This type of match between McBride and Butterbean may enrage the boxing purists rather than excite.

Butterbean walked away from boxing for more than three years for a career in MMA and kickboxing. To be fair to him, he has always had his critics but has been active throughout the years in some sort of form of fighting. He was in boxing action last month but was stopped in round two by Kirk Lawton in Australia. Lawton takes his record in boxing to now 2 fight 2 win and 2 knock-outs at the ripe old age of 41.
