    Decent fighter but the Butcher fight exposed him a bit. I think he should move up in weight.

    Was hoping to see Iain Butcher get the rematch after the last controversial result. Maybe a bigger rematch could be on the cards in future though.

    Butcher beat him IMO, both good fighters though.

    Yeah I had Butcher winning by a couple too.

    Satchell did well to get up when Butcher dropped him, but very few of his punches were landing in that fight. They've not given Butcher the rematch for a reason.

    I understand it... risk v reward and all that. He just deserved a rematch for the performance - hopefully he'll get a crack at the European if Satchell wins it.

    Though you would have been touting for a Butcher rematch Bill!

    Don't you rate him much?
