Emanuel Augustus, previously known as Emanuel Ya\'kov Burton, is an American professional boxer. He fights out of Brownsville, Texas.

He achieved a measure of fame after his bout against Courtney Burton on July 6, 2004, which he lost by an extremely controversial decision. The state of Michigan investigated the verdict but did not overturn it. Augustus avenged that loss September 1, 2006, when he stopped Burton in the 8th round on ESPN with the help of a left hook to the body.
