Intro:
England's Nicola Adams and Paddy Barnes of Northern Ireland claim boxing gold medals at the 2014 Commonwealth Games in Glasgow, Scotland, on Saturday.
Script:
England's Nicola Adams became the first female Commonwealth Games boxing champion on Saturday.
The 31-year-old beat Northern Ireland's Michaela Walsh in the women's flyweight final in Glasgow.
The Leeds boxer landed the cleaner shots throughout the four-round contest and was awarded a split decision.
However Belfast's Walsh said she felt "cheated" at the result.
There was some joy for the Northern Irish when Paddy Barnes retained his Commonwealth Games light-flyweight title.
The Belfast-born fighter out-pointed India's Devendro Laishram in the Hydro to claim a clear points victory and add to the title he won in Delhi four years ago.
