Cahir Gormley celebrates his win in the United States earlier this year
Illies Golden Gloves boxer Cahir Gormley has received a boxing scholarship from the Irish Boxing Club in Scranton, Pennsylvania, USA.

He also defeated Demetress Wilson in Scranton previously.
Gormley was crowned a National Intermediate Champion late last year, defeating Brian Morgan via a 3-2 split decision in the 71kg final.
