Not Sure if this is ACCURATE or Not, but Augustus Says that Vester's Father was the Promoter of the Show, that he was FORCED Into Wearing 10 oz Gloves (For the 1st & ONLY Time in his Career), while Vester Fought in 8 oz Gloves & that his Ability to STOP Vester was Nullified as a Result... So Even AFTER Winning Virtually Every Round, Augustus Says he KNEW he'd Get Robbed, so he TOOK A DIVE TO MAKE VESTER & THE ENTIRE PROMOTION LOOK BAD.... REED:dunno:
Fraudor's resume looks like he has a boxing matchmaker. :giggle: Which says a lot considering frauds like Hatley are getting dropped by undersized, shot light hitters. Kinda like how Fraudor was nearly kimurad by a fat, out of shape kickboxer with a > .500 MMA record. Or how he takes on old ass blown up Middleweights despite being a natural 35lbs heavier. ::
Glad he got the work in REED. A young fighter will learn a lot from a tough fight like that. All the gym work is all good and well, but there is nothing more beneficial to a prospect than a brawl with a wily veteran.
Riiiiight.... So While the REST of the Mixed Martial Arts World (Fighters, Promoters, Fans, etc.) BOWED @ Fedor's Feet, YOU were the 1 Guy that "Really" Knew the Scoop, Huh???:shit:...Since U've ALREADY Got EVERYTHING Figured Out @ 15 Years of Age, REED has to Wonder WHY U Even Waste your Time Posting on Messageboards???... Oh, that's Right, it's Because U CRAVE Attention like a BROKE Stripper the Day Before her Rent is Due.... The FUNNY Thing about Hatley is, You're Taking an ABSOLUTE Stance on a Fight U HAVEN'T EVEN SEEN, which Makes it OBVIOUS that your ONLY Objective is to have REED Acknowledge your PITIFUL Existence.... REED:laugh11:
Or maybe I'm just stating the obvious. Hmm.. Funny, I'm not the only one thinking it, just the only one to put it so bluntly. opcorn:
By YOUR Middle School Rationale, Billy Conn, Henry Armstrong & Bernard Hopkins Should've just Folded Up the Tent & QUIT, Rather than Continue their Careers, After Losing their PRO DEBUTS... Hell, Conn & Armstrong were even KO'ed in theirs.... But Yeah, Keep "Stating the Obvious", Homegirl.... REED::
Seriously Reed, this clown is a waste of time. His arguments are always riddled with inconsistencies and founded on complete bias. He is continuously trumped by almost every poster in this forum who calls him out on his bullshit. Reminds me of the drunk guy in the corner of the bar who proceeds to heckle everyone in the place because he has no game. Don't waste your energy on him. Unlike him, you have better things to use it for.
So no fighter in the world has ever been dropped by someone smaller then them. You are absolutely correct this is a red flag. Get the fuck outta here idiot! I'll Holla 5000

Well to be fair.... it is a red flag. No prospect has any business being dropped by a feather fisted lightweight like Augustus. Hately aint gonna do too well when he faces a guy with pop.
Knock his Punch Resistance if U Like, but CREDIT the Guy for his RECOVERY & RESPONSE @ the Same Time...No, Augustus ISN'T a "Puncher" by Any Stretch, but 20 KO's in 38 Wins Is a Bit BETTER than "Feather Fisted", in REED's Opinion... Hatley Got Caught Being OVERLY Aggressive w/a BEAUTIFULLY TIMED Overhand Right...He was UP by the Count of 3 or 4 & Dropped Augustus TWICE HIMSELF in the Following Round... REED:hammert:
:atu: What a picture! A man with an uneven ass beard and some gay ass hoop earrings, smiling while holding another man's hand. :laughing:
Wasn't serious and just a satire of the typical bandwagoner response in such a case but thx for not accusing me of being a troll or on your nuts, too. :Thumbs:
Now these 2 guys aint on an even playing field. But early in Andre Wards career he was dropped by a bum early in his career I believe on the undercard of PBF/Mitchell in Portland Oregon but now look he's recognized as the best 168lber. So Hatley being dropped early in his career don't mean shit. What is impressive is how he responded when he faced adversity. That's the most important thing he prolly learned on Saturday that he didn't know about himself. What's gonna happen when things don't go ur way for a round. What happens when someone catches and does knock you down. How are you gonna be? Are you gonna go in a shell or are you gonna bite down and try and get urs back. And it appears with him getting 2 knockdowns he not only got his back but then 1 uped his opponent. See this was actually a great fight. Alot of prospects just blow right through their early competition and then when they fight a tough fight they don't have anything to fall back on. In my opinion there is no reason for concern. I'll Holla 5000
I said it once and I'll say it again. Augustus has no business being in the ring. He was done year ago and will probably wind up like Ali, Emille Griffth or worse. Cupey
