that 1 inch advantage is nothing if we will compare to what are the advantages of Inoue against Butler .
from the stamina and experiences ? and from whom He defeated ? I'm sure that inch means nothing to this Monster from japan , he is not afraid of anyone and he had proven that from defeating one of the toughest in that division Nonito Donaire so there is no one can hinder Him from taking another momentum .since this is a professional fight and have certain weight division, of course the height difference wouldn't really big. I'd say reach is an advantage since boxer with longer hand will easier to hit his opponent than the boxer with short hand.
In general height is nothing in boxing,
Indeed height is nothing but the reach is. It's that it is normal for a taller fighter to have a longer reach (though there are cases where the shorter fighter has a built with an extra ordinary wider wing span and long reach) just like in this case, though Inoue is shorter, he has a longer reach at 171 cm than Butler's 165 cm.
But no all short hand boxer is weak or can't compete with a boxer with long hand, Lomachenko already prove this.
I think it depends on the fighting style of the boxer. Loma is used to being the one with a shorter range so he adopts a fighting style that will take advantage of his reach.
Yep, I think Inoue would been underestimate Butler until the fight happen, even Inoue isn't serious to train his body, I still think Butler has no chance to beat Inoue.
Lol, a conditioned fighter can easily beat the unconditioned one no matter how skillful the boxer is if the fight goes a distance. Since the player isn't fully conditioned, it will affect his stamina and strength. He might retain the skills but his stamina and strength won't be at 100% and that will affect the fight greatly.
