Emanuel Augustus = The True Peoples Champ! He kept it real after he know he got robbed! He was still hugging the other camp and shaking hands with the fans that were telling him we all know you won! Win or not Emanuel is a beast and always puts on a show!
Yeah we fought on the same amateur boxing team @ N.14th st in Baton Rouge Louisiana in 1992 he was always tough muthfucker I hate how the sport of boxing fuckin used him up then just throw him away like a dirty napken today he lives just a block away from my home with his girlfriend, he walks or jogs down our home-town main he does not have a car or home of his own he is totally broke & bankrupt. When I talk to him i see & heat nothing but regret ..... Just another sportsman tragic story.
@@tonrobert3391 your right the boxing analyst's. Say he was knwon as the gatekeeper for the upcoming boxers to fight taking fights two weeks notice and traveling all over the world he would get little purse and robbed always a class act and humble his landing percentage was always higher than his opponent he said on espn if he didn't knock his opponent out they would always score against him teddy was mad af
This, did indeed turn me away from boxing for a while, it still sticks in the throat to this day... Teddy Atlas spoke for all true boxing fans that night.
They screwed Augustus and he find't even fight with referees. In fact, these judges robbed this guy of a good boxing career. Then people wonder why fans don't watch.
Entire career and health robbed from bad judging. This is more terrible than it looks. When you put your heart and soul into your craft. VERY SKILLFUL BOXER!!!!!!!! AUGUSTUS RECOVER PLEASE!!!
He truly earned his stripes He should have multiple belts and titles, I feel the judges were most unfair with Emanuel Augustus then any other fighter with his caliber of skill
Emanuel Augustus had to fight Courtney Burton, the judges, the crowd, and the referee. Dude was a great boxer but got rob fight after fight on scorecards that hurt his career. Shame!
15:40 guarantee Burton’s corner is telling him to aim at his chest cause Augustus is slipping his punches. Augustus can hear them so he’s poking his chest out
Baton Rouge legend. Folks who knew him from 14th St. Boxing (his old stomping grounds) said before he would spar. He would crank up the radio & start boxing with the rhythm of the music
It's definitely largely rhythm based. He doesn't even really need to be able to see. Sometimes he'll take breaks just to dance with the opponent and get in sync with their movements. Then starts punching between their punches.
And after watching this .. now you know why Emanuel's record is not better. He got robbed.. AGAIN! Teddy is correct. This type of travesty in refereeing & judging is what disgusts fans. Kelly is a piss poor ref.
It’s funny because It’s always an ascending fighter whose supposed to use Augustus as a stepping stone. Augustus then totally outshines them, and still somehow loses.
He has a pretty good journey man record, what youve got to rememeber is that you only hear about those who have very few losses if any but the vast majoirty of Boxers have more losses than victories
At the beginning of the video im contemplating how Burton's prefight briefing about Augustus went: Trainer to Burton "Alright you gotta be careful, this guy likes to dance." Burton responds "Ok, and? I can dance lol, footwork ain't no problem" Trainer again: "No, you dont understand..... this guy likes to dance.... literally!" *shows video of Augustus destroying opponents whilst dancing*.... "This may be a problem" 😂😂
Koven Maitreya Dancing has a hypnotizing effect on the mind burton could land because when ever he figured out emmanuel's timing he switched it up sometimes orthodox other times southpaw you could never figure him out lol augustus was so ahead of his time it's hysterical mind you he never watched tape of this guy or even trained for him he fought off pure reflex and skill
Joe Tessitore and Teddy Atlas are one of the best commentators duo ever, all sports combined! That official must still do nightmare from that incounter hahah
The way this unfolded at the end was beautiful. It was awesome to see the commentators not just stand up on air for the fighter who should of won but actually face to face call out the officials on national television on camera for the world to see. If every corrupt judge and sanctioning body was called out and put on blast on the spot like this on national tv they would stop doing it from fear of being put on the spot immediately and embarrassed.
Honestly, I wish some high level fighters would get together and set this guy up for a nice retirement, just raise some funds and make sure he's got the basics covered. Hold a fundraiser, set up a trust, and a financial advisor, so he don't get fleeced.. Ward, Floyd, Atlas, even Roy Jones (whom he emulated from time to time), Agustus is hall of fame material.. But somebody start a go fund me for this man, I'd throw down a few bucks to get him on his feet and the recognition the man deserves..
That was a great performance from Augustus imo.. I personally had it 10-0 in rounds for Augustus, just my opinion.. Anyway, thank you for uploading the fight.
+Benswan187 yep, Burton is not a sissy indeed, he made a fight out of it, but it's very hard to give him more than 3 rounds. 99-90 Burton? LOL, It is corruption, no other way
Haha! A true tribute to a Real Man, a Real sportsman, a real Master with no ego, no malice, no shame, no loss of love for his brother. Truely his brothers keeper and a master of his game. i am impressed and inspired to improve mi game in mi life watching Emanuel play with this young man, from the checkered flag he implied and reinforced the young hopefulls dreams of greatness with a proportionate show of respect in a productive display of skill and vigor, incouraging a vibrant response and will to raise his own level, perhapse cut a little baby fat off while at the same time detorque, stop drop n roll, let himself go, just feel n flow. It's plane for all to see Emanual loves the game and wants nothing more than to inspire the very best, the most, the absolute maximum effort, intent, attention, perseption and will to perform, improve, expand and bend, persist and perservere, to be so committed to the game he shall go even until the very end! Emanuel knows himself well, but he knows his opponent also and i believe, at the end of the day, the whole of his intent is to show this, to grow this, to peel the skin off and reveal the steel that lies just benieth the surface of every really real warrior. Truely a master of His game. Beautiful to watch 😎
45:46...the fact that an “official boxing comissioner” is arguing with the commentators (and is wrong in his arguement), every major boxing body (WBA, IBF, etc) should NEVER have a fight in Michigan until they clean things up
They would get mad at Augustus because he was called in to lose. And he always had the audacity to actually win. But the judges or ref would steal it from him anyways.
This is the reason why boxing is cruel.. this guy deserves every credit.. dude you rob someone's dream.. this may not be that super fight but dude thus guy is amazing.. he won the fight.. i can't really imagine if the ref still sleeps calmly after this fight.. what a shame!!
@@Cooliefuse28 The man spent his evenings playing video games on a blow up mattress ..lol, don't think he ever trained in any martial art, which makes his shit even more crazy.. he lived among impoverished folks, and gave most of his money away helping them... he's recovered from that awful bullet, I've heard these days he's training young fighters, and being taken care of.(possibly Floyd or Ward kicked in ?), He needs induction to the hall of fame and get recognized.. !!!!
@@planegaper I never said he trained in any martial arts but he was the one that said he would try to incorporate moves that he seen from Tekken into his boxing. I agree that he should be inducted into the Hall of Fame.
He's so entertaining, and so good at boxing man.. (Emanuel); but man, it seems every other fight I watch with him in it is BS calls, and unfair judgment That ref should be fired
In retrospect Augusta should be considered for the boxing Hall of Fame, his record should not be an issue especially when they induct people into it that never even laced on a pair of gloves.
augustus got ROBBED here. I get people don't like the showboating but still, fair is fair and this poor bastard got screwed cause he beat burton fair and square and this is the type of shit that makes boxing look BAD. gives our sport a bad name. that ref was a disgrace. obviously he didn't like augustus but constant rabbit punches right in front of him and says nothing.about it. unbelievable!!
Teddy was right.We recently lost Emmanuel and that's too bad for us.He was a damned good fighter and according to FMJ,"the toughest fight he ever had" Teddy is right.When you see a boxer absolutely dismantle another boxer and watch that boxer lose because he's not a hometown favorite,you lose interest. Emmanuel got penalized because he was unorthodox,so what.If he follows the Marquis of Queensbury rules he isn't doing anything wrong.If he wants to dance and incorporate capoeira in his boxing style so be it. This was the worst robbery ever,worse than Pacquiao/Bradley 1 or Whittaker/Chavez
JOE BLOW Alot of these "judges" are old school and know boxing only one way they were too small minded to understand emmanuel's dancing and showboating was calculated , dancing has a hypnotic effect on the mind and it can distrupt your timing and along with the showboating can demoralize and / or anger your oppostion causing them to either mentally checkout or fight more aggressive leaving them open to counters ingenius really , Augustus was well ahead of his time with that drunken style and considering he NEVER fought amatuer or watched film it's remarkable he even had the career he had , taking fights on short notice sometimes sick or injured never held grudges or played politics , he's one of the greatest lightweights ever in my book but with proper training , managment and promotion he would of been recognized as one of greatest fighters ever if you can make floyd mayweather jr say " I never wanna see that guy again " your pretty fuckin good but the refs of the day didn't see it that way...
Denied greatness... . A forever black eye on my sport.......wow how the conversation would change if the judges had not robbed..... steal.....taken.......took.....lied.....cheat....... mobbed and punished this practitioner of the sweet science for making what was difficult seemed eazy..They denied this combatant a future where he could have prosper off his victory and able to set his family up for a sustainable future.....big up to this G.O.A.T...Emanuel Augustus... Punished for being great!!!!!
Emanuel Augustus should be where Mayweather is right now. Money isn't everything but the heart in Emanuel's fight, yes I said it backwards. His Heart had it's own fight, he put his soul into the ring by dancing his own tune. Without the showboating he is a great fighter, in my opinion much better than Floyd Mayweather Jr.
One of the best ever. Career ruined by jealous limited minded people who could not stand a man in the ring with uniques skills that even made Mickey Ward look like an amateur at times. One of the thousands of matches that shows what's wrong with boxing, Canelo vs GGG...etc...
I watched this fight when it originally aired and I still feel the same about the corruption in boxing… the deck was stacked against Augusta. I can’t believe the amount of rabbit punches thrown in front of the referee that was completely ignored.
how many times did augustus get robbed altogether ??? maybe his the most wronged boxer in boxing history.i hope he is well he was a great boxer & in so many great fights great post peace...
How can they get away with cheating like that ? That referee is a disgrace and shouldn't be a referee not even for a dog fight . Everyone knows who won that fight ?
I just read an article about Emmanuel Augustus in the Louisiana advocate talking about he got shot at the base of his skull no charges were ever rendered against the perpetrator and Augustus lost most of his memory and was living under a bridge. Sad story, boxing wasn't fair to him and life hasn't been fair to him either
Legends say the referee is still deducting Emanuel Augustus's points for not eating breakfast.
@Great Era...shows how much YOU know! That isn’t even true....he got a point deducted for not saying his grace before eating breakfast!
@@creoleDJ lmao
Legend has it he also got deducted a point for not making his bed the night before, and an additional two for hitting snooze and running down the stairs
I’d like the ref to swish two points slipping on a banana peel just outside a branch chipper.
@@creoleDJ 🤣🤣🤣🤣
The way the commentators reacted is exactly how I felt. Augustus knew he won. They knew he won. Everyone knew he won.
Burton body language too. He knew he'd been beat.
But the sweet thing about it is he did get a rematch with this guy and KO in the 8th!
#Legendary
@@tamaku2903 that’s not how politics work sadly especially in business
The reason boxing isn’t the most watched sport. It is full of trash like this ref.

This was a Masterful Display of how skilled Emanuel Augustus was...
35:38 to 36:03. Augustus talking to people in crowd while slipping punches. What a gangster.
Straight G.
God bless you , Emanuel
Thanks 😎
He truly earned his stripes He should have multiple belts and titles, I feel the judges were most unfair with Emanuel Augustus then any other fighter with his caliber of skill
The boxing authorities really hated on the style of Agustus. Man, he brought beauty to boxing.
His birthname is Burton, and when his parents married, he changed his name to Augustus (his father's name)
Nothing better than Teddy Atlas and Joe Tessitore going OFF at the end. "WHERE IS THE DRAW?!?"
Emanuel Augustus had to fight Courtney Burton, the judges, the crowd, and the referee. Dude was a great boxer but got rob fight after fight on scorecards that hurt his career. Shame!
this is embarrassing for boxing

Teddy had the greatest reaction to this decision ever. Im so glad he took those officials to school on live tv!
44:37 “he won this damn fight”
You hear even the hometown crowd booing the decision
Hating on that man style its a good style the ref should be ashamed of himself straight robbed

Why do we destroy beauty?
Thank you, Teddy for telling the truth. Atlas was the ghetto version of Howard Cosell.
