This should be a rough and tough fight if both fighters show up and fight. Ray Oliveira-170 vs Emanuel Augustus. I know Oliveira will come out fighting but Augustus who is a rough and sometimes dirty fighter who will use his head, elbows and hit behind the head at times many times you could say and also likes to hold on and tie up then slide a cheap head or hit on the break.
He is just a rough fighter and his style is to use the tactics I spoke of at times but hey if he can get away with it so be it, not like he is the only fighter to be like that.
Oliveira stood up very good IMO to R. Hatton he had both ear drums damaged and a cut on his eye, think it is the first time he has been cut in his 15 years as a pro fighter. The ears do not worry me the cut being a first hoped it healed good because a head or elbow could reopen it if tissue did not get tough enough sometimes the scar tissue stays soft and will open easy will see.
I took Oliveira- the 170. I look for this to be a very good fight like I said if both fighters come to fight, can't have a fight with 1 guy. That is why Ruiz even though he might win sucks to watch because he is a holder and his fights are not boxing he is a holder and dirty and rough inside and this is how Augustus can be at times other times he will just come out and brawl with out the holding, hoping for that fighter to show up if he does this should be a very good fight to watch and very close, I just think Oliveria has better ring skills. He held his own with Hatton when many of fighters would of quit after a busted up ear drum in the 2nd and his other ear went in the 5th or 6th I think.
Should be fun to watch as a fight fan and either way it will be a rough fight because that is how Augustus fights even if he is holding in the fight he will let head and elbows fly as long as he can get by with it, now the hitting behind the head they will catch or should and would not be shocked to see him lose a point in a round and if things are going south for him would not be shocked if he gets a dq depending on who is working the fight hope not want to see a tough clean let it all out fight.
Good Luck
