Ward took the bout 30-27, 30-27 and 29-28, showing confidence and maturity beyond his years and not even a cut above Ward's left eyebrow late on was enough to stop his forward progress.
Things went from good to great for Conlan after the afternoon of boxing when he was awarded 'Boxer of the Tournament,' the second consecutive time that the honour was taken by an Irish bantamweight after John Joe Nevin in 2013.
