Team GB's Joe Joyce through to super-heavyweight final

Team GB boxer Joe Joyce is through to the final in the men's super heavyweight division after recording a unanimous points win over France's Tony Yoka.

Team GB's Joe Joyce claimed a spot in the final of the men's super-heavyweight event at the European Games in Baku this morning.

The 29-year-old recorded a unanimous points win over France's Tony Yoka, getting the better of his opponent in the opening two rounds before surviving a late push from Yoka as he sought a knockout.

It is the first time that the Briton has been involved in a fight that has gone the distance at these Games, knocking out his previous two opponents in the opening round.

Joyce will face Russia's Gasan Gimbatov in the final after he was awarded a walkover following Mahammadrasul Majidov of Azerbaijan's withdrawal through injury.
