WATCH: Paddy Barnes’ reaction to the Michael Conlan decision says a thousand words

Carl Kinsella

Everyone with even a passing interest in Irish boxing is feeling aggrieved over Michael Conlan’s loss this afternoon.

Not least his fellow boxer Paddy Barnes, who lost his own opening Olympic fight just days ago.

Barnes, who watched the fight from above, joined in with the rest of the stadium by reacting in outrage and making gestures with his hands as if to symbolise money being a factor in the judges’ decision.

RTÉ shared the video of Barnes reacting from their Twitter account.
