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.

Augustus was robbed of legendary status by incompetent, bitter men who couldn't hear the music.

This man is a genius. He perfected the defense part of the game. When someone with a ferocious punch power studies this style and incorporates it into his style then we will have new 'greatest boxer of all time' era.....again.

It is unfortunate that some boxing authorities do not recognize his style.

It’s hard to make a mockery of the sport after seeing some of the decisions he lost. He was teaching lessons in a terribly corrupted sport that took enormous sums of money from him in favor of keeping a local fighters fragile record intact. It was a disgrace. You cannot respect what does not respect

"Whatever happened happened but imma have fun with it, I enjoy what I do" I love him so much, he was cheated so badly! boxing is the art he chose to Express himself and where he felt most free. Why should he pretend to be someone he isn't?

Never heard of him before but I instantly love his style, character and fighting spirit
