GB Boxers Guaranteed Three Medals at European Championships

Great Britain has guaranteed at least three medals at the European Boxing Championships being held in Bulgaria, after three of its boxers reached the semi-finals of their respective divisions.

Chantelle Reid, Damar Thomas and Abdul Burton all secured their places in the last four, ensuring each will leave the tournament with at least a bronze medal regardless of how their semi-final bouts unfold.

The results mark a strong showing for the Great Britain boxing team at the continental championships, with all three fighters now one win away from a place in their weight class final.

Further details on the semi-final schedule and Great Britain's remaining boxers in the competition were not specified, though the guaranteed medals add to the team's tally from the tournament so far.

The European Boxing Championships bring together fighters from across the continent to compete across a range of weight divisions, with medals awarded for gold, silver and two bronze places in each category.

Great Britain's boxing programme has produced a number of successful amateur competitors in recent years, several of whom have gone on to compete at the Olympic level.
