Known for his off-the-wall antics in the ring as much as his action-packed fights, Augustus was voted ESPN's most memorable fighter of the decade in 2008. This was thanks in part to his grueling 10-round war with "Irish" Micky Ward on ESPN's Friday Night Fights, which became 2001's Fight of the Year. Augustus was admired for his showmanship, world-class skill, and an old-school 'fight anyone, anytime' attitude. He left the sport with a misleading win-loss record after enduring one of the toughest schedules in the modern era, in which he fought a stready stream of contenders, champions, and undefeated prospects all the way up to his official retirement in 2011. Follow his journey as every available Augustus bout is highlighted within, with extra attention given to his most notable fights. Dedicated to the man himself, Emanuel Ya'kov Augustus. - Gor Man Productions
