Ireland’s latest world boxing superstar won’t be able to compete at the Olympics

That's Kellie, with an I-E.

Kellie Harrington is into a world boxing final, after a wonderful performance this morning in her semi-final fight against Sara Cali. The 26-year-old Dubliner won all three rounds against her Canadian opponent, and is now looking forward to winning a gold or silver medal after a stunning week of boxing in Astana. https://twitter.com/SportsJOEdotie/status/735777593270509569 She has become just the fifth Irish person ever to reach a world boxing final after Katie Taylor, Jason Quigley, Michael Conlan & Joe Ward. https://twitter.com/Ciaran_Gally/status/735777556327071748 Unfortunately, however, as Harrington boxes at 64kg, she is not eligible to compete at the Olympics in Rio, as there are only three weight categories for women under IOC rules. https://twitter.com/gavreilly/status/735778408223768576 https://twitter.com/DeirdreNelson11/status/735195161655955457 https://twitter.com/SugarShaneMoose/status/735183138956021760
