LMFAO.. I am dumbfounded ! strange fellow Austin , you really never know? I think its his balance also that makes him awkward or whatever you call it?? , He has a bit of a drunken gate at times?


Lol, cc lords and amat it's funny to hear you guys trying to describe Ray Austin.

I had to google Ray Austin to make sure it was the same guy I was thinking of; it was. I can't believe he is fighting Wlad. It's funny when I googled him I came across this description in wikipedia: "a large, clumsy heavyweight with little power"

I agree with clumsy and awkward....I'm sure we could add "not particulary skilled" in there . I only saw him fight Ibragimov, and even though I didnt know who Austin was at the time I found myself rooting for him to win. I think it started out because I felt kind of bad for him, but then he ended up drawing. There is something likable about his big, clumsy ways...


I'd really like to see him pull and upset and beat Wlad. That would be crazy! Hopefully Wlad will be used to fighting "better" boxers and be thrown off by Austins very "unorthodox" style!
