    I saw this one live (on TV) like 6-7 years ago I think it was. Crazy. Apparently Butler is now in Jail for murder.

    To add to the background, I'm pretty sure that fight happened at a benefit for cops and firefighters after 9/11 which is the perfect time to assault a guy with your bare fists.

    If there's any irony to come out of Butler's career, it's that he took his nickname way more seriously out of the ring than in it. A guy nicknamed the Harlem Hammer wasn't a great puncher but actually killed a guy with a hammer later on? I'm sure there's an episode of Tales from the Crypt begging to be written about that one.

    Yeah Iremember it.Since the fight was over Butler was charged for this and did 3 years time.Cameback had a short comeback and in '04 murdered Sam Kellerman,brother of Max for which he is serving 29 years.

    Needles to say James Butler wasn't a class act.

    I remember hearing about this and seeing clips of it. Butler truly is a classless person and needs incarceration to protect the rest of society from him. It's just a shame that Kellerman's brother paid the ultimate price for this low life's major malfunctions. This is proof positive that not everyone who steps into a boxing ring are honorable, classy, or courageous. Butler is cowardly scum who never bettered himself by being a boxer. He's the pathetic excuse for a human being who sucker punches his victorious opponents after the fight and murders someone in cold blood with a hammer in exchange for their generosity(Kellerman's brother let Butler stay with him to help get him on his feet)
