Magnificent McCloskey only a win away from Olympic spot

PAUL McCLOSKEY is one fight away from the Olympic Games following another spectacular victory at the qualifying tournament in Warsaw yesterday.

The Irishman stopped Greek hopeful Spiridiom Ionnidis on the 20 point rule early in the third round of their light welterweight quarter-final.

He can secure his Athens berth if he defeats Patrick Bogere of Sweden today.
