Its funny how there's so much racism on youtube... and it comes from sad people who have accomplished nothing and are scared of their failures... smh.... way to grow up guys.. how about going to college
Dude is a psychopathic scumbag.He killed Max Kellerman's brother Sam with a hammer and burned his place to cover it up.This is a sucker punch...not Mayweather. This guy shoulda been arrested after this fight.
What a piece of shit. Wasn't this boxing match for charity or something? Asshole murderer. RIP to Sam Kellerman(think that's his name). Bob Papa is the shit
@HyperColours - Agreed, but you mixed the boxers up. Grant was the one who got punched, Butler was the jerk who threw the sucker punch.
@HeWhoWaitsInDarkness - He actually was arrested for assault. Later, in an unrelated incident, he killed a guy with a hammer and burned the body. He's currently in prison.
@razordu30 James Butler had been friends with commentator Max Kellermans brother Sam Kellerman for ten years before beating him to death with that hammer. Watch your friends, not your enemies.
damn Grant never saw it coming. dude was actually about to hug him & tell him good fight if you watch the slow motion at 0:21 to 0:22 you can see Grant go to put his right arm over his back to hug him.
I remember watching this and thinking that was so fucked up! What a sorry person Grant was for throwing a wank shot after the fight! Anybody that has boxed knows how honestly bad that was.
Notwithstanding the tragedy of it, In a way the people who say that Sam was stupid for letting Butler into his house are right. I sure wouldn't have, after having seen this vid.
I mean let's face it: This guy was NOT his family.
why do white people always turn into certified paralegals when shit goes down, suddenly they know all the laws..."thats assault, thats assault, he should be arrested" lmao
The victim was Black..and he was just going in for a bro hug after a fight to show respect. So why is that being ignored? Butler is a dumb ass thug and that's that. Dumb asses come in all shapes, sizes and colors ppl.
@maxiprom Hell no, I'm not surprised. I remember watching this fight when it originally aired. I was PISSED! There was no cause for what Butler did. He got his ass beat. He should have left well enough alone, but NOOOOOO. He had to sucker punch the man. Then he went and killed Sam Kellerman. I hope he gets beat down every day when he wakes up in prison and beat down some more before lights out. He isn't coming out of the pen any time soon.
AWW EVERYONE SHUT UP you train humans to fight like dogs, then expect them to have rules? its assault? white wrestlers, do that all the time, and white hockey players nothing happens when they punch eachothers lights out with bare hands HYPOCRITES
@lordnemo19 You do know the best hockey fighter in the world is black right? He is also very popular so dont make this a black and white thing. Its almost always a mutual agreement to fight in hockey, this was a straight sucker punch. Todd Bertuzzi sucker punched some one in a hockey game and he was charged with assault and ripped apart by everyone. If you cant see why this is worse then a mutual fight in hockey then your fucked
Unrelated to 237-78-6497 or long distance calls to HAMpTON Roads VA: RICHARD GRANT first beat JAMES BUTLER on 1/31/97 (an outrageous transgression was just underway) or 1,757 days before winning this sucker punch fight on 11/23/01. The Piedmont Triad of NC is reflected in Grant’s first professional opponent, WINSTON-SutHERland, on 5/25/96. Unrelated to history teachers in GARYsBURG, nortHAMpTON County, NC: Richard GRANT lost his 8th pro fight to Eric HARDING on Butler’s 25th birthday: 12/18/97
Butler was a disgraxe to sports. He should have been in a mental institution instead of thing ring. Sad he ended up killing Kellerman's brother later on.
He only got 29 years for murdering a guy with a hammer in his own home? California Democrat-Led justice system. He'll be able to get out of prison and enjoy the last 25 - 30 years of his life and meanwhile Sam Kellerman is dead. Unbelievably sad and infuriating.
Max would continually trash classy fighters like the Klitschko's using the most asinine excuses, like Chris Byrd's poison gloves nonsense that he pushed for years. Yet he defended the most vile thugs. Nothing worse than wiggers.
@dralol Butler didn't go to jail for punching Grant yo! He got suspended. Had Grant had any common (street) sense remaining, instead of goin hollywood with all the glitz & glamour of televised boxing, his dumbass would have known better than to forget them streets and its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". Especially in light of the person whom he knew he was in the ring with yo! Grant should have been out wit bitches dining and wining that nite but instead he fucked up
Grant did 6 months in jail for that punch. he got charged with aggravated assault. Hes doing life now for killing Max Kellermans brother, who gave him a place to stay and tried to help him when he got out of jail. The piece of shit beat him from behind with a hammer and robbed him. They should stomp his ass to death. Kellerman knew him from school days and was trying to be a friend
@boxerrick1966 just goes to show how stupid Grant was for thinkin like a safe suburban whitey instead of the hardened street thug he grew up as. Grant done forgot them streets and turned hollywood with all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing yo instead of KEEPIn IT REAL. Look where that whiteboy naievity got kellerman yo? An early fucken grave for that disney channel fairytale watching dumbass. His dumbass had an excuse for bein ignorant and naive-he a whiteboy. Grant shoulda known better
I dont think us white boys are that naive, just more civilized than Grant apparently. In the street, i would have blown Grants head off with my .380. Grant had bully mentality, couldnt take getting beat. Boxing is a sport, bro, not a free for all. i boxed for 8 years and had 74 golden gloves fights. None of the brothers in Detroit acted like that and neither did I. In 90 i won the Michigan State championship,at 147, and my opponent was the first to shake my hand.
@boxerrick1966 civility is another name for naivety is another name for stupidity yo when yo ass in there a known thug with a rep like Butlers and yo dumbass drop yo guard to go in for a pussyshit hug like yo be on oprah WTF?! That whiteboy attitude done get yo ass killed in the hood homie. Grant from the hood and from them streets i be talkin bout playa. Aint no suprise Yo whiteass shocked to see grant get hammered like this 4 forgettin them streets but Grant shoulda damn well known better
@boxerrick1966 Grant done turned hollywood and got too civilised with all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing. His ass paid the price for forgettin to KEEP IT REAL! He started goin soft and thinkin like he be a naive safe suburban whiteboy. Butler done probably saved his ass in the longrun by givin him this much needed refresher course in Streetsmarts 101 yo! Done probably saved his life in the long run yo, cos forgettin to KEEP IT REAL in da hood can cost a niggar his life homie!
well, i had just showed my ignorance, i just caught it reading my post. I meant Butler went to jail for the punch and the murder of Kellerman, I read about it in Ring Magazine. I can agree somewhat, i would have watched my ass a lil better with a cat with Butlers rep and attitude. But stupid, man. Boxing was a way out of the ghetto and all that trouble for the asshole. some guys dont know what to do with a good break
I grew up on the streets of Detroit right off Gratiot, i know all about how to handle myself on the streets. Butler wasnt on the street when this happened. All that is like being a queer or a dopehead. its a choice to be a man or a thug, like a caveman. Thats just like admitting the white boys are smarter than you to act civilised and take advantage of a good break. If i was a black guy, id be mad as hell for even implying that
@boxerrick1966 it dont matter that he not be on the street homie. Those lessons u learn in them streets be a philosophy yo ass take wit u 4 lyfe playa. "Never let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked" applies not only to the streets homie, but life in general yo! Grant be in the ring with a known felon, a reputed hood thug so his black ass should damn well known better than to forget them streets oldest rules. His ass shoulda kept it real...period. U saw what happened when he didn't yo!
@TheDkeigans how am i ignorant yo? What is it yo ass dont understand about Grant forgetting them streets and its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked" and then getting KTFO as a result yo? Grant knew he was in the ring with a well known felon and street thug like Butler and should have damn well known better than to drop his guard. Thats a mistake a disney channel watching naive suburban whiteboy like yrself and others commenting here would be expected to make..not Grant.
@tuaman21 dude you're a moron. Sucker punching someone like that is called being a pussy. After boxing matches the boxers usually hug each other like Grant was about to. The other guy was obviously not man enough to accept being beaten fairly by Grant so he decided he had to resort to being a coward
@sheegan8 Grant just as stupid for not keepin his guard up yo and forgettin them streets and its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". Next time he will always remember to KEEP IT REAL. He real lucky though. Here in the ring, Forgettin them streets only cost him a broke jaw and humiliation on national T.V. In them streets that shit of NOT keepin it real could cost a niggar his life yo! You dig what i be slingin homeboy?
@ rottenfungus - you know it dude! MMA Junkie sent me here too! Crazy post fight punch though, that is brutal to get injured like that - after the fight is over!
hate to say it but boxing and mma champs are always looked at like the best fighters in the world, but are in organizations with rules where being a fight dodger can win you a fight. by that i mean you can run, hug, and hold down oppenents without really beating them in a fight and win. I believe that is what leads these things to happen ala paul daley, these guys are looking to test thier metal and see whos the best and unfourtanatly in the real world this is how 80% of fights end. cheap shots
@ArtOfRuin99 I will never understand why idiots like you embrace a thug attitude when all it leads to is misery for yourself and the people around you. Why look up to low life gangsters who die before the age of 25 or spend their life in prison when you could be looking up to and mimicing people who became successful despite their poor upbringing. You obviously have access to a computer so do some fucking research.
@dralol yo bitch! Yo head in the clouds disneyworld attitude of ignorance is the same attitude that made Grant forgot them streets and as a result get knocked the fuck out. If the homie had been on point, instead of goin hollywood with all the glitz and glamour of HBO boxing, his dumbass would have known better than to drop his guard against a well known street thug like Butler. He was in a fight aginst a thug yo and needed to keep the mentality of a thug till the end. He didn't and paid for it
Tuaman21 do the world a favor and go get yourself shot in the fucking head. People like you is whats wrong with the world you thug scumbag piece of shit.
@ufcfanandy yo dumbass! Yo stupid ass is what wrong with the world today homie! People like u close yr eyes and believe that bad things dont happen to good people and act all shocked when it do. Thats the ignorant naive attitude that Grant had goin into this fight against a well known street thug. Grant done turned hollywood and paid the price.
@whooaaaa yo bitch! Butler be trippin yo but Grant done be trippin too by forgetting them streets yo and its numero uno rule "Neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked!". He done got too civilised wit all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing yo and done forgot to "ALWAYS KEEP IT REAL". Grant turned hollywood yo but Butler may have done his ass a favor by giving him a refresher course in Streetsmarts 101 so his ass know to neva forget them streets eva again playa!
@goathead111 Who'd be fool enough to try? There are a hell of a lot easier targets than him. Reminds when some Jujitsu master cho-mo went to the bing. As much as he deserves it I doubt anyone messes with him.
@rogersahagun The boxer, James Butler who punches Richard Grant, murdered a man named Sam Kellerman who is HBO Boxing Commentator Max Kellerman's brother. Sam Kellerman later confessed to the murder and is surving 29 years.
@GreatestHooligan LMAO! I made a mistake. Oh my. My grammar was horrendous in the comment above. What I meant to say is this, "James Butler confessed to murdering Sam Kellerman and is serving (not surving, lol) 29 years in prison.
@danhantheman what for yo? Grant done bought it on himself by "forgettin them streets" yo and its numero uno rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked!". That Grant done turned hollywood wit all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing. Homie shoulda known to "keep it real" and be on guard when he in wit a well known street thug wit a record like Butler. Instead his dumbass go in for a pussyshit hug like he be on the oprah show yo! Talk about dumbass!
@tuaman21 you should try and clean up your english , just alittle bit. not everything is about the "streets". and not every black man, needs to be a nigger. just remember that
@ArtOfRuin99 clean up my english? Why bitch? u think It be dirty like yo moms cumstained panties? LOL That be street vernacular hillbilly boy. Look here fool. Yo prim and proper queens english didn't save Grant from getting knocked the fuck out on national T.V did it? That niggar done forgot them streets oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gona get jacked", Jive sucka gone turned hollywood. He done forgot them streets but yo ass neva even knew them in the 1st place yo!
@ArtOfRuin99 yo hillbilly ass would automatically know this if yo ass from the streets. The lessons yo ass learn from them mean streets can be transfered anyway homeboy! It not only apply to life in the streets yo, it apply to life in general playa! STREETSMARTS 101 homie. Yo better off sticking to skateboardin or horse ranchin or whateva it is yo suburban or hillbilly whiteboys do in yo sparetime. Leave the fight talk to the thugs yo!
@ArtOfRuin99 yo obama be speakin like he a white man so its no suprise homie LOL but all of obamas presidential wisdom dont mean shit if he be in the ring with a well known thug like butler and go in for a pussyshit hug like that dumbass GRANT. Theres booksmarts and STREETSMARTS homie. Streetsmarts be what grant done forgot yo when he turned hollywood and forgot the streets numero uno rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". He will know from now on to "ALWAYS KEEP IT REAL" yo!
@tuaman21 sorry i didnt know good sportsmanship didnt apply to black men in sports, especially pro boxing...grant was keepin it real,....is it speaking white or just being educated? cause not all white people speak good english..but then again the white people who are ignorant talk like you...focus on whats important in life and break the cycle, be apart of the solution not the problem
@ArtOfRuin99 good sportsmanship sure didn't apply to Butler yo. as Grant found out when he became the star of one of the all time blooper highlight reel for the ages yo! Grant should have KEPT IT REAL & remembered his lessons from them streets "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". Especially when you in the ring wit a known street thug like Butler. That just be common street sense yo! Instead Grant turned hollywood & started thinkin like a safe naive suburban whiteboy. That shit whack
@ArtOfRuin99 if yo ass was from them mean streets i be talkin bout, you'd automaticay know what i be talkin bout yo, instead of comin up with irrelevant shit like "speak good english" & "break the cycle". What yo cracker ass be on about? What that got to do with Grant forgettin the streets oldest rule and gettin humiliated & KTFO on national T.V? Yo prim & proper queens english didn't save grant from the sucker punch yo! He should have remembered to ALWAYS KEEP IT REAL! Instead he got whacked
@Tr36lak showing love? Yo, you been hit wit the dumbstick yo? Showing love be all good but yo ass neva let yo guard down homie, especially when yo ass in the ring wit another street thug wit a record yo! that be common street sense yo!
you clowns are fucking idiots wanking on about what your learn in the streets get real you slow ass monkeys this is boxing its a sport not a street fight butler is a lil bitch any one can knock someone out when there not expecting it after going 12 rounds grant had real respect going in to say good fight to butler not acting like a fuckin fool any retard preaching street shit can suck a dick till they hik up mother fuckers
@neate1000 yo bitch. Yo so called "real respect" and honor shit didn't save Grant from getting knocked the fuck out like a bitch and humiliated on national T.V did it? He be the star of one of the blooper reels 4 the ages yo, all cos he forgot the streets & its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". FACT. Grant became too hollywood, blinded by all the glitz & glamour of pro boxing. Fool shoulda checked himself b4 he wrecked himself yo! Dude from da hood shoulda known better

Max would continually trash classy fighters like the Klitschko's using the most asinine excuses, like Chris Byrd's poison gloves nonsense that he pushed for years. Yet he defended the most vile thugs. Nothing worse than wiggers.

@dralol Butler didn't go to jail for punching Grant yo! He got suspended. Had Grant had any common (street) sense remaining, instead of goin hollywood with all the glitz & glamour of televised boxing, his dumbass would have known better than to forget them streets and its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". Especially in light of the person whom he knew he was in the ring with yo! Grant should have been out wit bitches dining and wining that nite but instead he fucked up

Grant did 6 months in jail for that punch. he got charged with aggravated assault. Hes doing life now for killing Max Kellermans brother, who gave him a place to stay and tried to help him when he got out of jail. The piece of shit beat him from behind with a hammer and robbed him. They should stomp his ass to death. Kellerman knew him from school days and was trying to be a friend

@boxerrick1966 just goes to show how stupid Grant was for thinkin like a safe suburban whitey instead of the hardened street thug he grew up as. Grant done forgot them streets and turned hollywood with all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing yo instead of KEEPIn IT REAL. Look where that whiteboy naievity got kellerman yo? An early fucken grave for that disney channel fairytale watching dumbass. His dumbass had an excuse for bein ignorant and naive-he a whiteboy. Grant shoulda known better

@tuaman21
I dont think us white boys are that naive, just more civilized than Grant apparently. In the street, i would have blown Grants head off with my .380. Grant had bully mentality, couldnt take getting beat. Boxing is a sport, bro, not a free for all. i boxed for 8 years and had 74 golden gloves fights. None of the brothers in Detroit acted like that and neither did I. In 90 i won the Michigan State championship,at 147, and my opponent was the first to shake my hand.

@boxerrick1966 civility is another name for naivety is another name for stupidity yo when yo ass in there a known thug with a rep like Butlers and yo dumbass drop yo guard to go in for a pussyshit hug like yo be on oprah WTF?!

@boxerrick1966 Grant done turned hollywood and got too civilised with all the glitz and glamour of televised boxing. His ass paid the price for forgettin to KEEP IT REAL! He started goin soft and thinkin like he be a naive safe suburban whiteboy. Butler done probably saved his ass in the longrun by givin him this much needed refresher course in Streetsmarts 101 yo! Done probably saved his life in the long run yo, cos forgettin to KEEP IT REAL in da hood can cost a niggar his life homie!

@tuaman21
well, i had just showed my ignorance, i just caught it reading my post. I meant Butler went to jail for the punch and the murder of Kellerman, I read about it in Ring Magazine. I can agree somewhat, i would have watched my ass a lil better with a cat with Butlers rep and attitude. But stupid, man. Boxing was a way out of the ghetto and all that trouble for the asshole. some guys dont know what to do with a good break
boxerrick1966 1 year ago
@tuaman21
I grew up on the streets of Detroit right off Gratiot, i know all about how to handle myself on the streets. Butler wasnt on the street when this happened. All that is like being a queer or a dopehead. its a choice to be a man or a thug, like a caveman. Thats just like admitting the white boys are smarter than you to act civilised and take advantage of a good break. If i was a black guy, id be mad as hell for even implying that
boxerrick1966 1 year ago
@boxerrick1966 it dont matter that he not be on the street homie. Those lessons u learn in them streets be a philosophy yo ass take wit u 4 lyfe playa. "Never let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked" applies not only to the streets homie, but life in general yo! Grant be in the ring with a known felon, a reputed hood thug so his black ass should damn well known better than to forget them streets oldest rules. His ass shoulda kept it real...period. U saw what happened when he didn't yo!

Thats a mistake a disney channel watching naive suburban whiteboy like yrself and others commenting here would be expected to make..not Grant.

@tuaman21 dude you're a moron. Sucker punching someone like that is called being a pussy. After boxing matches the boxers usually hug each other like Grant was about to. The other guy was obviously not man enough to accept being beaten fairly by Grant so he decided he had to resort to being a coward

@sheegan8 Grant just as stupid for not keepin his guard up yo and forgettin them streets and its oldest rule "neva let yo guard down or yo gonna get jacked". Next time he will always remember to KEEP IT REAL. He real lucky though. Here in the ring, Forgettin them streets only cost him a broke jaw and humiliation on national T.V. In them streets that shit of NOT keepin it real could cost a niggar his life yo! You dig what i be slingin homeboy?

hate to say it but boxing and mma champs are always looked at like the best fighters in the world, but are in organizations with rules where being a fight dodger can win you a fight. by that i mean you can run, hug, and hold down oppenents without really beating them in a fight and win. I believe that is what leads these things to happen ala paul daley, these guys are looking to test thier metal and see whos the best and unfourtanatly in the real world this is how 80% of fights end. cheap shots

@ArtOfRuin99 I will never understand why idiots like you embrace a thug attitude when all it leads to is misery for yourself and the people around you. Why look up to low life gangsters who die before the age of 25 or spend their life in prison when you could be looking up to and mimicing people who became successful despite their poor upbringing. You obviously have access to a computer so do some fucking research.
