Donegal boxer Jason Quigley’s rapid rise up the boxing ranks continued tonight when he reached the final of the IABA Elite Championships.
The Finn Valley boxer had beaten London 2012 Olympian Darren O’Neill in the quarter-final last week.
And he went one step further at the National Stadium in Dublin by beating the highly-fancied Conrad Cummins from the Holy Trinity club in Belfast in his semi-final.
Quigley did it the hard way by coming from behind going into the last round to win 17-14 after both boxers had received public warnings.
But there was a huge cheer for the young Donegal boxer when he was given the decision.
Quigley, who boxed in the 75 kg category, will face the biggest fight of his career to date next weekend when he boxes in the final of the championships.
