Nicola Adams has said that she will now switch her focus to the 2016 Olympics after winning gold at the Commonwealth Games on Saturday.

Team England boxer Adams overcame Michaela Walsh in the final of the women's flyweight section, before standing atop the podium to collect her medal.

"Now it is the small matter of Rio. I am looking forward to it and I cannot wait to get going," she told reporters.

"Hopefully I can create history again by becoming a double-Olympic champion. We have never had one in Britain before in boxing so I would love to be able to do that."

Adams won gold at the 2012 Olympics.
