Adams congratulates Katie Taylor on third successive world title
Sinn Féin President Gerry Adams has congratulated Katie Taylor on winning her third successive world title this evening.
Mr Adams said:
"Katie has made the whole of Ireland proud tonight with third successive world title.
"This is a magnificant achievement for Katie and for Irish boxing.
"I also want to pay trubute to the Irish Ladies under 17s who got to the world cup quarter finals and were unluckily beaten by Japan last night."
