Josh Taylor of Scotland lost 13-10 on points to the 2009 world champion. Pretty good result for him.

Joshua was rocked badly today in the third round before being stopped on his feet.

England not doing great compared to the last time, Ireland doing brilliantly.

moylette through to final v stalker
looking forward to seeing how he gets on with stalker as hes probably the best on team gb

 

Who do you think will win this? getting to the final of this two years running for Stalker is a good effort

 

worth noting Moylette got beat in the semis of this years nationals, was lucky to get on the squad to go to Turkey but hes grabbed his chance with both hands

 

id say stalker will edge it in a close fight
moylette is world youth champ from 08 so he has pedigree himself and a lovely left hook

 

selby through to final

 

I reckon Stalker will probably just take it, but I'd love to see moylette win it...

 

fred evans through to final.good fight -he boxed really well.
