McComb turns on the power to secure another Irish medal in Baku

Sean McComb secured Ireland a second European games medal with victory over Turkey’s Yashin Yilmaz yesterday.

McComb produced a solid dominating display to win on a unanimous 29-28 decision, securing a bronze medal and setting up a semi-final bout against Azerbaijan’s Albert Slimov on Friday.

“I stuck to my tactics that the coaches give me, they knew how the fight would have went if I stuck to my tactics,” admitted McComb, who started tentatively, taking control in the first round’s final minute.
