Leeds flyweight Nicola Adams has to settle for the silver medal at World Championships in Qinhuangdao.

Leeds flyweight Nicola Adams has had to settle for the silver medal at the World Championships after losing her final 14-10 to China's Ren Cancan.

Adams was unhappy with the judges' verdict and told BBC Sport: "I thought the scoring was a bit wrong.

"But that's boxing for you. I believe I won it but didn't get the decision."

The Yorkshire fighter is now looking to this summer's home Olympics, having secured her place in the Team GB squad by reaching the semi-finals in Qinhuangdao.

"This hasn't dented my confidence. It's been a great experience and I've had an amazing time," added Adams.

"I qualified for the Olympics and that's what I came to do. In London, it'll be on my own turf so the score will be different then.

"I'll be going for gold. I'll get a bit fitter and have a bit more technical ability."

The opening ceremony for the Olympics takes place on July 27.
