    Well done :happy

    In boxing you represent Ireland as a whole not the Republic or Northern.

    No he doesn't. He represents himself from Northern Ireland.

    Re: Next Olympics - He has changed his mind already and now says he doesn't know if he'll represent Ireland or Great Britain

    He said he would be honoured to represent either GB or Ireland.

    He said he has always represented the GUI and sees no reason not to continue doing so

    If golf is in the next olympics and he doesn't make the GB team, he would then make himself available for the Ireland team.
