50kg Daina Moorehouse put in a superb performance in her opening Paris 2024 bout, at last 16. She contested against French boxer, Wassila Lkhadiri. Daina won the first round, 3-2, and was dominant throughout the second and third, rocking Lkhadiri in the 3rd. The boxers were level on four Judges’ scorecards in to the last round, and the 4-1 decision went to home boxer, Wassila Lkhadiri. Judges from Kazakhstan, Indonesia, Azerbajzan, Paris Boxing Unit and Canada, scored the bout 29:28, 28:29, 30:27, 29:28; 29:28

“When you’re getting beaten you feel you’re getting beaten, but I didn’t feel like I was losing,” Moorehouse said after losing to the woman who also beat her narrowly in the European Games last year. “It was 3:2 when I met her last year and I think I won two of the three rounds. It would have been nice to finally beat her but maybe next time,” she said.

“I definitely thought I was landing the harder shots and was the busier boxer. I don’t think I could have done anything more. I pushed on in the third round thinking surely I have this. I just went for it.

“It is hard to take but I’m just so proud for even being here. I’m 22 years of age and I’m at the Olympics. It would have been a bonus to get a win and fight for a medal but I am happy to be here.”

Jack Marley’s dream of bringing home a medal from his first Olympic games ended with a 4:1 defeat by Tajikistan’s Davlat  Botaev in the 92kg quarter-finals. Despite his youth – the 21-year-old from Monkstown BC was the youngest in his entire heavyweight division in Paris – he gave everything he had against an Asian Games gold medallist who proved just too elusive.

The Sallynoggin man lost the first round 4-1 and the second round was stopped temporarily to check a cut above his eye which appeared to come from a clash of heads but despite losing the second round 4:1, he never quit, unleashing some great left hooks and combinations as he chased to the end, winning the third round 3:2. Judges from Korea, Hungary, Philippines, Netherlands and Morocco scored the bout 28:29; 28:29; 29:28; 27:30: 28:29

“He was elusive, I thought I outpunched him but it is what it is and I’m really grateful for all the support I had out there,” Marley said. “I thought I gave it socks and I always do that. I gave it a real rattle, that’s the least you do in this sport. We’ll just have to re-group and go again. It’s a hard one to swallow but I’ve an amazing group around me. After this I can take in the full Olympics experience and I’ll be up those stands now shouting on Michaela (Walsh) and Kellie (Harrington), just as much as I’d like to be cheered on.”

Day Seven – August 2nd

Featherweight Michaela Walsh becomes a double Olympian today, as soon as she steps in to the field of play in her last 16 contest against Bulgaria’s Svetlana Kamenova Staneva

These two haven’t met before – and that appears to be because Svetlana spent a portion of her career contesting at light. She’s previously boxed Katie Taylor and Finland’s Mira Potkonen. All of her keynote achievements are at feather: World bronze, European Games silver, European Union gold and 2 European Championships silver.

Michaela’s in the ring at 2.46pm, Irish time.

Ireland, with a 29 strong team, has departed today for the 2024 European Championships, taking place in Banja Luka, Bosnia & Herzegovina from August 1st to 10th.

The upcoming championships will be the 21st iteration of this tournament. The first Europeans, for male boxers 13 and 14 years old, was held in Rome, Italy in 2003. The most successful team was Turkey, who went home with six gold medals. Second place went to Russia, with three champions, while Ireland, Italy, Azerbaijan and England had one gold medal each.

The first EUBC Schoolgirls European Boxing Championships was held in Albena, Bulgaria in 2018. Fifteen years after the inaugural Schoolboys Championships, 12 girls were crowned European Champions. They fought in weight categories between 36 and 70 kilograms. The best girls’ team was Russia, with six gold medals, Ireland won three gold medals, while Bulgaria, Italy and England had one champion each.

Ireland came home from the 2023 European School Championships in Slovenia with 3 gold, 1 silver and 7 bronze medal – along with the 3rd place finish in the medals table. 32 federations competed in the tournament. In all, 380 boxers contested the tournament. Ukraine topped the medals table with 20, followed by England, with 12. Team Ireland had the largest women’s team, of 12 boxers, and the joint second-largest men’s team, of 14 boxers.

The Team Co-Captains for these championships were named this week as 51kg Ella Archbold of Ballybrack BC and 57kg Michal Mullaney of Claremorris Boxing Club.

75kg Aoife O’Rourke became a double Olympian this evening, and suffered a shock defeat in her last 16 opener against Poland’s Elzbieta Wojick, a fighter the Connacht woman had previously beaten four times.

Ireland’s four time continental champion won the first round 3:2 when the Pole got an official warning and a point deduction for holding, yet O’Rourke lost the second round 3-2 and everything was left riding on the third.

With her opponent repeatedly spoiling and crowding her, O’Rourke still got off some big shots and good combinations to the body in the third. But the judges gave it 4:1 to her opponent and Ireland’s two-time Olympian lost on a split 3:2 decision. The final scores: 29:27; 26:30; 27: 29; 28:28; 29: 27.

“I’m very disappointed. She set the pace and intensity from the start and it was a battle the whole way through,” O’Rourke said. “I was expecting that. She only had one or two options. She was either going to come at me like the bull, or she was going to stand her ground in the middle of the ring, and she came out right from the get-go.

“I honestly think I gave it my best. There was a lot of holding but that’s part of it. Maybe I should have been quicker in getting out and what not, but it is what it is and I wish her the best of luck now.”

“We’ve met on numerous occasions and it’s always been a battle. I definitely didn’t underestimate her. She stepped it up again tonight and it came down to the wire.

Kellie Harrington wrote her name in the annals of Irish sport, again today – by securing a second Olympic medal in successive games in her Quarter Final victory over Angie Paola Valdes Pana of Colombia. She’s one of only four people to do so. The others are boxing’s Paddy Barnes, two-time hammer champion Dr Pat O’Callaghan, and rower Paul O’Donovan.

Kellie had to wait until this evening to find out who she faces in the semi final – and its a re-run of the Tokyo Olympic Games final. Kellie, and Brazil’s Beatriz Ferreira will do it again on Saturday at 10.08pm.

Day Six: August 1st

Two Team Ireland boxers are in action on Day 6 of the tournament, opening and closing the evening session.

50kg Daina Moorehouse becomes an Olympian, and opens her Paris campaign against home boxer, Wassila Lkhadiri. They’ve met once before, at the Quarter Finals o the European Games, and Wassila got the decision. She also has two pro-wins under her belt. That’s a Last 16 contest – Daina is expected in the ring at 7pm.

Heavyweight, Jack Marley, contests is quarter final and boxes for a medal, following his opening win over Poland’s Mateusz Bereznicki. He contests against Tajikistan’s Davlat Boltaev, and will step between the ropes at 9.08pm, in the last bout of the day.

Kellie Harrington has become the first woman, and the third Team Ireland member in a century, to win Olympic medals at successive games.

Only three other Irish athletes – two-time hammer champion Dr Pat O’Callaghan, boxer Paddy Barnes and rower Paul O’Donovan – have ever won medals at two separate Olympic Games, so the 34-year-old Dubliner has already joined a very exclusive club.

She is the first Irish woman to do it, and will now attempt to make the metal even more precious, when she returns to the ring for her semi-final on Saturday evening (August 3rd) against the winner of tonight’s bout between Beatriz Ferreira (who Harrington beat in the Tokyo Olympic final), and Chelsey Heijnen of Netherlands.

Kellie, the defending Tokyo lightweight champion, contested for a a podium place against 24 year old Colombian, Angie Paola Valdes Pana – she’s a 2023 World and Panamerican silver medalist, and won through to the quarter finals by virtue of a 3-2 split win over Kosovo’s Donjeta Sadiku. Kellie put on another masterclass of control, ringcraft, conditioning and technical skill – winning by UD, on a scoreline of 30:27; 29:28; 30:27; 29:28; 30:27.

“You don’t have time to think about what you’ve just done. You just think about what’s next. I’m very happy with my performances, I’m very proud of myself, I’m just glad to be here and doing what I love/hate to do, hate-to-love, love-to-hate.

“I’ve just been in my bubble. I know Mona and Daniel medalled but I’ve literally been in my bubble for the last five-six weeks. I’m just doing what I do. I’m just taking each day as it comes. I’m just enjoying it. This Olympics is about me enjoying it. About me doing it for me and me being happy again. I’m happy in what I’m doing and I’ve said it from day one; whatever happens happens. I came out here on the 29th and stepped into the ring and stepped back out of the ring and became a double Olympian. That is history and I’m very, very proud of myself.

“Today I became a double Olympic medallist and that’s more history. I just know I have people up above looking down on me and they’re with me every step of the way. I won’t look back at the fight, I don’t need to. I trust my own coaches. We just try and stick to a plan. We give it what we have and if it works it works and if it doesn’t.

“It is just sport. This does not define me as a person. It’s fantastic, I’ve made history but I’m Kellie Harrington, I’m Kellie Harrington who’s a good person and that’s what I’m going to be known as.”

Earlier, Jude Gallagher fulfilled a dream sparked when he was just 8 years old – that of becoming an Olympian. Jude had a bye, and met Tokyo flyweight silver medalist, Carlo Paalam, of the Philippines.  He’s contested at flyweight, bantamweight and now feather. Palaam has an Asian Games bronze medal at fly, and and Asian Championship gold at bantam. Jude held his opponent to two 3-2 rounds, and, despite a stormer of a 3rd round, the 5-0 decision when to Paalam, on a scoreline of: 29:28; 30:27; 29:28; 29:28; 29:28

“It’s an uphill battle when you don’t get the first round but you just have to stay composed and stick to the game plan and I did that,” Gallagher said. “I couldn’t get too eager or aggressive because he was countering me with that big, overhand right so I had to be cautious going forward. I thought the fight was closer than the scorecard made it out to be but I’ve no complaints.

“It’s a bit disappointing but this is where I want to be, sharing a ring with the best in the world. Carlo was a Tokyo silver medallist and that’s where you want to be, fighting the best of the best on the world’s biggest stage.

“This has been an incredible experience, everything I thought it would be and more. I had a bit of a wait to get involved, I was just itching to get out there and I came today to do my very best and feel I can leave with my head held high.”

Tonight, Four time continental champion 75kg Aoife O’Rourke, is seeded 2nd. She begins her second Olympic campaign at last 16 stage against Poland’s Elisabeta Wojcik – they’ve met four times before, and Aoife has been the victor on all occasions. Aoife boxes in the Evening Session and is expected in the ring at 8.52pm, Irish time.
