        That is pretty cool. I'm always happy to see fighters that know where to draw the line, and happy to see them show respect for their fellow fighters.

              it was extremely classy and quite frankly i'm impressed to hear you feel the same way being that you are a bit younger.

              i like smoger. he actually shows concern about the fighters.


              heh, im comparing smoger to that referee who refd corely/cotto, lol, its like comparing an ant to a praying mantis..


              I felt like Augustus took a lot of unneccessary shots early in the fight, but he has tremendous skill. ****ing guy clowns around a little too much though.Olivera just gassed out too early but I admired the courage and heart he showed after being injured and coming back like a warrior and landing some shots.

                Augustus doesn't clown around too much. He's already said in interviews recently that its an unorthodox style. I'd say its been effective. He does get hit too much though, taking shots he shouldn't be, which he should be able to dodge. And that's the only reason Cotto or Hatton would probably beat him.

                  Augustus uses drunken boxing. Its as simple as that. He is not clowning around. He is allowing himself to rest by lowering his arms, gain focus by resting his mind from dealing with the fundamentals, and create unpredictable angles.. Most of the time it has the opposite effect for his on th guy he is facing who seem to lose focus, tense up and expend more energy trying to catch him with somthing big, or they become predictable trying to jab and catch him with somthing quick and easy.

                  Speaking of class isnt it ironic that earlier in the show we were seeing Laila Ali pulling her leg back to kick Christy Martin while she was down?

                    Anyone else think Smoger looks like uncle Leo from Seinfeld?
