Decorated Lauren Crinnion fights for World honours today
Lauren Crinnion will look to add a world medal to her extensive collection today.
The multiple-time Irish champion and European Schools silver medal winner will fight for World Junior Championship bronze in Yerevan.
The decorated Fr Horgan’s starlet takes on India’s Payal Payl in a 48kg quarter final.
Secure victory and she will step back onto the International podium and cement her status as an underage prospect of note.
A win would also see Ireland double their World Junior medal tally as 63Kg Siofra Lawless of Four Kings BC, has at least a bronze medal by virtue of the draw.
Alex Carmody, Christian Doyle and Patrick Kelly secured their quarter final berths yesterday but Cork’s Crinnion is the only Irish fighter in action today.
Crinnion will compete in bout 2 of Ring A’s Afternoon Session you can watch the action HERE.
