Really, I thought he was in his forties lol.

I've been pretty impressed with Kim and Provodnikov. Drunken Master, while obviously at the end of the line, will be a good experience for Ruslan. Kim looks like the real deal as well, although why is he in a title eliminator for a belt that doesn't have a champion?

And I can already hear Teddy complaining about Demetrius Andrade fighting another can.

I just looked at Augustus' record, (38-31-6, 20 KOs) he has as many loses and draws as he does wins. He's still fun to watch though, he'll give that green Russian a run for his money.

I'd love to watch all his fights and count up the exact number of decisions he was robbed in

Yup, Augustus is a character, I don't believe he ever won a world title did he?

He never has, and he still has a documentary film crew following him around until he gets a shot or retires.

I have seen him get screwed 4 or 5 times jsut off the top of my head on FNF or PPV undercards

He was extremely game vs Mayweather Jr and FLoyd said it was his toughest fight

Augustus looks like an old man, I wouldn't doubt that Provodnikov stops him in one of the later rounds.

He looks terrible.

Augustus looked better that last round (3rd) but I can't see him keeping up with this young russian.

is he doing any drunken master stuff?

No. Too busy fighting this kid off. He's doing ok, though.

Not really bird, he's fighting fairly conventional right now, opps.. Augustus just got dropped by a right hand.

Thanks for the memories.

Augustus looks pretty beat up and tired, and his nose is broken, and the ref just waved it off after he got knocked down twice in the 9th round.

still love the man he applied alot of good memories

Up next Kim-Diaz

Bizarre move by the ref in the staredown.

Okay, that ref needs to be retired.

I was just thinking how well Diaz was doing when boom, Kim knocks him the fuck out.

Diaz had been KO'd 5-6 times before this, so I reckon it's no surprise,
