Raphael Butler has spent most of his life learning and trying to perfect the Sweet Science. The longtime professional boxer made the jump from the ring to the cage a few years ago, and he has flourished -- so much so that the fistic veteran has made it all the way into the Bellator MMA rank. He hopes to keep it that way.

Butler began boxing professionally in 2004 and knocked out 13 of his first 17 foes.
