Three more Irish boxers have progressed to the quarter-final stage of the the European Games in Baku.
Adam Nolan and Dean Gardiner joined Sean McComb in the last eight of their respective divisions on Saturday and now all three boxers are just one win away from a bronze medal at the inaugural Games in Azerbaijan.
Nolan eased into the last-eight of the welterweight competition after recording a unanimous decision, beating Italy's Dario Morello 3-0.
Gardiner also progressed with a hard-fought unanimous win over another Italian, Guido Vianello, with both boxers knocked down in the three-round super heavyweight bout.
Earlier, there was good news for McComb, who won his lightweight bout against Italy's Donato Cosenza 30-27, 30-27, 30-27.
McComb is now just one win away from a medal after winning his last-16 fight. Dean Gardiner is in action in the ring later today.
Meanwhile, Michaela Walsh lost her women’s bantamweight bout to Russia’s Elena Saveleva.
Five-time Irish champion Walsh lost a unanimous decision to world championship bronze medallist Saveleva 36-40, 36-40 and 37-39.
