Thank you Vincent!
I thought that too, and I am Irish! It was so lovely to see the Irish athletes bow to their hosts and then Kellie is the most modest and perfect Olympic Champion! So proud! Congratulations Kellie!

What an amazing person. Well done young lady. We are so proud of you.
Amazing heart shown and Mz Harrington cleared up any doubts of her power punching ability and courage to get in close against stronger opponents..perfect Olympic display and this match is important to the world of women's boxing and the value of core body strength conditioning.... Outstanding coaching technique keeping that ability hidden until the end.
What a performance, absolutely amazing!! To perform like that in an Olympic FInal against an opponent of that quality is just incredibly. Strong candidate for greatest sporting performance by an Irish person and strong candidate for overall boxer of the tournament. Delighted for her, she deserves it all n more
Irish all over the world shouting and roaring for ya Kellie. From down here in New Zealand.
Kellie what an inspiration you are.. girl you prove that dreams do come true. Congrats and I wish you the very best. Ireland is extremely proud of you. You have lifted the spirit of the country. 🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮🇨🇮👍👍👍
Well done, Kellie! You've done us proud. As an ex-pat living in Tokyo I am doubly delighted!

Written to honour Kellie Harrington's Gold Medal for boxing in Tokyo Olympics. August 2021
KELLIE'S GOLDEN TEARS
Kellie shed sweet tears today
As her country's flag soared high.
Not tears of grief or pain or loss
But tears of joy and love.
Her medal gold, her bouquet gay
She held with humble pride,
Her gracious bows, Her charming smiles
Made friends of recent foes
We shared our tears with hers today
We shared her joy and love
Each tear she shed was a gift to us
to cherish for years to come.
These golden tears are healing tears
to wash away our woes.
We thank her for a job well done
to raise our spirits high.
Her endless hours of toil and sweat
Have reaped their just rewards.
We take her to our hearts with love
The Queen of Portland Row
HAKUNA MATATA.

Congratulations from Thailand. Amazing fight.
Colin Magrega should take note of this amazing human being that has dignity, respect, and pride in her country and her competitors
@Paul C Doesn't make him a better person. Kellie is a role model. Conor isn't.

A real Irish working class person is they best person you can meet 👍🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪 well done Kellie 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
Good on u Kellie u are worth in gold as spectator hear comes paris good luck *Good health 🇮🇪🇮🇪🇮🇪
The only thing she’s wrong about is ‘everyone who steps in between those ropes is a Champion’. Not true Kellie. While they are great and have achieved so much YOU ARE THE CHAMPION. Modesty as well as unreal skill,talent and dedication- what an achievement. Huge congratulations 👏👏👏🇮🇪
Well done Kelly your a role model for children all over the world 🇮🇪
Great win , well executed. Brilliant.
Who down voted this? What a sad thing to do!! Well done Kellie, you have made Ireland proud 🇮🇪❤️☘️☘️
They’re jealous losers who hate to see others do well and achieve something as great a gold medal at 2nd biggest sporting event in the world. Who cares about them.
True dedication rewarded. Kellie you are and have been an inspiration.☯️
Housing

Dublin accent West Cork power.
🇮🇪🥇inspirational
I'm now sure Johnny Sexton is Kellie's twin Sister 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Come up with some better questions then "how does it feel?" continuously . It's not a Bob Dylan song.
Lmao
She was like a rolling stone in there. Kelly 'Rolling Stone' Harrington
Tada gan iarracht
I am SO glad she looks like a woman, SOUNDS like a woman and have the manerisms OF a woman..I can safely deduct that she IS a woman and not a transgender taking the gold.
Where's the tricolour Kellie 😁🇮🇪

Wth is she talking about
Why is this even a thing 😂
GO TEAM GB.
?
The clue is in the name WALLY. Gobshite
Shots fired
Rofl. Yes go Team GB. Ye were great lads
I respect her. But Olympic boxing is a disgrace. She did not win. Brazil won. Just wrong.
Don't think so Irish girl walked away with the Gold medal Brazilian girl silver show some respect and except defeat.!!!! The Brazilian girl did.!!!!
Greg Moore expect defeat we won live with it
Greg didn't stay/get up to watch it.
Kelly's second round was a masterclass and she clearly outlanded in the third too.
