Ra'eese Aleem turned professional in 2011, with a second-round technical knockout of Dewaun Bell. He amassed a 15–0 record before making his TV debut on February 14, 2020, with a third-round stoppage victory against Saul Eduardo Hernandez.[1] On August 1, 2020, he notched a tenth-round technical knockout of Marcus Bates.[2] Bates was a last minute replacement for Aleem when his original opponent Tramaine Williams pulled out to be elevated to the main event as Stephen Fulton's substitute when he was sick with COVID-19.[3]
