Tim Bradley is spot on in his commentary.

The 12 round decision loss will look good on Butler’s record but will do nothing for his career or reputation if anyone watches the fight.

Utterly boring.

At last

Inoue comes out firing hard and fast in 11. KO’s Butler with a body shot

Feel bad for saying it but glad he got stopped

Butler came so close to getting the 120-108 loss he came for.

Butler tried. Inoue flat but still got him out of there and won every round.

Ditto

Think Butler would have quietly settled for that beforehand.
11 rounds with this guy is something to be proud of.

He tried to survive not to win

Buttler was crazy negative. mabey threw 5 punches with any venom behind them the entire fight. and even them wernt bombs.

I guess it looks better on the record going late, but this preformance isnt going to do his carrer any favors, and you just lose slower. gotta mix in a propppper bomb now and then if your going for the negative run and cover stratergy. at least be a punchers chance.

went plenty of rounds, but whats the point if your not trying to win even a little bit.

Yeah, not sure what else he was supposed to do.
Hopelessly outclassed, not even a realistic punchers chance.

It became dull but I guess the paying crowd got their monies worth rather than a 1 round blowout

moving up is cool, but i really wish estrada or choc would move up and fight inoue at bantum for all the belts. 2 epics right there.

There are good fights at 122, but no legendary names like those 115 lads.

I wouldn’t mind a couple of rounds with the two girls either side of Inoue

I won’t last 11, that’s for sure

Cue Joe Gallagher saying Butler gave him one of his toughest fights.

Wasn't even a good finish.

Dull fight, Butler didn't try hard enough to win.
Can't blame him I spose. He needs a winnable Euro Title @ home then retire imo.
He's been to the mountaintop and got sever altitude sickness.
Nothing left for him to prove, good career etc.

Dull fight tonight, but it was because The Monster is so amazing.
A quality Euro level Butler way inferior in every dept, so fights gunshy and looking only to go the distance.
Inoue still got him in the end.

I’m not sure it was worth infecting my laptop with the dodgy stream I was watching. I had to keep refreshing it to get rid of all the shite that kept popping up. Ironically, I didn’t see the finish.

First Bantamweight undisputed champion in over 50 years.

Butter seems to have done more harm than good to his career judging by the Twitter response, Sunny Edwards leading the way.

Sunny’s just been a gobshite as usual. He dislikes Butler because he had a row with his dad.

There’s literally nothing Butler can do to win an Inoue fight other than a freak injury or collapse due to not making the weight properly.
