Lol, Butterbean. His BMI is 55.5. It's probably safe to say he's obese in this case.

No mate, the fact is that Butterbean is not exactly world class but go down to your local boxing gym and I am sure you will find a heavyweight with the ripped muscles but who wouldn't stand a chance against Butterbean. Butterbean can throw his punches damn well, not your average fat dude on the street.
Only a fool would underestimate him (or overestimate him!), it's probably how he wins some of his fights.

I used to do boxing.
I bet he couldn't matey. One of the coaches is a former pro.
He'd punch butterbeans lights out. End of.

Butterbean is in no fit state to match up to a proper conditioned boxer.

He relies on his weight and the fact that he can try and overwhelm his opponent's to do all the work.
That's not going to happen in a proper bout.

In those fight's those boxer's aren't exactly fighting smart are they. They don't even cover up and keep moving, let alone keep at least one hand by their jaw.

Yeah Butterbean is a one trick pony, body shots then bang knockout but he is entertaining to watch and after all why else do you watch boxing?
By the way, AJ, ever heard of Kimbo Slice?
Youtube him some time, his fights are hilarious.

I dont think Butterbean would stand much of a chance against a properly trained heavy/cruiser/light weight,as most of their weight is lean and powerful muscle mass,not lard.

I used to watch kimbos fights and again he's hyped up far too much,watch the sean gannon fight(who looks rather out of shape) an he eventually beats him.

If you're looking for a proper street fighter then look no further than Lenny McLean.

The fact is butterbean is a super heavy weight not a heavy weight so it doesn't really matter if a heavy weight or light weight would knock him out since he is not their weight. You access people from weight they are and how well they fight against their own weight (in boxing that is :)). Take Riki Hatton and flloyd Mayweather for example :wink:

Yeah it's quite funny to watch but if I have the choice, I'd much rather watch something else! 8)
Butterbean....... I like the fact that he can go out there and just fight anyone really but other than that...naaaaa.
Yeah I've seen his Kimbo's stuff. Most of it set-up by his 'managers' with strict rules, even in his bare knuckle stuff. Yeah his fight's are funny. I thought one of his funniest one's was when he fought that copper bloke (can't remember), that was funny, especially when he was out flat on his back with no energy left. That bit made me laugh. :D
