A Tribute to Georgia O’Connor
May 22, 2025 | by Nabillah Akhtar
England Boxing is deeply saddened to learn of the passing of Georgia O’Connor.
A hugely talented boxer and much-loved member of the boxing community, Georgia inspired many with her achievements in the ring and her spirit outside of it.
Georgia’s amateur career was marked by exceptional success, including a gold medal at the 2017 Commonwealth Youth Games, silver at the 2017 Youth World Championships, and bronze at the 2018 Youth World Championships. She also competed with distinction at the European Youth Championships, winning multiple medals throughout her junior career and reaching the quarter-finals in 2018.
Her dedication, passion, and talent made her a role model for young athletes across the country. Georgia’s legacy will live on in the hearts of those she inspired, and she will be deeply missed by all who knew her.
Our thoughts are with Georgia’s family, friends, coaches and everyone in the boxing community at this difficult time.
