Default Butterbean

I have never seen butterbean do mma, however I have seen him box. Usually he beats down whoever he fights, however they are normally much smaller. His MMA career is listed as 10-4-1, with two losses coming from one oponnent who was 181# and 35-25-8 (so not a stud) and another loss coming from a 155# oponnent that is listed as 15-5-1. With butterbean listed as 350-390 depending where you get info from is his career a joke nowadays, or has he ever been taken as a serious contender? (I know he held a boxing super heavyweight belt, but after retiring then coming back and getting beat when trying to win it again it seems like nothing is serious with him now)

Yup he was an IBA champion, but IBA is a stepping stone. I don't think I've ever seen him fight anyone his own size. Google and wikipedia him.

I've seen him fight a couple times and his main downfall is his speed. Looking at his record, he beat James Thompson who is a pretty damn good fighter. He lost to Genki Sudo and Minowa who are two DAMN good fighters. I don't think Butterbean will be taking down any top 10 heavyweights, but he isn't as big a joke as it may seem.

Butterbean vs Genki Sudo:[ame=http://youtube.com/watch?v=QkT3wphWSrk]YouTube - Genki Sudo vs Butterbean[/ame]

EDIT: Just watched the Thompson fight, and he got robbed lol.

Well....to those whom feel he is a joke, why you don't you challenge him and try to earn a few dollars? He is no joke, and fought many tough man contests.....certainly gaining some knowledge while doing so. Same technique as Foreman: massive size weighing down oponnets, arms used like heavy clubs, not so fast.
