A nice article here about the current trials and tribulations that Augustus is going through, trying to find a big fight.
Posted by b-ruce at November 2, 2006 4:13 PMI saw Emmanual Augustus about two years ago on ESPN just when I started becoming a boxing fan. He alone made me a hardcore boxing fan. He flew by John Stockton as my all time favorite athelete, which was (if you knew me) a seeminly impossible task. I have seen enough of him to realize that he deserves to get his pay day and if he is given more then a week of training then he can make a fight with anyone. He is constantly taking ridiculously hard fights over and over and "upsetting" his opponunt. More people must see this amazing man, I have done my best turning all my sport fan friends and family into fans of him, but I can only do so much. IT IS TIME AUGUSTUS FOLLOWERS, WE MUST COME TOGETHER TO GET THIS MAN HIS MONEY.
