    Amateur achievements mean very little in the professional ranks.
    Whenever I hear a pro fighter introduced as "the former olympic bronze/gold medalist" or whatever, I just think to myself so what this is the pro game its different.

    Klitschko, Povetkin, Takam, Wach, Perez, Ortiz, Thompson, Glazkov, etc... Aka, full-time fighters and not carpenters like Gary Cornish.
