Marine Kyle Shaw-Tullin has won a gold medal for Great Britain at the Gee Bee tournament in Helsinki, Finland.

The Royal Navy and Royal Marines competitor is one of the brightest stars in military boxing and built on an Inter Services win over Sapper Marley Devitt with a crushing performance for GB.

His week started with a split-decision victory over home country hero Benjamin Eriksson, which set the Marine up for a semi-final clash with Frenchman Hassana El Qadmi.

The Brit was in dominant mood and dispatched his opponent with a referee's stoppage in the second round to book his place in the final.

His opponent there was Australian fighter Linkyn MacMillan, and a classy display saw Mne Shaw-Tullin pick up a unanimous decision win.

His gold continues his impressive form in international competitions after winning gold for England at the Grand Prix in Zagreb, Croatia, in December and the Three Nations in Scotland in June.
