Naoya Inoue vs. Paul Butler set for December

The bantamweight division will have its first undisputed champion in nearly 50 years. The undisputed king of the division will be crowned this upcoming December when the WBA, IBF and WBC champion Naoya Inoue will face the WBO ruler Paul Butler.

The fight is set for December 13 and it will be held in Japan.

Inoue, 29, is coming off a second round knockout of Nonito Donaire in their rematch last June in Saitama, Japan. Donaire had given Inoue huge problems in their first fight in November 2019, losing a grueling 12 round unanimous decision in a fight that saw both fighters hurt.

Butler recently captured the vacant WBO title with a 12-round unanimous decision over Jonas Sultan in April. The victory for Butler was his eighth straight since losing a 12 round decision to Emmanuel Rodriguez four years ago in 2018. In 2015, Zolani Tete blitzed Butler, stopping him in the eighth round.
