    My bad for not being specific.

    No chance he will be a four weight world champion, good wee fighter nothing special, struggled v hall in a generous decision, and Hall with the greatest of respect aint a top fighter regardless that he had a world belt for a few months

    Have a better chance dropping again to fly weight if he did that would defo be a 3 weight world champ which is unreal even in the smaller weight classes. He made his debut at fly and said he could still make it. Also has sparred with Quigg.

    Totally agree with this, although butler technically is a great boxer he really did struggle with hall can't see him moving through the weights ! I'd still pay to see him though!

    Hall had 10lbs of weight on him, that's a big difference in the lower weights, huge advantage. Tete will also look bigger, he will dwarf butler so let's see........

    This difference in weight & size cannot be under appreciated - down at those weights it makes all the difference - fair play to Butler for neutralising the threat & getting the win tbh.

    Tete is very dangerous, and at those odds is worth a bet to defeat the Brit.

    I think tete odds are ridiculous could be worth a bet on him.

    I will be putting a tenner on the tete KO, can't find any odds on method of win yet though.
