Not 100% certain, but I think Kermit Cintron didn't have any amateur experience.

Mike tyson?? I dont think he had any ... he was straight off the streets i think.... i might be wrong

Raheem Rahman, I believe had zero ameteur fights. If he did, it was merely for a short while.

He did. He almost made the US Olympic team but was outpointed.

Probably most of the fighters from Mexico. Some of them are already fighting grown men at the age of 14...

Tyson definitely had amateur fights mate - this is from http://www.csua.berkeley.edu/~chihyuan/pages/TYSBIO.HTM

Bringing Tyson to the Catskill Mountains in New York, D'Amato nurtured Mike in and out of the ring. Eventually, Cus became Mike's legal guardian and inspirational leader. D'Amato was the driving force behind Tyson in the early years and his motivation was directly responsible for a fine amateur record of 24-3.

Two controversial losses to Henry Tillman spoiled Tyson's chance to represent the United States in the 1984 Olympic Games in Los Angeles. Tillman went on to win the gold medal in the heavyweight division at the '84 games.
