Silver: Roberto Cammarelle (Italy)

Bronze: Magomedrasul Medzhidov (Azerbaijan)

The home country added one of its last medals to its count thanks to Anthony Joshua defeating Italy's Roberto Cammarelle in the men's super heavyweight final. Joshua and Cammarelle fought one of the closest bouts of the tournament in this final with the hometown hero rallying back to win the gold.

Joshua won the final round and captured the gold, but Italy appealed the decision, ultimately having to settle for silver. Magomedrasul Medzhidov of Azerbaijan had already won the bronze before this bout began, earning it August 11 after losing to Cammarelle.

Men's Light Heavyweight 81kg

Gold: Egor Mekhontsev (Russia)

Silver: Adilbek Niyazymbetov (Kazakhstan)

Bronze: Yamaguchi Falcao Florentino (Brazil)

Egor Mekhontsev defeated Yamaguchi Falcao Florentino to reach the finals of the men's light heavyweight tournament, and he was able to edge out his opponent for gold.

Adilbek Niyazymbetov and Mekhontsev were dead even after three rounds forcing the countback tiebreaker to be evaluated. Both boxers were level in that as well, forcing the judges to simply vote for their choice to win the match which lead to the Russian's victory.

Men's Welterweight 69kg

Gold: Serik Sapiyev (Kazakhstan)

Silver: Fred Evans (Great Britain)

Bronze: Taras Shelestyuk (Ukraine)

Fred Evans may have been able to squeak by Taras Shelestyuk to get to the men's welterweight final, but Serik Sapiyev was the one who took home the gold medal.

The Kazakhstan boxer proved to be too much for Evans, winning the bout by a score of 17-9. Evans lost every round of the fight and Sapiyev had double his opponent's score heading into the third. Ukraine's Shelestyuk took the bronze after the aforementioned loss to Evans earlier in the tournament.

Men's Lightweight 60kg

Gold: Vasyl Lomachenko (Ukraine)

Silver: Han Soonchul (South Korea)

Bronze: Yasnier Toledo Lopez (Cuba)

Vasyl Lomachenko all but ran through the men's lightweight division at the London Games, capping off his tournament performance with a 19-9 gold medal victory over Han Soonchul of South Korea.

Gold: Robeisy Ramirez Carrazana (Cuba)

Silver: Tugstsogt Nyambayar (Mongolia)

Bronze: Misha Aloyan (Russia)

Cuba added it's second Olympics boxing gold medal in two days thanks to 18-year-old Robeisy Ramirez Carrazana defeating Tugstsogt Nyambayar of Mongolia in the men's flyweight final. The two were evenly matched throughout with Nyambayar and Carrazana separated by only one point heading into the third round.

In that round, Carrazana would do just enough to earn seven points compared to five for his competitor and giving Cuba one more gold medal to add to its count on the final day of the Summer Games.

Misha Aloyan of Russia rounded out the podium, taking the bronze medal after losing to Nyambayar earlier in the tournament.

Men's Heavyweight 91kg

Silver: Clemente Russo (Italy)

Bronze: Tervel Pulev (Bulgaria)

Usyk took home the gold for Ukraine topping Italy's Russo, 14-11 for the third Olympic gold medal in boxing for Ukraine in their history.

It was a tight bout until the third round. That was when Usyk began to pull away with power shots that dominated the Italian. No shame in Russo's effort, however, as he takes home his second consecutive silver medal.

Men's Light Heavyweight 81kg

Silver: Denys Berinchyk (Ukraine)

Bronze: Vincenzo Mangiacapre (Italy)

It was a tight bout and Berinchyk proved to be a worthy competitor, but in the end, Iglesias was just too much, scoring a 22-15 victory.

Vincenzo Mangiacapre fell behind early on the scorecards to Roniel Iglesias of Cuba on Friday in the semifinals of the men's light welterweight division, eventually losing, 15-8.

The scoring of the match was controversial after Pongprayoon had points deducted in the first round. But nevertheless, the Chinese will take home more gold in boxing thanks to Zou in what could be his last Olympic bout.

Paddy Barnes of Ireland lost to Zou Shiming in the semifinals on Friday to end up with the bronze medal in the men's light flyweight division.

Barnes' loss was a heartbreaker. Both boxers ended up with 15 points after three rounds, but after a count-back, the judges gave the bout to Shiming. A count-back tallies the punches closest to being scores throughout the fight. Shiming won the count, 45-44.

Silver: Nadezda Torlopova (Russia)

Bronze: Marina Volnova (Kazakhstan) & Jinzi Li (China)

New United States phenom Claressa Shields completed her surprising journey to an Olympic gold medal with a victory over Russia's Nadezda Torlopova.
