His biggest test will be against Ukrainian top seeded  ZAMOTAEV Dmytro in semis. He will be through to rio, after beating him.

Boxing prelims at Baku - Indian status 

 

48 kg - devendro reaches quarters has to win two more bouts to qualify 

64 Kgs - Manoj in the round of 16 ( won a good fight against 2nd seeded egy in the round of 32 ) has to win two bouts to qualify .....he has defeated the seeded player but will probably face a tough BUL boxer but he has the possibility to beat him 

75 Kgs - Vikas faces JPN boxer in the round of 32 today...has to win 3 bouts to qualify 

81 Kgs sumit sangwan is in the round of 16 having won two bouts - including defeating 8 seed from colombia ......... has to win 2 bouts to qualify 

 

Satish a bit unlucky as he was on even points at the end of round 2 , but the bout was stopped due to a cut he got ,,,,,,,,,,he had a good chance to reach the quarters 

 

I would love to see Vikas's form but if he is in form he should make it ....................... from the rest 1/3 I feel is a reasonable expectation ............... I had made a predication that we will have 2 qualifiers and would like to stick to it ( provided Vikas is in form )

Except 4x400 mtrs relay woman team.. None seem to qualify in Olympics... Being over optimistic doesn't make sense...

4X400m Men's team is stronger than the women's team and will surely qualify, they should progress further at Rio than the women's team. The 46.23s by Anas and Rajiv last week, was on a very wet track, so don't get disheartened. We expect 3 in boxing, 2 from the current event and Mary if she gets one. Apart from that at least 3 more quota in athletics is expected and we will get it, OP was a sure shot in 5000m, look at her timing in last Asian Games, don't know why she keeps shifting events, she is not upto the mark in 1500m, hope some sanity prevails.
