Barnes retained the gold medal he won in Delhi four years ago.

Paddy Barnes beat India's Devendro Laishram to claim gold in the light-flyweight division at the Commonwealth Games in Glasgow. The Belfast fighter secured a clear points win with a controlled performance in the Hydro. At the medal ceremony, as 'Danny Boy' - or 'The Londonderry Air' to give it its official title - played out, Barnes is seen mouthing "that's not my anthem." H/T @sweetirishf
