William Joppy is the kinda guy you fight BEFORE you have a title, not after.

Disappointing when there are so many good names in the SMW division.

i had never seen Joppy fight untill he fought Trinidad so its hard for me to see him as a competitive fighter. Wish Bute/Kessler was in the works.

I can't see bute beating any current SMW belt holder.

He is powerful. But way to slow.
