2-Time Cuban Olympic Gold Medal winner Robeisy Ramirez leaves team

2-time Olympic Gold medal winner Robeisy Ramirez from Cuba has left his team, and maybe defecting, according to Dan Rafael of espn.com.

Ramirez abandoned the Cuban national team during a training camp this week in Aguascalientes, Mexico, a possible step toward his defection in pursuit of a professional career.

Ramirez, 24, won the 2012 flyweight Olympic gold medal in London and the 2016 bantamweight Olympic gold medal in Rio de Janeiro, defeating American Shakur Stevenson, a fellow southpaw, in the closely contested final.
