Boxer Donnelly back in Commonwealth action tonight

Steven Donnelly resumes his Commonwealth Games campaign on Monday night.

The Ballymena fighter takes on Tonga’s Oscar Finau in the last 16 of the welterweight division.

The contest is scheduled to take place around 9.15pm at Glasgow’s SECC complex.

Of Ballymena’s other competitors, boxer Steven Donnelly was in action last night (Monday) as Times Sport went to press in his welterweight last 16 contest against Tonga’s.

Donnelly has already produced one of the most talked-about moments of the Games so far with his incredible stoppage of Pakistani opponent Hasan Asif inside 37 seconds of his opening round contest.

Steven said: “I trained tremendously hard for this and as you saw in the first round it all paid off.

“But I’m not going to get carried away, it’s only the first round and I have a hard second round ahead.”
