Can Butler actually do it?

[1lparm]

He seems confident and has only been stopped once at a lower weight he’s talking about having the best game plan or is he about to get stretched in quick fashion

[MusoMeanderings]

nope.

[BlackBenjamin]

Probably not

[Citizen Koba]

Theoretically possible I guess. This is boxing after all. There's always the outside chance Inoue suffers a freak injury or some ****.

[dan-b]

Unlikely. He's eight in the independent rankings and is only in this fight because of boxing's weird belt system.

[mlac]

do what? survive more than 2 rounds? i highly doubt it. might even be a 1 rounder.

[MusoMeanderings]

Make no mistake: Butler is getting absolutely annihilated here.

- - Butler is a brick company around these parts. Must be related to this Butler bricking it.

I won over one hundred quid on butler getting brutalised by tete so i will always have a soft spot for him but this is a mismatch, butler isn't good enough at world level.

This would be one of the biggest upsets in the lower weights history i would guess.

Butler will not win, but he's intelligent enough to last more rounds than expected.

Last year everybody was telling that Inoue would annihilate Thai Aran Dipaen in 20 seconds, yet the fight lasted until the 8th round. Moreover, today Inoue had some issue with making weight.

One never knows. It might be a very short night indeed, but I will not be surprised if Butler resists until the halfway mark or so.
