Lol Katie was british in the daily telegraph today

[Dice75]

How many clear now?

edit.....

All finished now, 22 make the final round.

6 clear

4 on 1 fault

9 on 4 faults

3 on 5 faults.

Clear the 2nd round for a medal surely?

I'm assuming they change the course around for the 2nd round.

Should be interesting

[cooker3]

This I shall not be missing. I also don't have to endure Jimmy McGee either. Win win.

Ya, make it tougher I believe

Fights on that.

[eamonhonda]

too much traffic perhaps

[Emmet]

This girl's doing very well against her.

[A_CitizenErased]

This girl's doing very well against her.

For a 19 year old up against Taylor and that Irish crowd she is doing exceptional.

[Emmet]

Still can't get my head around the point scoring. We seem to be getting points for punches that don't score for any other country!

(Conlon was the same)

[Bubbleking]

more shapes than a bucket of lego - still getting battered

[eamonhonda]

SHIP

[Teddie]

More boxing and less dancing and she would have had a better chance. Did think the scoring was a big harsh against her though.

[Emmet]

classy enough performance. Felt she battered the British girl far more though. Just fought a tactical match winner this time.

[eagle eye]

Katie is so far ahead of the opposition. She is fcukin' awesome.

[eamonhonda]

Thought jimmy was gonna give us a bar of fields of athenry there

[A_CitizenErased]

Just fucking unbelievable

[eagle eye]

Jimmy Magee gave three and a half rounds for commentary for the boxing fan and then half a round for the regular viewer there. I'd love to hear those who say he is senile or a terrible commentator critique his commentary there.

He is senile and a terrible commentator and that was another example of brutal commentary

[ghostface]

What was the TJK bird up to with the dancing and airplane arms?? Cheeky bitch

[Teddie]

Wp BBC.

Not much doubt about that decision either. Ireland's Nicola Taylor is into the final of the women's lightweight category, with a 17-9 win. I think the crowd might have enjoyed that... she will now fight for gold against Adriana Araujo of Brazil or Russia's Sofya Ochigava.

You clearly haven't an iota what you are talking about or else its a poor attempt to troll.

Either way,

Yours dismissively,

[nicnicnic]

what time is the final tomorrow


Kenny Egan shouldn't be allowed to choose what he wears

your the only one that's trolling unless that is your actual opinion in which case...

Yours sympathetically

Big Deal on the Internet

[CHDad]

Ugh I'm taking a point off her for the strong god love in that interview

[DrJFF]

I have to say i like listening to Jimmy Magee cos you never know what he is going to say, and cause he's a bit older he comes out with ridic sayings that nobody would say

[Emmet]

What was her only losing fight? Trying to get details of it is difficult!

(I remember it was contentious?)

[Keane]

Between the reactions to that fight and the one last night it's fair to say the level of amateur boxing scoring knowledge in here is lolbad.

[CHDad]

The Russian she might meet in the final I think.

It was contentious

True that, whats the story with his eyebrows?

Wouldnt say it to his face mind.

I don't care if everyone's doing it, medal just isn't a verb.

BMX seeding starting now. Showing on BBC HD.

The least boring of all cycling events. Should be thrills and spills aplenty.

It's no longer a "might" meet situation.
Final is set. Taylor v Ochigava

[Dice75]

Showjumping's gonna be tight

[RoadSweeper]

RVP seen at airport

SPOILER

[Strewelpeter]

Looks like they have softened the course if anything, jump off against the clock for all medals IMO

[KevIRL]

From RTE

Sincere apologies to all who missed Katie Taylor fight live online this afternoon. The huge volume of traffic caused the website to crash.

We are investigating why our servers did not cope with the surge in users. The full fight will be online shortly.

Good luck to them tomorrow!

[The Situation]

Cian should be out for 2nd ride about 15.35 if they continue at this pace

[Dice75]

Looks like they have softened the course if anything, jump off against the clock for all medals IMO

Dunno, couple look quite high

[eamonhonda]

clock is becoming an issue this time

[Emmet]

I'm getting nervy. Plenty of faulters.

Going to strategically take a wee break soon.

[The Situation]

Getting nervous!

Can't see 3 of the 6 going clear under this pressure tbh. Thought the Swiss os looked the most impressive in the opening round.

[KevIRL]

Dutchy leading after 2 rounds with 1 penalty

[DrJFF]

watching the showjumping here,

how difficult is something like that and how much is down the rider and how much down to the horse?

is it mostly mares used?

[Laois Hammer]

is there another irish boxer tonight?*


*should have bookmarked kevs list

[Teddie]

that's sick.

[Dice75]

Sick

[The Situation]

So sick
