Thought Hall won last time think butler knicks this though age might just catch up with stuey think butlers youth will win him this fight I still think it's a very tough night for him though would love to see stuey get the win though going to be a good fight

I will be having a nibble on Hall via Points.
If it's close Hall gets robbed... which is what I think will happen.
Just had a look at Butlers resume. By the time of this fight it will have been two and a half years since the Tete fight.
In that time Butler has just faced Latino nobodies in his peak years. At least Hall has fought that Guerrero who was a similar level and Haskins who he arguably beat ( dreadful fight though).

Is that it looks like will happen to Burnett belt(mandatory aside)? Or does it look like he'll try unify against the hatton trained fighter?
In an ideal world it should be Burnett fighting Rodriguez then the butler hall winner
Whilst McDonnell fights solis then Zhakiyanov to clear up the WBA mess.
Then the do unification.
Cheers. Makes me head hurt trying to work out all these champions, super champs ect
That's an ideal scenario and as we know in boxing that never happens. Bantamweight will get very interesting in the next year. Inoue will be moving up possibly after his HBO debut in a couple of months.
I also fancy 24 year old Luis Nery to beat WBC and Ring magazine champion Yamanaka in a few weeks.
Then you have Tete who desperately needs a marquee fight.

I found Yamanaka and Uchiyama criminally ignored in boxing circles and P4P lists the last couple of years.
Age has caught up with one and like you say Yamanaka looks ripe for the taking now. Maybe Nery is the man to do it.
Looking forward to this one on Saturday, both guys don't seem to like each other so should make for a tasty scrap, I think it will be pretty much the same as their 1st fight, Butler showing the more eye catching shots with Hall setting the pace finding his range more as the fight goes on, I thought Hall nicked the 1st fight by a point but it was close
Butler's opposition since the loss to Tete has been woeful, he's had about 6 fights since then and they've come against poor opponents, Hall's definitely the biggest test since that loss, Stuey on the other hand has been in with Caballero and Haskins again in tough 12 rounders, Hall might be older but he's still fit as a fiddle and will make Butler did deep, ive always been a big fan of Butler he's one of the most talented fighters in the country IMO but he's lost a lot of momentum and his lack of a tough 12 round contest recently makes me go with Hall in this one, it'll be close again I reckon but I fancy Hall to nick it this time, his win over Guerrero is better than any of the wins Butler's had since the 1st fight
