    Jesus christ, that has to be one of the saddest boxing related photos I've ever seen.

    Wow that's my home town. I didn't know Agustus was living there. Hope he pulls through, I used to love his dancin' boxing technique.

    Are you on FB? Did you see that pic of your brother and me from Friday? Yes, Augustus was living here and actually training at a few gyms. I spoke with him not long ago.

    VERY Sad News...

    REED Actually Had the Pleasure of Hanging Out w/Augustus, Before & After his Bout w/Charles Hatley...Picked him Up from the Airport, Checked him into his Hotel, Showed him Around the City, the Following Day & Kicked it w/Him AFTER the Fight...

    VERY Cool, Unassuming Dude, Who was Completely UNAWARE of How Boxing Fans Felt about Him...When REED Picked him Up, Dude was Rocking a Wife Beater, Flip Flops (w/Toenails Looooooooooooong Enough to Make a Homeless Man Jealous) & about 2-3 Days Worth of Clothes in a Grocery Store Bag...

    REED is PROUD to Say he Smoked Weed w/Emmanuel Augustus AND Dude Paid for All the Beer REED Drank, After the Fight...Augustus Even Occasionally Called REED for about the Next Year Afterwards, just to Shoot the Shit, But then his # Got Disconnected....Words CANNOT Express Just How Fucking COOL it Was to See the Name "Emmanuel Augustus" Appear on the Caller ID, Ringing REED's Phone...

    Hatley-Augustus is REED's PROUDEST Moment as a Matchmaker, To Date...Held in a PACKED Minor League Baseball Stadium...Dallas Area Brothers Stood in Line for 20 Minutes or More (After the Fight), just to Get Pics &/or Autographs w/Augustus & as REED Noted Earlier, Emmanuel DIDN'T Understand Why...

    Finally, After a Blunt or 3, REED Broke it Down to Him; "You Know How White Folks Loooooooove Mickey Ward & Arturo Gatti? Well, You're OUR Mickey Ward or Arturo Gatti." He Understood WHAT REED was Saying at the Point, but Still Seemed OBLIVIOUS to the FACT he'd Registered w/Boxing Fans to THAT Degree, Which he Clearly Had...

    Hang in There, Emmanuel...GOD Bless You, Brother...

    You can maybe get away with that kind of shit if you're funny. You're not funny, though.

    Nah, I didn't. I tried to look for it but I'm not so Facebook savvy. I went home for a visit last August, I didn't know you and my brother were still kicking it. I'm still in the Air force stationed up in Japan, got 2 years left til retirement.

    I get that you're trying to make a point, but not even close bruh. There are much worse ways to die.

    Irish cracks on black guys all the time. At times, he sounds like a prick, but many times he gets away with it because he's actually witty.

    You're just a tard troll who tries far too hard to be amusing, and 99% of the time no one laughs or cares.

    Jokes are funny. You don't tell jokes. You attempt to.

    You're just a fuckin idiot.

    Getting this back on track, Emmanuel has had a lot of tough fights and now he's facing another one. I hope he can make it and enjoy a good life when he gets better.

    BOSS is not funny, but he's trying to be funny. He's joking. Irish, on the other hand, is actually racist. Also, not funny.
