Battle of the journeyman! Augustus vs Forbes - +Fight is off+

I wanna see Augustus pulls out one last win, against a fighter with a winning record anyway.

Forbes doesn't have the power to keep Augustus off off him, but does have a solid chin.

:think

Augustus SD Forbes. In a very Augustus like akward fight :good

 

****!

Who do we root for?

Which one is the underdog???? :huh

These guys are likable for a lot of similar reasons (although their in-ring styles are almost a study in opposites).

 

Very valid points my man.

I just felt like going for Augustus, as he seems to be one of the most celebrated, successful, uh unsuccessful, journeyman of all time :yep

 

I don't want to see even one more Augustus fight. I'm a huge fan of The Drunken Master, but the last time I saw him he looked more shot than John Kennedy.

 

I'll take Forbes to win a decision.

 

Recent form is no help.

EA has fought much better opposition than the guy Forbes lost to but has been getting knocked down (and out) frequently.

Of course, Forbes isn't a KO artist - but if Augustus isn't able to avoid the punches he might just not be able to effectively compete anymore.

2lb also claims that he was robbed against Cuello.

:think

 

I WANT EA to win it, but my gut is trying to tell me Forbes will take a decision.

At this point, it think I'm gonna stay my pick of EA, strictly out of being biased.

Hey I like to consider myself one of the least biased people here, so I'll try it out for once :yep

 

Forbes is going to win but Im rooting for EA.

EA is beyond shot these days.

 

If it wasn't for a double kd against him in the 3rd of his last fight, EA would have upset another up and comer (then 13-0 Hatley) in September.

Who knows he might still have enough left to get a win.

 

Augustus is STILL fighting?

 

I'm hoping for a draw.

 

You know it. It's probably all he has.

Anyone know how much $ he got for scoring a place in FNR4?

 

You'd think there's royalties involved.

 

I agree fairly easy UD for Forbes. I however, like always am rooting for EA!!

 

Forbes is NOT a journeymen...He holded the IBF title for two fights...(against John Brown but still...:deal)And he holds a win over Cornelius Bundrage current IBF 154Lbs Champ and Francisco Bojado(albeit damaged version)And you can also count his two wins over David Santos who was a good contender...
