I just had my first Amateur bout this weekend and saw a video of it. I won the fight but I have a lot to improve on. My performance wasn't anything amazing, and I think I have potential to develop my skills to a much higher degree. My questions are: Did the pros also look "amateurish" when they fought their first amateur fights? Could you tell they had potential but they need a lot of improvement to go through? Or did they look like they are the ones who are going to make it to the pros?

That what counts, or, it did count when amateur rules were closer to pro rules like was the case in 70-80 and beginning of 90's. This is why guys like Sugar Ray Leonard, Pernell Whitaker, Oscar DLH, Tyson really benefited from their amateur exerience.
