Butterbean's making a comeback

Super Six of Early Dementia:
Evander Holyfield
Butterbean
Monte Barrett
Oliver McCall
Francois Botha
James Toney

Barret-Toney final?

 

scary part he could actually make it to top 15 today

 

WHAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT:huh

Butterbean, Botha, McCall........?:nono

Those three have no ill effects from boxing. Listen to them talk, watch their reactions in the ring. None show signs of being punch drunk, although all but Barrett are probably too old to be competing at a high level.

Somehow though I think Holy and Toney will find their way into the big fights!

 

Uh, how?

He could barely beat guys like McNeely and 50 y/o Holmes in his prime. He's not gonna beat a top 100 much less a top 15.

His best bet is to fight 4rdrs against undefeated fighters with more than 10 wins. Show us if these hypejobs have a chin and a defense.

Same goes for Fergusen!:deal

 

Super HW division...He beats everyone over 310lbs though

 

:verysad why you ruin all the fun

 

I think the Bean or Slice could carve up Fury or Boystov right fukking now, but as soon as they fought an Arreola or even a Quezada or Sprott they'd get dealt with.

I would love to see those hypejobs inside the top 20 exposed, but instead they'll continue fighting unproven pretenders like themselves and C class fighters like Firtha.

 

nice lets see what he can do

 

This is exactly what I thought when I saw the thread. It has to happen.

 

Butterbean has already knocked this bum out once. That was his only loss.

Eric Scott Esch (born August 3, 1966) is an American heavyweight boxer, kickboxer, Profesional Wrestler, and mixed martial artist commonly referred to as Butterbean.[2]

He is the former IBA Super-Heavyweight Champion and also held the WAA Heavyweight title.[3] His combined professional fight record currently stands at 97 wins with 67 knockouts, 20 losses and 5 draws. Butterbean currently resides in Jasper, Alabama where he owns a restaurant, Mr Bean BBQ.[4]

 

He should fight that glass jawed joke Kimbo Slice. I bet even an old Bean knocks that fraud out.

 

Sometimes late at night on ESPN 2 they still show the old classic 4 round Butterbean fights...

 

Butterbean is better at higher weights. He's stronger.

I don't think there's any heavyweight champion that could handle a 500 lb Butterbean. How could Vitali beat someone twice his size?
