We've seen those talkers in Inoues past opponents but it turns out that ending up on being a disaster.I do agree that Butler shouldnt really be that talkative right now.
Trashtalks are like a natural reaction for a fighter who acts tough but are really afraid of their opponent, as they are trying to get into their opponents head, hoping he'd get distracted and lost his concentration.
Some other trash talks are deliberate, to gain media attention and sell the fight, but in this case, I don't think it needs to sell as Inoue is now a rising boxing superstar that everyone loves to see.
That's not true, I know a good trash talker but a very good boxer. I'm sure you know Mayweather, he loves to trash-talk his opponent but he retires as an undefeated boxer. In the case of Butler, it's sure different because his record or achievement in boxing is not at par on Inoue's achievement, so he makes himself looks like a clown.
Mayweather is very confident in trash-talking because he is 100% sure he will win the fight
. He had it all sorted out before the bell rings so when the fight doesn't end in a KO, he is sure he will win via decision. All he needs to do is to survive the fight if he can't KO the opponent and its a sure win.
In any case for this fight, Butler need not to trash talk in my opinion. He just need to bring his A game and show respect, but it doesn't mean that he is afraid of Inoue. Just maybe to motivate himself in this fight.
Just bring everything and try to defend the title that he is holding right now, no need to do the trash as fans are aiming to see Inoue inside the ring, they expecting a lot from him and looking forward not to be disappointed.
Ticket sales can be carried by Inoue, no offense with Butler's fans, but the majority are looking forward
for Inoue to win these fights, upset will be a surprising outcome if things favored Butler's side.
An upset is highly unlikely but unexpected things happen so we can't factor out the possibility of Butler winnings. With all these certainties and the confidence of viewers and spectators that Inoue will win the fight, my otherside wanted to see a different result which is the not expected by the majority of the member here. I wonder what would be our reactions if Inoue got KO'ed in the first round
.
