Two day notice. Got the call at 3pm yesterday and left to Vegas.

quote:

Jesse Butler is an absolute savage for accepting his debut fight on a main card on just 24 hours notice. This bout will most likely be at a catchweight to save both fighters from any unnecessary weight loss.

This benefits Butler as his last fight was just in February of this year. He's a champion over at Fury FC and fights a lot like a younger version of his opponent. Butler is eager to step to the center of the cage and swing with all his force. He has a solid chin and will be a tough opponent for Miller to put out – perhaps tougher than his original opponent.

It's cool that Jake got to write that Ouachita Citizen article. He loves talking about UFC fighting. Will be pulling for this young man from NELA.

Laura Sankey is the Beth Mowens of UFC. Pure misery listening to her chime in.

I hate how they're forcing a female announcer -- shes terrible. Bring back Felder
