Delicious moment as Orie continues England's super run

DELICIOUS ORIE was the first to admit that 'Golden Delicious' had a good ring to it, after recovering from a tough start to win Commonwealth Games super heavyweight boxing gold.

But having emulated the achievements of fellow Englishmen Joe Joyce and Frazer Clarke at the past two Games, he instead set his sights on emulating the wins of another countryman in Anthony Joshua.

Orie has made no secret in the past that it was Joshua who inspired him to step into the ring in the first place, and the pair have sparred at the GB Boxing base at Sheffield, where Joshua has prepared for many of his professional and amateur fights.

The latest man mountain off a seemingly endless conveyer belt within the British boxing fraternity is 25-year-old Orie, who at 6ft 6in has already mapped out plans for world and Olympic titles before joining Joshua, Joyce and Clarke in the professional ranks.
