    I've been told I should since my style is more suited for professionals rather than the amateurs. But I don't know. We'll see how the next few years go.

    Pretty flat footed. I like to get in there an slug and bang. I'm terrible at the long 1-2s and run stuff even though I'm tall for my weight.

    Well my ultimate goal would be the Olympics in 2012.
    That's a fair whack off.
    But if the fairytale comes true, professional ranks would be interesting afterwards, could make some decent cash with Olympic background.

    Yup. Right now my main goal is to reach the Olympics. After 2012, win or loose i will definately consider going pro.

    i train like a pro and even have a pro coach
    he said he'll take me full time if i wana go pro but he said i should wait til im older an stronger which is quite obvious
    tho im very defensive minded and like to pace myself so 3 min rounds would b much beter than 2 4 me

    Records tend to be kind of irrelevant in the amateurs; particularly in the part of the country we live in. I've seen some guys with a record that's so-so by the numbers or even have losing records but are extremely good (this one 16 year old I've seen comes to mind).
