BoxRec says they're all fighting TBA.

It doesn't look like a very good show.

Shame. Massively improved fighter. Demolished Renda and systematically took Costello apart before stopping Conception and Ball in title defenses.

Love to see Butler get more opportunities and more fights. He's a throwback and one tough SOB - to go seven with Barker at only two days notice showed plenty balls. Hopefully he can get a British title shot at lightmiddleweight.

He's definitely got the balls. It seems he's developing the power and accruing the skills too now. Can't tell you how impressed I was with him against Costello. Patient and clinical. He's just a totally different fighter today. I also hope he gets the opportunity to push on and go for bigger titles and challenges.

Best of luck to him he looks a new fighter.

On a side note I saw that he was beaten in a PF by a guy called Brett Flournoy, I checked to see what happened to this undefeated fighter and turns out he was murdered in 2011 only a few miles from where I live. I remember the case now but did not realise it was a boxer!

Anyway the focus should be on Danny, best of luck to him!

I saw him in his 6th or 7th fight at Hatton Promotion's first ever show, about 8 year ago in Birmingham from memory.

He was decent but kind of took the wrong fights and seemed to hit a bad patch. Hope he has a second run at it and does ok.

He did well. Opposition was tough but limited.
