In the eighth round, Volny had the better of it when Butler landed a low blow at the bell.
In the ninth round, Volny had Butler in trouble holding on several times, landing half a dozen unanswered punches when referee Villeneuve waved it off. Butler pushed him in what may have been a premature stoppage, though Butler was in trouble.
