I notice augustus stopped throwing head shots too. I hope Olivera is OK. I read a short article that said he was taken to a hospital for some tests and then released.
I did not like the fact that Olivera drained so much weight too make the fight. In the third round I told my gf that most of the fatal head injuries occur after a fighter has drained too much to make weight and that Olivera is one of those fighters that would allow themselves to die in the ring. I think there should be three weigh ins. A fighter should not be allowed to be so heavy a week before the fight.
I had Olivera winning the 1st round by a close margin. He was just busier and coming foward and Augusta seemed to be feeling him out. After that it was all augusta
yea he was seriously worried about him, I kept wondering if he was going to throw a head shot but it never came. Even with this whole incident aside I really was impressed with Augustus, having seen him only fight floyd before he shwoed those angles very similar to Prince naseem.
he grabbed the back of his head during the fight looking very worrysome. At one point he was crying punching Emanuel after his head was hurting.
shit man i hope he's alright.
