    Eddie Hearn has just tweeted saying he's won the purse bids for this fight. Who you got?

    Great fight. The draw? It's that close in my opinion.

    Hope it happens.

    i doubt this fight happens but got a sneaky feeling that butler might get a points win! he has been in the tougher fights and we dont know how easy it is for yafai to make the weight and be effective for 12 rounds. very interesting!!

    Agree be such a close fight, yafai having beaten butler in the ams you would have to favour but butler does seem more seasoned and 100% would do the 12. Great fight if it happens don't think it will though.

    Fight isn't going to happen. Butler is now saying he has never had any intention of defending his British title. Butler should have vacated long ago if this was his intentions.

    Butler is making out he hasn't agreed to it cause the moneys sh ite but Hearn has announced it for October 17th. Proper wazza fish eyes move from Eddie.

    Butler says he gets more than £32,400 for a ten rounder, either he's lying out his backside or frank is really desperate for him to stay (yet makes a ridiculously low purse bid for this fight)

    Don't think he would put money figures on twitter if they were lies. Hearn should get the wonga out if yafai really wants it.

    He's won the purse bid no need to offer more. Can do a quack quack impression as well

    Yafai and Hearn had a chance 18 months ago and turned the fight down. Butler has said bring a world title the table and the fight will happen. Fair enough.

    The fight was never going to happen 18 months ago. The facts are purse bid has been won so Butler has to fight or vacate, neither will bother Yafai.
