One of the best entertainers of all time IMO. he did all kinds of weird **** in fights. He wasn't really champ material IMO, but he was no pushover.

he's dope and one of my favorite fighters. only time I remember mayweather bleeding was against Augustus.

They stopped that fight prematurely too. I mean, Augustus was getting beat, but he was holding his own and hitting mayweather with some tough shots too. If it was a known name fighter they wouldn't have stopped it, but they figured it was some bum and supposedly an easy night for mayweather.

He did not win any world titles, you're misinformed. But here are some of his highlights:

Did they teach him the brazilian Capoeira or somethin'

watch his fight against Micky Ward. Fight of the year in 2001. No drunkin fighting or anything like that, just a straight war.

And for the record I had Burton (Augustus) winning the fight.
