Raphael Butler

Raphael Butler

Raphael Butler, born January 4, 1984 in Chicago, Illinois, is heavyweight professional boxer. Butler now resides in Rochester, Minnesota.

Amateur

He had a stellar amateur career, winning the 2004 National Golden Gloves Super Heavyweight Championship. Butler represented the 4th Street Gym in his hometown of Rochester.

Professional career

Butler turned pro in 2004 and has been highly active thus far in his pro career. He was seen as a future star in the sport early on, but suffered two TKO losses against journeyman fighters in 2005. In 2006 he took on ESPN house fighter Jason Gavern, and lost a decision. After the loss, Butler ran off a string of victories against marginal opposition before taking on Art Binkowski in a nationally televised showcase bout on ShoBox. Despite dropping Binkowski three times in the first round, Butler tired as the fight went on, and the referee stopped the fight with just 30 seconds left before the final bell, awarding Binkowski a TKO. As of May 2008 Butler's professional record was 31 wins (24 by knockout) and 4 losses.
