Swann congratulates Paddy Barnes on Olympic Boxing Bronze

Ulster Unionist sports spokesperson Robin Swann has congratulated Belfast boxer Paddy Barnes on achieving a Bronze medal at the Olympic Games.

Mr Swann said:

“I would like to congratulate Paddy Barnes on gaining a Bronze medal today at the London 2012 Olympics today.

Paddy put up a tremendous performance against his Chinese opponent and was very unlucky not to qualify for the Final.

He has now won Boxing medals at two Olympics and is an example of what can be achieved through hard work and dedication."
