Knowing how good Burton can be, when motivated......really lets you see just how amazing Mayweather is. That was the "A" Burton in there with Floyd, & he did give Floyd an excellent fight, but Floyd again showed that he was born to box.
Great clip, Bozo.
Sad to see all the talent Augustus wasted away. If he had the drive and determination Mayweather has, Augustus would be Hall of Fame bound.
Maybe not HOF, but he could definitly be a top lightweight/lightlwelter or welter. He's a badass.
Agustus is the man, and he deserves to make a lot more money than he does. If he had come along in an age when boxing was a bigger sport, and champions lived up to their names and took the fights that the public wanted to see, he would be getting bigger fights.
Mayweather definitely got the worst of that. Augustus got hit with some great shots but none of them fazed him. Floyd on the other hand was dazed. That is exactly why my boy Hatton will beat Floyd.
You have to give it to Mayweather though he is so fast and throws some beutiful combos. The kid is definitely a great talent. One of the top P4P guys ever. He has a great killer insticnt. If he had the power to go along with that he would be dangerous.
Is hatton as quick as Augustas?
augustus is indeed the shit. one of my favorite fighters ever. he definately didn't win that round nor did he win that fight but i came out of that fight an augustus fan for life.
Funny thing is, so did Floyd. :D

ok, so your delusional. Floyd ripped him apart that round. Augustus sure can take a punch. And i agree the commentary was retarted. Floyd dominated the round, but augustus landed alot of GOOD shots. Floyd was drilling emmanuel there.
I agree, Augustus had some good moments in that round but Floyd had more. Towards the end Floyd was just giving him a pounding.
That was the story of the fight for the most part, but Augustus was walking through everything Floyd threw and was trowing back. He had Floyd's nose bloddy and his eye swelled up.
It was a gutsy and exciting preformance.
i didnt see mayweather getting the worst of anything in that round. augustus' head was like floyds punching bag.

IMO, the way to beat floyd is to be aggressive and come towards him. Don't stay in the middle of the ring where he can pop you all night long. Pressure him, making throw punches and counter.
Whomever follows that game plan will be succesfull against PBF.

Sorry, but this post sends the non sense meter into overdrive.
Mayweather carved up Augustus in that fight as a whole. It was thrilling because Augustus is a warrior, but Floyd won every round.
Saying that fight means Ricky is going to beat Floyd doesn't make much sense. Seperate styles, seperate fights.
It was also a long time ago. That's like me saying "I saw the Hatton McGee fight and that's exactly why Floyd is going to take him apart."
Come on.
