Paddy Barnes' nose is in a bad way after his fights against Istvan Ungvari in the quarter-final and Salman Alizada in the semi-final at the European Championships in Belarus. The Belfast man has been visibly bloodied in both fights.
Irish boxing coach, Billy Walsh, has a drastic solution to the problem according to RTÉ's, Hugh Cahill.
I asked Billy Walsh how they were gonna fix Paddys nose by tomorrow. Amputate it, he said.

If it came down to it, I'd say Paddy would agree to procedure.
