the article is being very kind to Butler I think....

5 ( +6 / -1 )

Inoue won, yet again. Butler after talking so very bravely - pre-fight - that he wasn’t scared of Inoue, spent the whole fight backpedaling with his guard up. Famous last words.

4 ( +5 / -1 )

The fight was soooooo one sided. I knew Inoue would win but with how Butler ran his mouth off leading up to the fight, I thought we would at least put some effort into a show of trying to win. Alas, no effort at all…

All efforts was purely to just hang on…

made for a boring fight to watch

3 ( +5 / -2 )

The body blow in the 11th mortally wounded Butler, gawd that was an awful hit.

It seems the person who barks loudly before a fight always loses to the one who is silent and apparently confident. Great job Inoue. I was rooting for Butler, but I was proven wrong on my choice. Give credit where credit is due.

You have to be tough to wear four belts like that.
