Both Ragan and Davis have already turned professional. Ragan has signed with Top Rank and sports a 4-0 (1 knockout) record,  while Davis fights under the Matchroom Boxing umbrella and has a pro record of 3-0 (2 KOs).

Ragan will compete for the men’s featherweight gold on Thursday against the winner between Lazaro Alvarez of Cuba and Albert Batyrgaziev of Russia, who will meet later in the day, for the men’s featherweight gold, while Davis faces Armenia’s Hovhannes Bachkov, who also competed at the 2016 Games, on Friday.

The United States now has four boxers who are guaranteed medals in Tokyo, equaling their take at the 2000 Games in Sydney. That year, bantamweight Clarence Vinson and light middleweight Jermain Taylor earned bronze, while featherweight Rocky Juarez and light welterweight Ricardo Williams earned silver.

Two other American boxers are slated for semifinals bouts on Wednesday.  Super heavyweight Richard Torrez Jr, who will face Kazakhstan’s Kamshybek Kunkabayev, a two-time silver medalist at the World Championships, and women’s welterweight Oshae Jones will face China’s Gu Hong in the semifinals.
