Four Irish Fighters Box for European Youth Medals on Wednesday

Ireland will look to increase their European Youth medal tally to six in Croatia today.

No fewer than four Irish boxers will box for precious hardware on Day 7 of the star-making tournament.

24 hours after Ava Henry and Kyla Doyle won bronze at the very least Tiffany Spencer, Grace Conway, Nicole Kinsella and Adam Olaniyan will compete for a place on the podium.

Minimumweight Spencer takes on England’s Ruby White in a mouthwatering Ireland versus England quarter-final, it’s Polish opposition for Conway as she takes on Martyna Koczkodaj for bronze in the flyweight division.

Kinsella is up against Maloe Teresi of France in the bronze medal bout, while Co Captian Olaniyan is in against Turkey’s Baran Celik as he looks to bank a second European medal.

The first session gloves off at 1pm with Spencer contesting Bout 3 and Conway competing in Bout 8 in Ring A.

Kinsella is Bout 8 of Ring B in the same Afternoon session.

The evening session begins at 4:30pm Irish time and super heavyweight Olaniyan is last in, in Ring B.
