on instinct but still standing his

ground and punching out shots that will keep Joe Joyce at bay. Joe

Joyce winding up that right hand before landing it to the body.

Lovely shots again by Joyce. Got to find a bit of relaxation to get the

faster punches home. He is exhausted, is Dychko. But still he

stands. Jolting left hand drive the man backwards from Joyce. Dychko,

ready to fall after being chopped down to the body like a tall tree.

Joyce on the cusp perhaps of stopping his man. Can he produce a

sustained final assault that would take it out of the hands of the

judges? Marching his man backwards with a heavy are sold. Good right

hand to the body. Still Dychko stands. It has been a great last 30

seconds the Joe Joyce but he has to finish the contest strong. He has to

show the judges that he is there at the end punching and looks the one

in control. Dychko trying to fight back but Joe Joyce is unrelenting in

his forward march. Can he find a couple of quality shots?

BELL Terrific performance from Joe Joyce.

He raises his arms immediately and their celebration in the red corner

because Great Britain's Joe Joyce, who conceded the opening round

unanimously, responded brilliantly around number two to take that ran

from all three judges and then sustain his are sold round number

three and now surely, Great Britain's Joe Joyce will go through

to the Olympic gold-medal bout in the competition and look to emulate

the accomplishment of Anthony Joshua and Audley Harrison, who occupied

top spot on the Seve superheavyweight podium. Tremendous

left hook that went in and the body language at the end of the contest,

it was Joyce on the front foot, it was better from him. He has got it

for me, he is going through, got to be. Ladies and gentlemen, the winner

by unanimous decision... In the red corner... Joe Joyce! Great Britain's

Joe Joyce is through to the gold-medal bout in the

superheavyweight division. A terrific come from behind victory on

the scorecards over the reigning two-time world championship

silver-medallist Ivan Dychko. He started slowly, he had trouble with

movement in the opening round but he would not be denied. He continued

his forward march, continued to target the body and he is through to

contest Olympic gold in the superheavyweight division.

A cameo of Caballero from Joe Joyce -- capoeira.

JOHN INVERDALE: Virtual Jewish reception from the crowd for Joe

Joyce's balletic choreography in the ring -- a tumultuous reception. I am

so happy for him, he has come from earls filled, grassroots, got a

tough draw and has guaranteed himself a place in the final, I am

so happy for him -- from Earlsfield. He lost the first round, any seeds

of doubt in your mind? Maybe he is a fighter that gives the warm up, he

is like a steam train and got the engine going and from there on, he

was flying and all he needs to do in the second and third round is do

what he did in the second, keep the pressure on. I could see he was

slowly breaking down Ivan Dychko and that is how he got a decision. You

got involved in that, you were throwing and evading every punch. It

is easy from the outside, I was screaming do this and do that, but

inside, it is a totally different ball game. So all I wanted to do was

send him positive energy. I just wanted him to win, I wanted him to

throw the right, the left, every punch in the book to get a decision

but he made it happen. This is Joe Joyce's moment. Ukip screaming,

"Keep going forward." You can't leave any doubt in the judges' minds

-- Ukip screaming. You can't, you saw Dychko jabbing at the start but

as the rounds went on, he kept going and we will call him Steam Train

Joe. We Will Try And Talk To Him But We Are A Bit Down The Pecking Order.

He Is In The Next-door Pen To Us. It Is So Loud In Here At The Moment. I

Don't Think We Have Actually Got Time To Hear From Him Now But I'm

Sure the interview we record with him, you will see later tonight.

Bolding macro we we will definitely here. His final

will be on Sunday. In the last 40 minutes, a man who broke his neck

and retired from riding and had a hip replacement in 2011 has become

Britain's first ever individual snow jumping champion -- show-jumping.

Nick Skelton is a phenomenon. He has come back from so much, he was

desperate to win an individual medal. He set a time that no one can

be done with the 13-year-old stallion Big Star, he ensured that

at the 23rd time at the Olympics, this was played.

Is CLARE BALDING: a hugely emotional moment and afterwards, he spoke to

Lee McKenzie. The individual goal, this is

something you have worked so hard one dreamt of, how does it feel to

have achieved it? It is unbelievable. I am speechless, for

once. The horse was amazing today. He has been really unlucky the last

few days but I did it the other way around in London, and it didn't pay

off, so probably just as has been done for him today and he really

deserves it. He has been incredible and it has been a hard, hard road,

because he hasn't been sound at and the last competition he won was in

Aachen, the Grand Prix in 2013, so today was a good day to win.

Everybody has worked at getting the horse back on the road and it is

amazing. You almost have parallel lines, you have both had your

injuries. You retired, came back from that neck injury. There must

the dark days when you wondered whether the horse would make it to

another Olympics. -- there must have been. How hard has it been for both

of you? It has been tough, especially the last three years,

really, because I knew if we get it right, he is well capable of doing

it. He's probably one of the best horses... Definitely the best horse

I have ever seen, it is a big statement, but he is an incredible

horse. He knows exactly what is going on, he knows when it is really

important and you can ride him and put pressure on him and he takes it,

you know? He is amazing. You really set the standard today, it was

crucial to get out of the blocks early in the jump off and put the

pressure is on the others? To be honest, I prefer to go first. He is

a fast horse. I went quick enough but I didn't go stupid and the

course worked great for me. The last macro term, he locked up on me --

the last term. But if I had a good flight for that one, it would have

been really tight. It went the right way and it was good. We know you

have no been 27 Olympic Games. Please tell us there is going to be

an eighth Olympic Games! I think so. I think when he retires, I think I

will stop as well. I don't think he will make another one, he will be 17

then and I will be too old. Well, enjoy every minute, thank you so

much. Thank you. CLARE BALDING: when Nick

says too old, he is 58, the oldest winner since Joshua Millner in 1968.

But we could have more first timers as it were at an Olympics tonight

because for the very first time, GREAT BRITAIN's women hockey players

are into the gold medal match, we will be showing it live on BBC One,

uninterrupted and I have three members of the hockey team alongside

me to discuss the chances of the women against the Netherlands

tonight. Dan shingles, Dan Fox and David Ames. Dan, there were various

injuries in the semifinals, have you seen the women and how are they? We

saw them at breakfast and I think they had a team meeting. The mood is

great, they seem to be quite relaxed, couple of injuries but we

have had assurances they have been dealt with and the girls are really

ready to go. The women didn't qualify, didn't get

out of the group stages, then a bronze medal and now this Gold Medal

match. What do you put the rise down to? They have a brilliant team

spirit. We train with them almost every day. It's good to see how

they've developed that spirit as a side. You saw in the semifinal

against New Zealand, they got a few knocks, a few dumps and bruises, but

nothing held them back. They've been brilliant. David, my arm is not that

long - the conditions, that blue pitch is exactly the same as you've

been training on, has that helped? It's been massive. The girls have

used it as much as they could over the last few months and years.

They've done brilliantly. Superb journey for those girls. Hopefully

they can do the business tonight. The heat shouldn't be a factor,

should it, because it's an evening match? No, come 5pm, the sun goes

down and it gets quite cool, perfect conditions for our girls. They play

in conditions which have been 30 degrees plus. Tonight will be no

different in terms of what they played in the semifinals as well.

They'll have no complaints about being quite cool. A few questions

from our viewers. Steve says, "Why is there water on the pitch? It's

water-based AstroTurf. It used to be sand. Now technology moving forward,

it's a water-based pitch. Which makes the game a bit quicker. It's

been shown over the last few weeks how quick the game is. The ball

skids on the surface of the water? Does it stop you getting burnt so

much if you fall? No, you can still get burnt. You see some slide

tackles, some diving deflections, yeah, no, I suppose it's probably

easier than sand based when you were ripped to shreds. We're thankful

that it's water based to keep us a wee bit less burnt. Now back to Dan.

Let me give you this, Rebecca says, shots from outside the D that go

into the net without deflections, why don't they count as goals?

That's quite a good question. A lot of people see the ball fly into the

net from all angles and get excited and nothing comes of it. The ball

has to be touched within the attacking D by one of the attacking

team. That can come from a long ball that's deflected in or come from a

shot, but effectively a goal can't be scored further away that the top

of the D. That's your answer. How big a moment is this for British

hockey? This is probably the biggest moment that we've ever had. The men

won in 1988, Olympic Gold Medal. This is being shown prime time on

BBC, moving the news for it! It's fantastic. We're lucky to be here

and watch it in person. The girls will do everyone proud. They're a

great team with a brilliant tournament, seven winds from seven.

Looking forward to it -- wins. Are you feeling relaxed and confident or

nervous? There will be some nerves. We know the girls really well. We

know how much hard work they've put into it. Being athletes yourselves

you know they're fully prepared. We all have confidence that they've

gone through everything they need to be doing. They'll be ready. We're

raring to support them along. It's going to be a sensational match.

When Britain last won a Gold Medal in hockey it was the men's team back

in 1988, Sean Curly was a star, scoring a hat-trick in the semifinal

that. Was 6am on a Saturday morning against West Germany. This is 9pm on

a Friday evening. It's going to be huge. I'm quite excited as you can

tell! Equally excite issed Anthony Joshua. They caught up with Joe

Joyce after his win. ? Talk us through it. Yeah, he was running for

the first round, keeping me on the end of his jab. Lots of foot work

movement and agility. He couldn't keep up with that for the three

rounds much I started closing him down. Cut the ring off and landed

some shots, especially the second and third round. Started working.

Due know that you were one down at the end of the first round? I

suspected something because of the way Lee was talking to me in the

corner. I thought oh, right, I'd better pick it up and land some

shots and win the bout. Here's an assessment, what did you think?

Unbelievable. Dychko is tall. He wanted to work the jab and keep Joe

at range. Joe warmed up in the first round. It's a mental game as well as

physical. He figured him out. Second round he closed the gap down.

Working him to the body, hurting him. That takes your breath away.

Working him to the body, Dychko starts slowing down. He can't throw

the jab like in the first round. That's when you ask me, what does

Joe need to do to secure the fight, exactly the same as the second

round, close the distance, put more pressure and Dychko will soon fade.

That's what he done. I'm really happy for him, man. You're in the

Olympic final. Yeah. One step closer to the gold. Don't worry about the

gold. Just keep on winning. Yeah, yeah, just keep on winning, keep it

simple. I'm happy for him. I seen Joe from grass-roots, you know, come

up had a tough draw like the rest of the boys and he's here in Rio

handling business. Staying hungry, staying humble. Many

congratulations. See you on Sunday. A gold or silver awaits Joe Joyce on

Sunday. The woman standing alongside me knows what that is like. Jade

Jones last night retained her taekwondo title. This is how she did

it. COMMENTATOR: Defending her Olympic

title Jade Jones of Great Britain. The Spanish fighter.

She takes the head shot and plants another. There is head shot that

puts Gomez back in this one. A picture perfect shot there. Gomez

reeling and rocking. This, a real battle. Time for Gomes to try and do

something. Ten seconds left. Jones takes

another. Gomez on the back foot. Can she do it one more time? The Welsh

wonder strikes gold again, to the delight of the British fans and the

Brazilian crowd. Wonderful performance, absolute perfection.

Jade Jones becomes the two-times Olympic champion.

In London she was the youngest British Olympic champion. She's now

the youngest British athlete ever to defend successfully defend an

Olympic title. Many congratulations. Do you remember much about anything

that happened last night? It's always such a blur. I just remember

I kept thinking, one fight at a time. You know, like seeing my

family, when I walked out and it just gave me such a boost. I was

like, you know, I never want to lose in front of my family. They've

supported me so much. I just want to do it for them. Your grandfather

introduced you to the sport, was he here? Yeah my granddad and my Nana

have drove me all over the country and took me everywhere. I owe so

much to them. You were very aggressive immediately in that Gold

Medal match. You had to be, didn't you? Yeah, with Gomez the Spanish

girl, if I don't pressure her, she'll pressure me. You have to get

on her from the start. I went 6-0 up at the start. In the second round I

took too much pressure and she started come bag being. The coach --

coming back. The coach was like, "You've got one round." I chucked

everything I had and kept on her. The next minute, Olympic champion.

How do you stay calm because you said beforehand how much more

difficult it is being the defending champion. How have you managed your

nerves? I think like try to put things into perspective. I know if

them girls that I'm fighting come to the taekwondo gym where I train, I

know I'd beat them up. It's like, just because I'm in the Olympics,

like, not to panic and you know, big them up. Yeah just imagine myself in

the gym sparring them. I know I'm better than them. I pretend right,

let's go, we're in the gym. It seems to work. You didn't really let

yourself go until you knew you'd won. Then you did. You went for it.

That was my moment. They don't happen often. You've got to enjoy it

when it happens. It's just amazing, yeah. You can't describe the

feeling. Four years of training for that one moment, it's so special. I

was looking down here because I know hundreds of people gathered at the

Mountain Park hotel in Flint to watch you win at 2am. Four years ago

the flint pavilion was renamed in your honour. Yeah, no, my home

support is just amazing. I couldn't ask for better. I was actually on

face time to like the whole pub after the semifinal match, so yeah,

it was amazing to see all the atmosphere there and just, you know,

how much support they have for me, win or lose, I can feel it's not

just if I win, it's if I win or lose. It makes me so much more

confident and hungry to win. And apart from your family, who would

you say has been the biggest influence and support? It has to be

Paul Green, my coach. I don't think people understand how much of an

impact he has. He's literally a psychopath trainer. He trains us all

the time and constantly training me so hard. He literally puts his life

into it. He is a legend. Yeah, I owe it all to him. There could be more

to come from the taekwondo. Because your team-mate and housemate, Bianca

Walkdon fights tomorrow. She has a chance for gold. She has to be on

her game to win. I'm confident she can definitely win. She deserved it

more than anyone. He's had two ACLs. She hasn't stopped. She's kept

pushing. She's my training partner. We're constantly pushing each other

all the time and eating right, sleeping right. We're doing

everything we possibly can to win. She deserve it's more than anyone as

well. I hope that she wins as well. She got injured just before London

and missed out. This is actually her first Olympics. Yeah, it's her first

Olympics. It's amazing to be coming to the Olympics together, with your

friend, who's your training partner as well. What next for you? You're a

double Olympic champion but still so young, presumably there are more

Olympics ahead? Yeah, it's amazing to be double Olympic champion

already and that just makes me more eager, God, I'm 23 and I can still

do more. I think I'm still not the finished product. I can get better.

So yeah, definitely I'm going to try and get to Tokyo and go again.

Famously when your grandfather introduced you to martial arts, it

was because you were a bit a naughty kid. What has it brought you in your

life? Getting into taekwondo it channels your emotions and gets you

going on the right path really. It gives you a goal in life. If you're

a hyperactive kid put your energy into something good. It gives you a

meaning in life and taekwondo, without it, I don't know where I'd

be. You have been sensational. Many congratulations to Jade Jones and

we've got more taekwondo coming up. On BBC Two, when we switch shortly,

we will be showing you Lutalo Muhammad in his quarter final.

Diving is on right now on the red button. That's Tom Daley in the

preliminary round. Boxing, the women's lightweight final. At 9pm,

push back time for Great Britain against the Netherlands in the Gold

Medal match of the women's hockey, the first time the British women

have ever been in the final and it could be a first gold in hockey

since 1988, when Sean Curly and his British side beat West Germany. Lots

more to come from the Olympics. But my thoughts are very much with Nick

Skelton and the whole of his family for his winning the individual Gold

Medal, it will mean more than anything he's achieved in his

career. He gives
