No Controversy Here: Women's Olympic Boxing Quarterfinals Results

Women's boxing put on a hell of a show Monday, mostly washing the nasty taste from yesterday's terrible judging out of our collective mouths. There was atmosphere, upsets and feel-good stories galore at the Excel Arena in East London. Hometown favourite Natasha Jonas combined with Katie Taylor in a lightweight Quarterfinal to put on one of the more memorable bouts of the Games so far. Other impressive ladies included Indian legend Mary Kom and America's Marlene Esparza.
