    Battle of the media personalities. 4 rounds. Fight will be at heavyweight (since the alternative is giving Butterbean multiple limb amputations.) Who wins?

    Is Floyd in Jake's corner?

    Butterbean by complete absolute murder, he'd be arrested after this killing.

    :lol:

    Butterbean is mostly in the past by now. Prime Butterbean certainly is, assuming that such an entity ever existed. Although Paul sadly isn't a past fighter yet, we have our fair share of modern vs older threads.

    Is this a joke?

    Butterbean can actually fight, hits hard, and has a good chin. Paul leaves on a stretcher while Bean heads to the buffet.

    Not a joke, but your prediction more or less squares with mine.

    That said, I do wonder whether Butterbean will benefit here from the "He's not so bad in retrospect" effect that Classic fighters often do. Whereas Paul is being annoying as we speak.

    I think it's pretty 50:50.

    This thread is way more conventional than Ali converting to Scientology.

    That said, if the mods tell me that Paul vs (prime) Butterbean violates Classic's guidelines for inclusion, I'd be happy to see it moved.

    Maybe I just don't take to quirky posts?

    Butter bean could come out of retirement today with no training camp on a 24 hour notice and I'd favor him to KO the YouTuber more often than not.
