Amateur boxing career Awesome is a Southpaw that fights with a counterpuncher style. He first started boxing in 2005 to lose weight. A few months later he moved to Port St. Lucie, Florida, where he continued to box for Fort Pierce P.A.L. and won 18 consecutive matches in the super heavyweight class. On his return from the suspension, he legally changed his name to "Cam F. Awesome" and resumed his pursuit of the 2016 Olympic Games in Rio de Janeiro, where he became a leading frontrunner to represent the United States as a super-heavyweight. He lost to Lenier Pero at the 2015 Pan American Games but was noted for his energetic performance during the bout and in post-fight interviews, where he gained attention for calling himself "the Taylor Swift of boxing".

At the U.S. Olympic team trials in December 2015, he won the 201-pound weight class. However, due to his international ranking, this only qualified him for the 2016 APB and WSB Olympic Qualifier where he was eliminated in the quarterfinals.
