EIGHTEEN male and female bouts were completed on Day 1 of the penultimate weekend of the National U/22 Championships and Irish U/18 Open Competition at Dublin’s National Stadium tonight.
Belfast light fly Caitlin Fryers, the 2017 AIBA World Youth bronze medallist, set up an all Antrim U/18 clash with Shannon McKenna after earning a unanimous decision over Megan Coleman in the 48kg class.
World and European medallist Gabriel Dossan beat five-time European medallist John Joyce in a cracking middleweight decider.
The Irish Athletic Boxing Association are using both tournaments as part of their selection process for March’s European U/22 Men’s Championships in Romania and April’s European Men’s and Women’s Youth Championships in Italy.
The U/18 and U/22 finals will be decided next Friday and Saturday evening at the National Stadium.
