 JUDE GALLAGHER PRESENTED WITH HIS WORLD YOUTH BRONZE TODAY

Tyrone’s Jude Gallagher improved Ireland’s total haul in over 30 years of World Youth boxing to 22 medals at the 2018 AIBA World Men’s and Women’s Championships in Budapest, Hungary.

Gallagher lost out in the last-four of the tournament on Tuesday following a 4-1 split decision reversal to Thailand’s Thitisan, who won gold today.

It has been a remarkable year for Two Castles BC stand out who secured World and European Youth bronze and an Irish title in 2018 despite being two years shy of the maximum age.

“Disappointed not to be competing in the world finals, but still 16. Fighting 17/18 year-olds will definitely stand of me in the future,” he said.

Meantime, the inaugural Men’s World Youths – the 1st World Women’s Youths were held in Turkey in 2011 – was hosted in Japan in 1979.

Eight years later Ireland claimed two medals at Cuba 1987, courtesy of Eamonn Loughran and Denis Galvin.

“Sugar” Ray Moylette won our first gold at this level in 2008 in Mexico and Joe Ward topped the podium in Azerbaijan two years later.

Gallagher’s podium finish is not the first time that an Irish boxer has taken home World Youth silver from Hungary as Colman Barrett won bronze in the heavyweight division in Budapest at the turn of the century.

Hungary 2018 marks the fourth time that Ireland has medalled in the light-fly class with Ryan Burnett, a current World pro champion, Katie Rowland and Caitlin Fryers, who lined out for Ireland in Hungary this month, winning silver and three bronze at the limit.

Meanwhile, a second session of finals will be decided in Budapest tomorrow.

Team Ireland are due to arrive home on Saturday at 4pm via Dublin Airport.

GALLAGHER SETTLES FOR BRONZE AT WORLD YOUTHS

IABA News

 

 

 

Jude Gallagher,pictured, had to settle for bronze at the World Men’s and Women’s Youth Championships in Budapest, Hungary today.

The Irish light-fly was beaten on a 4-1 split decision by Thailand’s Thitisan Panmod after a close semi-final at the Duna Arena.


Gallagher will be taking him bronze from Hungary, Ireland’s 22nd medal at this level since Cuba 1987.

The Tyrone orthodox found the target with enough body shots – and two clean combinations – in the first round to win the frame against his industrious opponent, who received at least four cautions for dropping his head, on the unofficial cards.

The Irish captain began the second with a good right to the head, but Panmod, constantly staying close to deny the young Irishman any leverage, was bearing away on the inside for most of the stanza.

The third and final round was more or less a replica of the second with neither orthodox enjoying any sustained dominance.

Puerto Rico’s Paul Jan Rivero earned a 3-2 split over Kazakhstan’s Makhmud Sabyrkhan in the corresponding semi-final which was refereed by Ireland’s Dermot McDermott.

Today’s defeat brings Ireland’s competitive interest in the tournament to a close. Ireland were using a seven-strong male and female squad in Hungary.

 

Irish head coach Billy McClean and team managers Stephen Connolly and Tara Mari Robins hailed Gallagher’s performance today and the performances of the entire squad at the 81-nation tournament.

“It’s been a wonderful performance by Jude and all seven of our boxers over the past week.The future of Irish boxing is looking very bright!” tweeted the Irish Embassy in Budapest.

Gallagher will be presented with his bronze medal during Thursday’s finals.The Irish squad are scheduled to arrive home at 4pm on Saturday via Dublin Airport.
