    Was thinking about this match up before, if Satchell moved up to super flyweight would he be able to beat Butler and take his title?

    Good little local derby scrap
    Very tight IMO but would rather wait a few more years for it to happen , butler on points for me

    I don't think so personally.

    Could see it happening though in a year or so's time.

    Neither division is particularly stacked domestically.

    Butler IMO.

    Satchell looks good, big at the weight but i think Butler's got that touch of class and power which would see him take it.

    I personally think its an interesting fight, Satchell has beat very good fighters in his last 3 fights. Butler also has looked very impressive, I think it would go to points but am finding it difficult to pick.

    Really gd shout this both fighters seem to be rapidly improving with each fight. I think Kevin could do it hes big at the weight and might be more comfortable at superfly, and if he could apply the pressure in a similar way to the chris edwards fight I think hed have a gd chance.

    Satchells a good fighter but butler beats him maybe even stops him late! Paul is going to be very very good IMO

    Is he ****, most thought he lost to Sexton who is shite, fair enough Sexton had a big weight advantage and it played a part but if he was the class act you think he would have tore him apart.

    Very close fight to call, both have a fair bit of talent and will certainly campaign at Euro level.

    I'd go with Satchell at the minute, the kid is improving nicely and is on a bit of a roll.

    Did they? I remember most on here having Butler winning, and commending the judges for scoring it for Butlers better work?

    Good fight down the line but I think as Butler continues to improve it will take a special domestic fighter to beat him.

    I thought Butler beat Sexton, not by six rounds or anything daft but it was pretty clear to me who the better fighter was.

    Considering Sexton out-weighed him by a significant % it's a good win for the lad.

    It's a shame Sexton seems to have become a lazy bum, granted the KO of Uzzy flattered him a little but he should be doing better than what he has been.
