Michaela Walsh of Team Northern Ireland lost to India's Jaismine by unanimous decision in the Commonwealth Games boxing final. This defeat marks Walsh's third silver medal in the Commonwealth Games after previous silvers in 2014 and 2018, and a gold in Birmingham four years ago. The judges scored the fight 29-28 from three judges and 30-27 from two others, all in favor of Jaismine. A slow start in the first round hindered Walsh, and despite a stronger effort in the third round, she could not secure a victory. Northern Ireland aims for further success with Kaci Rock and Jon McConnell competing for golds later today.
