June 8, 1996 — Eric “Butterbean” Esch (16-0-1, 15 KOs) faced Jonathan Whitfield (16-6, 8 KOs) in a heavyweight bout that turned into a short but explosive showdown. Known as “The King of the 4-Rounders,” Butterbean brought his trademark power and fan-favorite style, while Whitfield looked to pull off the upset. A true throwback to the wild heavyweight nights of the 90s!
