Also, I never hear the actual weight announced for the fight, anyone know? Floyd had never fought above 130 and that's where he fought Corrales of course, but Augustus was 140 basically his whole career.
Both fighters weighed in at 134. It was a non-title fight that took place on HBO's Saturday morning boxing show KO Nation. It was paired with Lamont Brewster fight against Charles Shufford. It was an entertaining, one-sided fight
