The Drunken Master Was Real - Legend Of Emanuel Augustus

Emanuel Augustus is recognized by many as the greatest boxer to never be known... Why? Because, through decision after decision, he was robbed of victory over and over again... The boxing panel simply did not like him. His style was outlandish, he would dance, taunt and mock his opponents but still, like a phantom come out of their hail unfazed... Truly A tragedy... If only his hands had the power to match his skill, then at least he could take justice into his own hands... Unfortunately, the man had no choice but to receive lashes from a world that simply did not understand him. Thank you for joining me as we take a closer glance.

[@dominiccampbell181]

@fisticuffszzzz Honestly, looking at Floyd later in his career, you can see he picked up some stuff from this fight. @ the other three For the record, all three of you sound ridiculous.

[@LostBoysBasketball]

Dominic Campbell thanks for being the only logical one in this thread, I always loved Augustus because his style depended on his opponent’s. Again, an Ironman. Floyd said himself, EA’s record was never a representation of how skilled he truly was.

[@dominiccampbell181]

@sacr3d g6om9try It's not ego. Extinction Ritual made a stupid comment. ECC made some assumptions that had no real basis in fact. Finally, while your previous post did make some interesting points, it was done in what amounts to a run-on tirade that's just barely coherent. Anyone reading it will find it hard to take you seriously, despite the points you made. Even if it wasn't your intention, by addressing two comments that deserved absolutely no attention, you did come off as a bit of an SJW. The fact that you immediately took offense to what I said and replied, rather than take a moment to consider why I said what I did, it didn't help your situation.

[@dominiccampbell181]

​@@LostBoysBasketball I think the best part about his style was that it was so fluid. As you said, it was entirely dependent upon his opponent, so it was difficult to plan for him, even after watching film on him.

[@oln3678]

I think the drunken master style is not so much to throw the opponent off, but to instead tap into the subconscious and bypass the conscious over analytical thinking mind

He wasn't just taunting his opponents. He wasn't an arrogant man. He was creating rhythms, waiting for his opponent to predict those rhythms, and then completely breaking the rhythm in a sudden burst of pain. Augustus was robbed of legendary status by incompetent, bitter men who couldn't hear the music.

I'm honestly surprised that Emanuel Augustus keeps getting compared to Drunken Kung Fu, when what he's doing is much, much closer to Capoeira. Only without the kicks. Both are based in dance, both work to lower the opponent's guard, both strike from unusual and unexpected angles, and both are quite effective when done properly. Here's a good video for reference: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fH-ZeYJsop6Cg8k
