For sure Jess, it wasn't his fault. I don't like when people hold "he mostly fought bad, inexperienced boxers" against him. Truth is - that's what everyone does to progress onto the big fights! We just got to see the early stages of his career, where we normally wouldn't see it. The reason we saw his 'easy' fights early on is because the man was a spectacle.

You can't imagine the strength his arms and legs built up over the years that allowed him to crawl under and push himself up and over and get himself I'm and out of the tight spots it takes to do these jobs. Then to shed 115lbs through cardio training... it's almost like he was "on deck" for 10 years before swinging!!!

When Eric went pro you can see his dedication to the craft in his body. He is a large man, there’s no doubt about that, but you can see he put in all the effort to make a boxer out of his genetics. We’re more used to seeing guys like this in heavyweight mma divisions dragging down and laying on top of guys for 15 minutes at a time, or getting some sloppy one shot knockout more akin to his tough man matches. Butterbean, to me, is an icon of hard work and humbleness. He’s not going to go down in history like the old school greats, but he made a good life for himself and had a lot of fun along the way. If the phrase, “hometown hero” had a picture next to it in the dictionary, I’d have a hard time imagining seeing anyone but butterbean’s face on that paper

@@Ric_Vicious yea, and sometimes they try to clinch with him and realize far too late that even when you hug him tight you are still unable to get inside his crosses and hooks the way they should be able to against a thin opponent. Even if they get a good grip on him the shape and strength of his body gives him power and leverage to shrug them off so they can't just grab and hold and wait for the ref to save them.

One of the things that made Butter Bean a true Legend was not only his regular strength but the fact that he had exceptional strength in striking that a lot of ultra heavy weights don't have. There are very few fighters like ButterBean and they are all in the Hall of Fame of their sports.
