It's shame so many good US amateurs like him don't stick around for the Olympics. But coming from where they do, you can't fault them for going for the money. Olympic golds don't mean as much as they used to for US boxers and there is always the chance of getting robbed like Floyd and Roy Jones even though they did OK to say the least.

Thanks for the heads-up!! I looked through BoxRec & couldnt find him scheduled anywhere. Do you know where his pro debut will be held?

Boxrec list him as Gonte Lee, he'll be inaction in Tokyo on the Ogawa vs Aldea card in a few hours

The confusion over his name is due to how it's transcribed, with old amateur fights having him listed as Ri Gonte (or Gonte Ri). Or Kun Tae Lee, due to his Korean heritage.

His debut will be a 6 round bout against a Thai

Here's his boxrec, though I suspect a changing of his name will occur IF G+ who televise the bout follow Teiken's spelling http://boxrec.com/en/boxer/864506

He won already but his BoxRec profile shows him as born in Japan. I thought you said he was North Korean. Are they letting exiles compete for NK now? He's pretty tall for a super lightweight at 5'11".

I said he competed internationally for Korea ;), he's a third generation Korean in Japan. Here's an article about him competing for Korea (In Japanese https://www.nikkansports.com/battle/new ... 00880.html), he did so in a couple of major international events (including the 2018 Asian games where he fought as Ri Kon-Thae)

His debut can be seen here http://www.asianboxing.info/videos/kunt ... it-namkhot
