Australian boxers Shelley Watts, Daniel Lewis and Jason Whateley are one win away from qualification for the Rio Olympics.
The trio prevailed in their quarter-finals at the Asian and Oceania Olympic qualifiers in Quin'an, China on Tuesday and will earn spots on the plane for Brazil if they are successful in their semi-final bouts on Thursday.
