Amateur career


The aggressive Southpaw brawler participated in the 2004 Summer Olympics for his native Caribbean country. There he lost 28:16 in the first round of the Lightweight (60 kg) division to Kazakhstan's eventual bronze medalist Serik Yeleuov.

At the PanAm Games 2007 he lost the quarterfinal 12:13 to Inocente Fiss. He qualified for the 2008 Olympics by defeating Myke Carvalho 8:6.

In Beijing though, he won all five bouts and after a controversial bout against Vastine, sensationally won Gold against reigning champion Manus Boonjumnong of Thailand. It was the nation's second ever Olympic gold after Félix Sánchez in 2004 and the second boxing medal after Pedro Nolasco won a bronze in Los Angeles in 1984.[1]
