    If his head is in there to win, Augustus could come off with the shock win. I hope he does, but Figueroa is pretty skilled and will probably win through a unanimous decision.

      I guess he felt it pretty good in the sparring
      Surely he didnt want to say he had better technique...anyway yes, from the little i saw he looks like he throws with bad intentions. I believe hes on the rise, and Roy's square ring signing him prolly means he saw something good in this guy. Hes the safe bet on this one. Upset not impossible tho.

        he will beat augustus cuz augustus play around alot, and the judges dont like that... gato will be racking up points while augustus is dancin around
        Gato is a tough SOB, I've been to a lot of his fights live and he always comes to fight. His main problem is that he doesn't use his jab and usually just comes straight in from a distance and leaves a gap. Against Rodriguez I have to admit that I was a bit disappointed even though he beat the living crap out of the guy. He h

        Still, Gato is a puncher and we don't know how much Augustus has left. Gato is always in shape and has been training for this fight for awhile. I'd favor Gato but Augustus is not an easy fight by any means.
