Ex-boxer punches woman

- DANIEL McGOOKIN

A MAN who was paid thousands of dollars to inflict punishment in the boxing ring, taking his talents across the globe, has pleaded to punching a woman in the head.

About a month later, he shared intimate shower pictures of the woman in an act of revenge porn.

Former boxer Renold Quinlan, 32, rose to fame with a knockout win over Daniel Geale in 2016, has pleaded guilty to striking a woman he was previously in a relationsh­ip with in frightenin­g scenes in south west Sydney.

Following a relationsh­ip breakdown which saw Quinlan (pictured) staying at a refuge, the boxer arrived unannounce­d at the victim’s Campbellto­wn home in August last year.

Court documents state a war of words erupted in which an angry Quinlan made allegation­s of infidelity.

When the woman went to her car to leave, the profession­al boxer rushed over and punched her in the head causing her to drop to the ground.

In a Sydney court on Friday, the 32-year-old had his sentence adjourned for two weeks so a psychologi­cal report could be completed. .
