Great Britain's Luke Campbell beat Ireland's John Joe Nevin to win the men's bantamweight final in front of a home crowd.
Campbell beat Nevin 14-11 to highlight five title fights Saturday night at the London Olympics, saying afterward the crowd of 10,000 people inspired him to the victory.
"You can't describe the feeling. It's once-in-a-lifetime to be part of the Olympics and represent Great Britain," said Campbell.
