Fuck me!!!

Lords Gym it's crazy how somehow I know what the fuck! or who the fuck you talk about.....
Butler used to fight a lot out here in Los Angeles, I remember that name cause my uncle has a programme of when he wen't to see Rafael Ruelas fight if my memory serves me right (which isn't really working right now cause I' trying to remember that Orzbek guy) Ruelas fought Robert Rivera. Butlers name is on the programme though I think thats him Lionel Butler....
He was about 5"11 6"0 and 220 ish I would say . I really can't remember all the details on him , only that his record , and what I was getting in offensive production from the man, didn't add up ! hehe a few days into sparring I found his weakness was pressure. , Butler didn’t like being pressed and would give up first on the inside , thus allowing you to back him up.. on his heels he couldn’t get off, however when allowed to march forward he was a machine .
