Nicola Adams

[sourdrawers]

she's on now, anyone watching?

round 1 to Nicky I'd say.

round 2 as well

round 3 too, she's won this I'd say.

4th here we go, go Nicky.

Split decision? No way. She's won it, what a great person she is. I love her.

What a great opponent she had too.

I see I've stirred up a real hornets nest of opinions here. Sorry folks!

England's first ever Women's boxing gold at Commonwealth games? Anybody??

Haha

Yes, she is amazing.

Brilliant

She does come across as a lovely person . I must say that disappointed or not her opponent came across as a very bad loser in the post fight interview ,which is quite unusual for boxers .

spoiler here! I never understand for the life of me that people bash each others brains out (literally)and call it a sport!

same with rugby and why cant they wear helmets like American football and avoid the nose breaking?

It's not really a spoiler if I don't care what you think.

rafander that's not a spoiler. Hth.

I saw Nicola box during the Olympics as randomly the only tickets were for women's boxing never let DH pick by himself again. We saw Nicola Adams and Katie Taylor and they were amazing.

she is great, gotta love nicola adams!

I love her. Beautiful smile, great sportswoman

Her opponent was impressive. But like you Floralnomad I was disappointed at her comments post fight. I thought (unbiasedly I hope) that Nicky came off better in just about every exchange.
Rafanderpants I'm not sure anybody 'literally' has their brains bashed out in Women's boxing.

She's great

Phew...just checking my facebook details hadn't come up with the pic!

I took this just after the Olympics and she was so nice chatting with the kids and everyone, was a pleasure to meet her!

I didn't see the medal ceremony but my sister said the loser was still not being very gracious .

The loser does an impressive line in trash talk.

OP. are you Nicola's mum?

That would be so cool if she was!

No! Bloddy hell... I'm full of admiration for Nicola but if DD told me she was taking up boxing I'd chin her.
