If Lennox Lewis punched you in the face, you would require the services of :

[this building](http://www.lwdh.on.ca/images/emergency.jpg),

and [this man.](http://jhsweb01.tju.edu/www.jeffersonhospital.org/images/surgeon.jpg)

From [http://www.butterbean.com/about.html:](http://www.butterbean.com/about.html:)

> Presented with the WAA belt for World Super Heavyweight Champion in 1996 Butterbean has held the title ever since. He is known as the “King of the Four Rounders”, winning virtually all of his matches and most of those ending in KO’s the first round.

> Butterbean trained in his home town of Jasper, Alabama entering into the Toughman Competitions where he won 45 out of 47 matches. Quickly he moved into the boxing arena and the rest is history. Butterbean has a professional history of 46 wins, 1 loss, 2 draws and 35 KO’s.
