Belfast boxer Paddy Barnes has been sent home from the World Championships in Italy because of unacceptable behaviour.
Barnes reacted badly to a 15-4 defeat to Kenyan Peter Munkai in a battle for a place in the last 16.
When the result was declared, the Holy Family athlete threw his gloves onto the canvas in frustration at the final outcome.
Barnes was previously at the centre of controversy at the Beijing Olympics when he claimed he didn't want the bronze medal he won, and criticised the judges following his semi-final defeat.
