Hungary's Anna Luca Hamori celebrating as the decision of her fight against Tullamore's Gráinne Walsh was being announced at the Olympics in Paris this afternoon. Disappointment for Gráinne Walsh as she suffers defeat at OlympicsGráinne Walsh's involvement at the Olympic Games ended this afternoon (Sunday), when she suffered a split decision defeat to Hungary's Anna Luca Hamori. Hamori made an aggressive start and shaded a scrappy opening round on the judges' cards, as the Offaly woman struggled to find her rhythm. Walsh had a bit more success in the second round, and received a boost when Hamori's spoiling tactics resulted in her being deducted a point by the referee. And so it did, with four of the judges scoring the bout for Hamori, against one for Walsh.
