The 57kg contender beat Tokyo’s silver medallist Carlo Paalam 3-2 in a tense, split-decision win on Saturday at North Paris Arena. With the semi-final losers receiving bronze it means he’s guaranteed some rare Olympic boxing silverware regardless of the result against Abdumalik Khalokov when competition moves to Roland Garros on Thursday. No *********** has won an Olympic boxing title and the country only boasts six medallists, Harry Garside ending a 33-year drought with bronze in Tokyo three years ago. Senior lost the first round 3-2 but won the second by the same margin when he rolled the diced and attacked his smaller ********* opponent. Only one judge had split the rounds, Irish official Ben McGarrigle effectively with the result in his hands when he was one of three judges to give the third round to the ***********. Senior iced the win with a backflip in the centre of the ring as the *********** contingent celebrated wildly. Caitlin Parker will ****** in her quarter-final on Sunday. She is the only other survivor among a record 12-strong *********** contingent that qualified for the Games.
