Analyze this possible future Flyweight champ..
You guys probablly heard of him. Hes an amateur southpaw named Raushee Warren. i dont know much about him; just that hes about 20-21, been boxing since he was 6 and that hes slippery and can throw hands with Zab Judahlike speed and ferocity.

The only thing i can see as a weakness, is that his style is real hands low style. To goad you into walking straight into a quick right check hook or a counter left. The flaw i see with this is that he sometimes overextends with his leads which leaves hims open, and that he sometimes hops out of an exchange with his hands down, which gets him caught.
Also, every vid i've seen of him fighting, he kept his hands real low, and in one sparring clip, i heard his corner telling him to keep his hands up. So im wondering since hes been boxing since 6 years old, if his style has a high chance of being set in stone. It seems a brutal KO is somewhere along the way is highly likely unless hes just that damn good. I say hes vulnerable to a good left hook, or right hook from another southpaw.

Heres a clip of him in what i think is sparring against an team from Argentina.
Watch the combo 32 seconds into the video. Its dazzling. Right hook to the body, glancing overhand left, finished with a right hook to the head. This is the dazzling part, He then shifts laterally like a foot to the left, simultaneously slips a right from the opponent , and comes back with another left. All in the same combo. Im just in awe of his speed and the precision of the quick shift. But then, on the exit he had both hands down and got caught with a jab-right combo.
Also at the end of the video, he goes for 4 bodyshots and the last right hook to the body, he threw it and left his rear hand down and got caught with a small counter right hook, coulda been devastating.
So whats your guys analysis on this fighter? I like his style, but its fun also trying to find a way to beat him.

Thanks for posting this. I like watching him fight also but have had a hard time finding many vids. He's explosive and super fast. Moves well too and as far as the hands, in anything i've seen him in...he seems to just be so quick it don't matter for he isn't getting hit hard enough or often enough as he moves his head well.
I just think he is fun to watch, and a good shot for a gold for the USA at the Olympics.
