    Johnny Nelson also used to say Richard Towers was gonna do big things :lol::lol:

    yafai almost got knocked out by a journeyman in one of his most recent fights, and Andrew Selby beat him by about 20 points in the ams

    Yes both have got to establish themselves more but butler has been in with better open ants so far and I totally disagree with the speed skill and power theory of yours

    Yafai done nothing of note in the Pro ranks to be considered as better than Butler (who hasnt put a foot wrong) thus far.

    On a side note, I watched Butler and Hall spar around 12-18 months ago. I know sparring means little a lot of the time but he really gave it to Hall. Was a good spar to watch but i'm in no way surprised that Hall remains reluctant to fight him. He said 2 weeks ago that Butler can wait and when question post fight the other night was rambling about money. Think (personally) he knows the score :good

    True he doesn't want it because he knows butlers ability

    Im not saying he's necessarily scared but like you said I do think he knows how good Butler can potentially be, the sparring probably plays on his mind too.
