Don’t miss a beat of the action, scores and updates with our Rio Olympics boxing results day 4 live update blog.
Day 3 brought about a couple of shocks in this year’s Olympic boxing action, perhaps the most notable being Irish light-flyweight and two time Olympic bronze medallist Paddy Barnes narrowly losing out in his first bout of the games in a shock defeat.
After the fight the colourful Barnes said it was a matter of the weight just finally catching up with him and that in fact it would be the last time he would be making the light-flyweight limit, opting to now move up a weight next time he competes.
For the full results and scores from yesterday at day 3 you can find them here.
