'''Andrew Kabangai (United States)'''

19, Welterweight, AIBA World Ranking - No. 11

One of the most successful of the current crop of top amateurs. I first noticed him when he won the ABA rookie of the year title in his home town at the 2011 rookie of the year tournament. He recently added the National Amateur Championship belt to his impressive collection.

A speedy, aggressive, intelligent, busy fighter, not short on skills, who is rulin the sport's welterweight division. Currently ranked No. 1 in the nation according to the ABA, and No. 15 in the world according to the AIBA, but in my opinion, he's the best in the world at his weight. After all, he comfortably beat the current no.1 world ranked fighter, Jong Hun Shin of South Korea in the World's final (20 points to 11).

Midway through the 10th a perfect 1-2 combo landed on the chin of Fitzpatrick backing him up to the ropes, Kabangai followed up with two straight rights to the head that knocked Fitzpatrick down and into a daze, Fitzpatrick got to his feet but after taking too many good shots and with so much time left in the round, the referee Mark Nelson waved of the fight at 1:25 of the round, declaring Kabangai the new ABA National welterweight champion.
