Nicola Adams insists the carrot of making further history is what is driving her on at the forthcoming European Olympic qualifiers in Samsun.
Great Britain have sent 13 athletes to Turkey with multiple qualification places for Rio on offer for both men and women – although for the women there is another chance to qualify at the World Championships in Astana, Kazakhstan in May.
And Adams, who could bag a hat-trick of titles this year, is intent on sorting out her summer plans early on.
"I want to do it first time round, I don't want to mess about," she told BBC Sport.
"I want to qualify at the Europeans next week. To think that I could be European, World and Olympic champion in the same year is absolutely epic.
"It's that little piece of history that is my motivation."
