      Augustus is a journeyman, he'd be completely outclassed. He may well be a cult hero, but he's just not worthy of a title shot.

          I cannot believe true boxing fans don't see the greatness in Emmanuel Augustus' style. Ask Floyd Mayweather who his toughest fight was and he'll say that EA was, hands down (I've read/seen him say this at least three times). Augustus loses many fights, that's true, but most are lost due to judges not liking his clowning around in the ring.

          Augustus has the skills to make Ricky Hatton look like an amateur. Ricky is a come-forward, grab-you-and-hit-you type fighter. Any stylish boxer (such as Luis Collazo, PBF, or Augustus) would make Ricky look bad. I had Ricky losing to Collazo and I think Augustus has more skills than Luis and would soundly beat Ricky. Ricky cannot box; Augustus has more boxing ability in my pinky than Ricky Hatton has in his whole body.

          Do I think he'd KO Hatton? No, but he'd win a decision against him anywhere in the world except Manchester.

          BTW, a well-trained Augustus (meaning an 8-week camp to prepare, not a last-minute sub) would beat any fighter at 140 pounds right now (including Cotto and Hatton) and most of the 147 pounders (except PBF and maybe Margarito).

            I think that he would likely give Hatton a good fight.But I don't think that he would pull it off.

              ROFL if you actually think Hatton would outbox EA you're a complete idiot. He's a great boxer... i've seen plenty of his fights and EA would have a very good chance at beating Hatton by decision, he's just a way better boxer then Hatton will ever be. You idiots probably just see the record and think blowout for Hatton.

                  After seeing what a slick boxer like Collazo could do to frustrate Hatton........I think if Augustus took it seriously and trained hard he would have a shot at a UD.
