Men's light heavyweight
Steve Bunce
Commentator on BBC Radio 5 LiveBen Whittaker wins four contests, bashes up the danger man the Russian, he boxes like a dream, he entertains us and goes three rounds and he clearly won that last round.
If you'd said to me six months ago that would happen, I would've said go and have a lie down.
I thought he could've taken the second round with just a bit more work, one judge gave him the second round and he took the last round. Whittaker was close in that fight, he didn't win but he will rue that he got close to a Cuban.

Ronald McIntosh
Boxing commentator on BBC TVA brilliant display from Lopez.
The emotion is pouring out of Ben Whittaker. He comes away with an absolutely outstanding silver medal, the 24-year-old.
A bright future, whatever he elects to do. Maybe, just maybe, the current mayor of Wolverhampton will let him wear those mayoral chains and go onto mayoral duties with him.

Steve Bunce
Commentator on BBC Radio 5 LiveHe's boxing very well in this round, it looks like the Cuban has done the most improbable Cuban thing and slowed down. But Ben is tired, he is still trying to box and he's already lost the fight so he should just go for it - give us a 60 second flurry Ben!

They tack right on the breeze of the Polish team.

More from GB's Sky Brown, who hopes she has inspired young girls after her women's park skateboarding bronze.
"I really hope I inspire young girls, I feel like people aren't too young that they can't do it, but if you believe in yourself you can do anything. I believed in myself.
"Anyone can do skateboarding. You don't have to be of a certain height or have to be a certain age, you can do it whenever you want. It doesn't matter about height or age. You just got to skate and go for it."

Men's light heavyweight
Steve Bunce
Commentator on BBC Radio 5 LiveComfortable round - Ben Whittaker's controlling things at a distance, throwing simple shots, not committing. He's struggling slightly when the Cuban switches stance. The Cuban will probably take this though - this is going to come down to a three minute sprint.
I thought Whittaker nicked that round, but the Cuban had bigger punches.
