Note: Probellum announced that the WBO Interim bantamweight title fight between Paul Butler and Joseph Agbeko will no longer be taking place on this event. Reportedly Butler didn’t want to fight for the interim belt.
Especially considering all of the changes they had so late on, it was a pretty good show by Probellum, actually.
Butler would of lost to Agbeko if they fought he avoided it by stopping the fight
