Absolutely. That's why I asked about his stamina after the second round.

I could see 6-4 Hall or 5-5 even.
Close fight

Seems pretty close to me. Butler busier with flashier combinations but often blocked by Hall, Hall throwing less but landing more for me.

I think this fight has shown that Butler is too small for bantamweight really. He hasnt got the same pop up at this weight.

Yeah if he loses on points and goes back down he will be much better for it

He's fighting a massive bantam.

Butler really came alive in that 11th round.
It could be 6 rounds to 5 either way, and I wouldn't argue. This final round could be crucial.

Honestly doesnt look like he's got any pop at all at Bantam.

That is true but Hall is still probably the weakest out of the world champions at the weight.

Final round for Hall after Butler does nothing in the final minute.
Good fight

I think Butler has taken the last 2 rounds, and pulled it out in a close fight.
115-113 Butler!
If you had it 114-114 I wouldn't argue, but I think Butler just edged it out.

Very true. But whoever wins and has to face a mandatory is in serious sh*t.

Possibly the worst MC to have to read a decision.
Announces a majority decision then announces a split decision.
And takes 20 minutes between sentences.
