Vince McMahon is the WWE chairman. And he has come across several individuals from several fields. Thus, he also established relationships while working with them. Recently, boxing legend Butterbean detailed his work experience with Mr. McMahon.
Butterbean is one of the few boxers who appeared in WWE. He even stepped inside the squared circle and competed in WWE twice.
Recently, during an interview on The Hannibal TV, the boxing legend talked about Vince McMahon and his working relationship with Vince.

Butterbean said, “He’s a great guy. He is business. He tells you what he’s gonna do, and that’s what he did. If he screwed over people in the past, he might have. But with me, this is what we’ll do, this is what we will agree on, handshake and that was about it.”
In 1997, at D-Generation X: In Your House PPV, Butterbean fought Marc Mero. But the ending to the match was very disappointing. Marc Mero hit the boxing legend with a low blow, leading to a disqualification win for Butterbean.
Again, at WrestleMania XV, Butterbean competed against Bart Gunn in a Brawl For All Match. The match ended in just 34 seconds as Butterbean picked up the victory via knockout. However, these two matches in WWE were not his only professional wrestling matches.
