    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.

              I absolutely LOVE Augustus' dancing style. Its so fun to watch. That Trujillo fight was hilarious. As was the Burton fight.

              Did anybody really have Olivera winning any rounds? I had it a shutout for Augustus. He was clearly controlling the fight from the opening bell.

                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

                  Yeah the only round I could've possibly seen for Olivera was the 2nd round. I felt the first one was Augustus'. Meh, still a good fight.

                  I wish I could get all Augustus' fights on DVD. His fights are much harder to come by, the ones that exist, which I don't even know for sure what they are prior to the Mayweather fight.

                    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 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.
