Good for TV, but he won't be a champ long. Fight stopped. good stoppage.Quote:

He isn't an A+ prospect everyone was building him to be. I really don't see him being champ for long if he ever wins one. He has power, but that's about it. Then again nowadays all you need is power fans seem to overlook every other flaw. But those flaws will get him beat. So if he wants to stay undefeated he should stay on ESPN.Quote:

What if he becomes a champ and then constantly fakes injuries in order to get out of his title defenses?
Hope Augustus doesn't do something stupid and retires. He needs to keep fighting. I can get use to watching him in this position
Who said he was the second coming? I'm pretty sure the terms were exciting and pressure fighter.Quote:

Good point.Quote:

I said A+ because I thought he controlled Juaregui well and I probably overrated him a little much, calling him the second coming of Tszyu and everything.
But it doesn't change the fact that Augustus is old ;D Which of course is the point to be debated around for Majesty.
I don't know how much longer Kim can try to do this
Diaz is already having more success than I expected.
LOL its so easy to hit him, its like playing fight night versus an intoxicated Hatton the Hammer
Bbooommmm
LOL this guy is hilarious and awesome
Didn’t really look like Diaz wanted to continue
Majesty, what do you think about Kim vs a good boxer?
Fight didn't last long enough to find out his flaws lol Then again I didn't see anything but the knockout. Was too busy talking to someone on IM.Quote:

I seen Martinez before. Not sure where. Anybody catch where Martinez is from? Looks like some fool from the county.
pretty close fight here. Not bad for a swing fight. mega-hack 8:35
Kim the Korean Margarito!hehe
He certainly doesn't try to protect himself in the ring. He just Keeps throwing.
I don't know if he will go to far due to having no defense, but man he is exciting. He has real pop too.
Curry was the man
Bogere on telefutura now.
This is turning out to be a pretty damn good card, that first round was crazy.
Luna will take it

Lamont Peterson or Randall Bailey woulda murdered the kid tonight.
I'm a "glass half full" kinda guy, and I thought Augustus was mighty impressive in there, considering his age, and the fact he took the fight on 4 days notice. He was moving well (well... as well as his 38-year old legs could manage), throwing punches with bad intentions, and I'm sure he got Provo's attention on more than one occasion. It was a highly entertaining fight, and I'd watch it again in a heartbeat. With all the overblown and out of shape heavyweight bums flailing away at each other out there, and gasping for breath in between, I was pleasantly surprised by the action in the fight.
Seems like you're trying to have it both ways a bit.Quote:
