    butler is one of my favourite domestic boxers...superb boxer. Bags of talent. He tends to be a bit small and frail looking physically though. That does worry me...can he beat Rodriguez?

    I for one will be cheering like mad for Paul. One of my favourites.

    Being that much overweight means you didn't care about the title. They would of known 7 days ago that he wouldn't make the weight and they clearly don't care.

    Shambolic!!!

    Agree the same happened with Liam Smith when they retire and look back and think I could of been 2 times world champion if I didn’t listen to Gallagher

    I am 47 years old. I work all day. I still train and run like a lunatic as and when I can fit it in . I am always within 2lbs off the same weight. There is absolutely no excuse for a professional sportsman to be anything other than tip top unless injured or resting . I am sure there are many amongst this forum who do the same. OK some of you are bodybuilder types so i guess that you are increasing size/weight etc but that also takes time and dedication mixed with full time work /education. By being over 3lbs over butler and his team are basically saying that they cannot physically get down to the weight If this is the case then move up or f off. 3oz is a slight oversight but 3lbs is disrespectful to everyone
