    I thought he had a flashy pro style, was having a few problems though - didn't have it all his own way did he? Still, very entertaining.

    USA got a solid team so far. Raushee is the icing on the cake.

    not sure if they'll all win gold but theyre most definately bringing back some medals.

    Errol Spence looks promising.

    Nice combos and attacked the head and body equally well in the fight I watched.

    Keep an eye out for Selby at 52kgs. He's the most skilled GB fighter at the games imo and nearly won gold at the world champs but lost to the russian by 1 point.

    I recently watched some of Rau'shee World Series of Boxing fights on Youtube. Check them out, especially the one against a Thai fighter.

    [ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YnE_zSId9m8[/ame]

    Here's the deal. Rau'shee has great handspeed, counters nicely, lands flashy shots. His defense is all head movement and he's elusive, but not elusive enough. He's not Pernell Whitaker. He gets touched.

    He is having trouble with the physicality and workrate of a come forward fighter who applies pressure. He scraped by with a close SD against this unheralded opponent in a pro-style fight. I think Rau'shee will have trouble in the pros when he faces a tough pressure fighter.

    Every time a world tournament or Olympic are coming this Rau Shee guy always get very hyped, but always disappoint He is now way older than almost all His competition if He do not win a medal, He should turn pro, but His long amateur career will be problems to adapt to the pros.
