Can anyone help me find info on Gavin "The Rock" Rees' amatuer record? Did he win any significant amatuer tourneys? He's set up for a WBO title against Mike Anchondo of Los Angeles and I'm looking to write a piece on him for our local paper here in Costa Rica.

Well, he turned pro at 18 (as did Anchondo), so wouldn't really have had time to win anything major as a senior.
I'll have a search.

He was a good amateur. He won a Welsh Federation title as a senior before turning pro. That's all I've discovered.
