Weight anguish for Gavin

Midlander Frankie Gavin's Olympic dream is over after he admitted defeat in his bid to make the 60kg lightweight limit.

The 22-year-old had been left behind at the GB holding camp in Macau to lose the final few pounds in time for Friday's vital pre-draw weigh-in.

Team GB boxing coach Terry Edwards said: "Frankie has been working his whole career towards the Olympic Games and is completely devastated."
