MUTV Interview: Butterbean

Heavyweight Boxing legend Butterbean stopped by the Marquette Student Media office before his "Brew City Brawl" fight. Butterbean chatted with MUTVSports Director Brad Galli and Marquette Tribune Sports Director Nick Bullock about his upcoming retirement bout, his boxing son, and an encounter with Michael Jordan.

[@VelcroKittie]

Honestly...Butterbean just seems like such a decent fella. A really big heart I would say, and comes across as being caring to others. It's what you really want to see in sport. Savage in the ring, but once the bell goes, it's back to that big old loving heart. Great stuff from him. Massive love and respect from London, UK Butterbean

[@humanforfreedom9583]

I'm from London to watched his knockout videos since the 90s when I was a kid he does seem like regular guy and was much better boxer than his appearance would suggest

[@khalidazhar101]

love butterbean true warrior spirit, best of health to man .

[@jasonhull2163]

Butter Bean is one of the nicest guys ever. His boxing face is just to keep up his spirit. In the end he is a heavy hitting big hearted guy. You are a legend.

[@kokaimanawatokuingoa8440]

[@benjic80]

Seeing him in the ring I never thought he'd be so likeable. He is a smiler thats for sure, and what a smile it is. Thanks Butterbean.

[@sadlymusic]

I don't know because just by the first video i saw Butterbeen fighting in the ring i got fully symphatie for him, understanding as he had a great heart of hero by likes he used so proudly and correctly fight with full respect of any adverse puncher !
Thank you for what you are Butterbeen... you enjoyed my eyes loocking as clear and generouse you are in any chance as right honest person... so rare be in the commercial sport !
(when i hear people louding anytime he comes announced as introduced by the speacker-man of the match even, i always think that the crowd would had done joke for fun !)

[@outcast668]

I honestly would've loved to hear what he had to say about the Brawl for All. Such a good man that people trash talk about as though he should've lost against Bart Gunn...

[@georgeendres762]

I think the whole world knows the butterbean🤣

[@jackfordmac]

[@Nobody-xe9fc]

Butterbean is much like Iron Sheik in a couple ways: They can shoot beat the fuck out of you, and all the celebs know them and love them.

TheBullworthless Do you really think people are going understand that gibberish mess of what you just tried to say? Stay in school. And if you're out, go back.

[@MrPuml]

[@johnathanadams3763]

The dude has like a 60 and 2 fighting record . Overrated ? No way .

[@thetimetraveler7509]

He is not legendary!
