117-111?!

[Boxing Prospect]

The third judge and the ring announcer were both useless.

[ShadrachSimmo]

Fuckin senile gimp.

[gilgamesh]

How is that an MD??????

It's not

I don't know how a judge had it 117-111. It was much closer than that no matter who you had it for.

[expe]

117-111?!

Lot of close rounds in that fight, it's possible to have argued for 117-111 for Hall or Butler, very few of the rounds were won decisively.

[Autobarn]

so will someone make clear what the official result is?

[lefty]

Fuckin senile gimp.

[crusader]

so will someone make clear what the official result is?

Butler wins SD

[ShadrachSimmo]

Get rid of all these "old school" fuckhead MCs who don't understand boxing scores back to the bingo hall cos they're useless pricks.

[Autobarn]

so will someone make clear what the official result is?

Butler wins SD

cheers

[mickey1975]

I'm just a bit concerned how nick is going to cope?

[Andrew]

Hope not the end of Hall top man

[lefty]

Butler showed some class there offering the rematch.

[Andrew]

No f*cking about mandatory against Caballero next

[lefty]

Frank having a secret dig at Eddie there with the comments about building a fighter?

[handsofstone]

I had it 115-114 Hall, can't argue with the result though,I'm happy for Paul as he's a talented kid but I'm equally dissapoited for Stuart. That last judges score was pretty poor even if there were close rounds

[tobyh5]

Butler has showed his limited future through having a tough fight with Hall who is not world class.

Agree that the MC is awful but then everything to do with allegedly is old skool crap. Bunce, Lillies being buffoons who have no polish at all. It is painful to watch. Even at big events they bring in old fashioned, past it Rosenthal

[lefty]

Lol I dont mind Rosenthal myself.

[ShadrachSimmo]

Butler v ward anyone?

[jameswilson]

I'm just a bit concerned how nick is going to cope?

Writing up a dossier, as we speak, on how many shots Butler landed on gloves and making up a list of people who thought Hall won.

[Datsue]

No f*cking about mandatory against Caballero next

For any who have not seen the mandatory, here he is in his world title eliminator vs Oba Kohei:

Butler v ward anyone?

no how about world class fighters. This guy has a world title. There's been enough farce title fights with this belt.

[Boxing Prospect]

Bunce and Lillis talking about Butler going down to 115 to fight for the vacant title. How clueless are these idiots? The two fat gits haven't a clue, have they.

Yes it's vacant with a fight organised for it for next month between Zolani Tete and Teiru Kinoshita. An eliminator is also set to take place so I can't see Butler just getting a fight for that belt, even though he probably shouldn't have got this one either.

no how about world class fighters. This guy has a world title. There's been enough farce title fights with this belt.

Leading candidate for winner of the most devalued belt in boxing?

[expe]

Butler v ward anyone?

Can't see it personally, think Butler will go back down to super flyweight, or he'll fight Caballero at bantamweight. There's still plenty of fights out there for Hall, McDonnell again is an option and with Bradley Saunders looking a class act, I'd expect more shows on up in the North East. Another option for him is to move up to super bantam and chase Frampton and Quigg.
