Thread: Emanuel “The Drunken Master” Augustus

Emanuel “The Drunken Master” Augustus (38-29-6, 20 KOs), who recently acquired the vacant WBO Oriental welterweight belt in his last bout, has relocated to Las Vegas where he will train with Roger Mayweather. “I want to let all my future opponents know that Emanuel Augustus is on a mission to win a world title,” he says

I always love watching him fight but does anyone think he'd have a chance at winning a world title, if he is serious maybe light welter would be the easier option? thoughts?

He's entertaining but still competitive......i don't think so. I see him as the type of guys to test prospects and give them a test to see if they are ready for the next level.

He has almost no chance against a top 10 welter, let alone one of the belt holders. I like watching him though.

You could see he was on the slide way back against Jaime Rangel. He probably still has enough to beat "prospects" that don't really have it but not top guys or even top prospects.

Always great to watch though, or at least used to be.

who recently acquired the vacant WBO Oriental welterweight belt

I think he should've stayed at 140.

I like him as entertainment value,but if dont know if he'll last with being put in with the likes with serious fighters the likes of Pacman who's on his way up.Then again it'll be interesting to see how he operates under Mayweather.I like watching him.You never know he could be as big as our Prince Naz.
