      I dont think he was shot. He just kept getting nailed by that jab and he couldnt get past it.

      He used to avoid a good jab, like he was able to get past Mayweathers in there fight. He's clearly past his best, but if u saw his fight with Stoner and his second fight with Burton, he clearly has fight left in him.

          I saw the Burton fight- he looked great. But that makes it even more confusing as to why he looked so bad against Kid Diamond.

          I mean, you pretty much hit the nail on the head- He was getting NAILED with jabs, all night. Now, we both know that even when he loses, Augustus is the slickest mofo around. That night, he couldn't get defense OR offense going.

          But, hey. I hope you're right. Maybe he didn't prepare properly for that fight.

            Mayweather didn't jab. That was just an all out slug fest.

              What i think happened was his trainer or something told him that he (augustus) is starting to get old and if he wants to be champ again he has to start being more serious in the ring u know?

              Cause he COMPLETELY stopped doing his moves and everything and wasnt even trying to be elusive it seemed.

              And when he started to dance, he was already exhausted. so idk, we'll see on August 31st. Hopefully its on TV or something

              I havent seen the fight in a while, but i was just watchin highlights on youtube and in the early rounds whenever Mayweather threw his jab, Augustus was able to slip it. Thats probably why Mayweather may have abandoned it later on.
