He's about 117 or some **** isn't he? Someone at that small a weight doesn't get the exposure they usually deserve for their skills.

yea actually hes turning pro to fight in the WSB(World series of Boxing) which basically are pro fights they get paid for.. 5 round fights, no headgear with 10 point must system.. but they maintain their olympic eligibilty.. so the guys who fight for WSB only fight other guys who signed contracts with WSB and they still are eligible for the Olympics..Originally posted by RimmyDelicious View PostIsn't he waiting until after the 2012 Olympics to go pro?

How old is Raushee now? He fought in the last Olympics as well if I'm not mistaken. He must be in his early twenties now. Truth be told, he and the entire American squad were pretty poor in the last games and I don't have high hopes for any of them, but best of luck.Originally posted by JayWater39 View Postyea actually hes turning pro to fight in the WSB(World series of Boxing) which basically are pro fights they get paid for.. 5 round fights, no headgear with 10 point must system.. but they maintain their olympic eligibilty.. so the guys who fight for WSB only fight other guys who signed contracts with WSB and they still are eligible for the Olympics..

Never heard of this and I always told that no matter what, that if you become a prized fighter your eligibility to amateur boxing is over. So that would include Olympics.
But yeah I'm excited to see Rau as a pro one day. And don't let his weight fool you he can get exposure because he is just a fun fighter to watch. Plus he will naturally get bigger with age and eventually be at least at 132-140.
