Why did Tyson and co duck Butterbean?

[Anthony342]

oh jeez.... you are a turd of a poster LMAO

That's why he was banned for a long time. And most likely will be again at some point.

oh jeez.... you are a turd of a poster LMAO

Typical emotional response from an effeminate Tyson fanboy. 😆

I'm talking fact and figures and you are just crying and yelping like a hysterical woman.

20,000 fans saw Bean ko Bart Gunn at the First Union Center in Philadelphia in March 1999. And lets not forget 800,000 PPV buys.

Bean was even on the box art of a Sega video game back in 95.
As well as being the final boss. He was also in several of the old EA boxing games.

His Iconic ko win against Jackass has also been viewed by millions of people. Despite all you haters.

The average person on the street is more likely to recognise a photo of a prime Bean than they are a photo of a prime Lennox Louis.

Louis is literally only known to the general public as the guy who beat up an old Mike Tyson.

Butterbean was a 4 round fighter who never earned the right to fight anyone approaching contender status. He didn't earn the right to be in any conversation with tyson, evander, lewis et al.

But Peter Mcneely did "earn" the right to fight Tyson? lmao 🤣

You know Bean ko Mcneely in 1 round right?

That's why he was banned for a long time. And most likely will be again at some point.

Yet more effeminate yelping. Stop being a boxing hipster.

Butterbean is a pop culture icon from that era who transcended boxing. Prove me wrong.

Y'all may have gone too thick this time

Because they feared whatever fame or money it brought them would be counteracted by the irreparable damage done to their name and career as a respectable pro. I guess in the hindsight we have now, having seen Mayweather fight MacGreggor, and the popularity of Jake Paul; we recognize that gimmicky freak show fights dont hurt a reputation so much. Back then, fighters wouldnt want to diminish their legacy.

Regardless, its foolish to attach the word ‘duck’ to it, as the connotation evokes them fearing a loss to the opponent. There are literally thousands of club level fighters they didnt fight against back then either- but they didnt duck those opponents, they simply were to worthy. This falls into a similar category

Please point out even one thing I said that is incorrect.
I'll wait.

LMAO 😂

You make it sound like the average person cared about any of this. The commission wouldn't care either because they get a cut.

All three fought guys worse than Bean and you know it.

******est..... thread..... EVER !!

He's right you know......

Butterbean turned pro in 1994, Jack Sharkey and Jersey Joe Walcott died in 1994. Very convenient. The old "I'm dead so I can't fight Butterbean" excuse.

How do you explain that????
