Why did Tyson and co duck Butterbean?

[Rick Taylor]

I meant provocative.

I am just telling the truth.

Here are a few answers to the same question, some of them interesting:

I tend to agree with the theory according to which fighting Butterbean was a "no win" proposition for the names you mention. Had they knocked him out, they would have been derided for having wasted their time with a circus act of sorts, iconic figure or not, big money or not.

Had one of them lost, heaven forbid...

This is a nonsensical statement to make.

Seems anyone and everyone is just making poor excuses for the duck.

So they were afraid of Beans punching power

But... your answer is? The last thing you wrote?

Then again, I can't remember anyone at that time thinking that they "ducked" Butterbean. It's just that those fights were never seriously discussed.

You said it, not me.

Read back your own reply and look at the flimsy logic.

Just trying to follow YOUR logic. This is not a guessing game, you ask a question but do not express an opinion, except that those three ducked Butterbean.

I'm curious to know what you think the outcome would have been.

My logic tells that all of them would have no problem with the guy, but shìt happens of course...

I wonder whether to stick or delete this thread lmao.

My opinion is that everyone involved would have made and insane amount of money.

Look at nonsense under a microscope, and you'll find the germs of serious fun

Sticky it at the top Bat.

Why would you delete it? You can't deny my research/facts/figures are top notch.
