Then you can dismiss a whole lot of wins from the ATG heavies who beat many guys at a weight some super welters blow up to at fightnight in this era.
Depends on who, were they 240-250 pounds like Wlad, outweighing Byrd by nearly 50 pounds, and 6 inches taller? It's a good win, but it's not a win that makes him an ATG, which he's not. HOF forsure, but this era is just too weak for him to be put among the greats.
nearly 50lbs my ass. 27.5 when they last fought, 24.5 the first time. Comparable with some of Ali's and Louis' fights, and in their case a bigger difference % wise.
Well 30 pounds is a HUGE difference especially when the guy is also 6 inches shorter, and is really a LHW.
Byrd's best win is against a Vitali he was CLEARLY losing to and stopped due to an injury, are you guys going to give Byrd credit for this win just so you can make Wlad look better hahaha.
A light heavy that beat Holyfield and David Tua. Also defeated Mccline who had 6 inches and 54lbs on him.
it is, but no difference at all with other heavyweights that were big for their time, so it's a mute point really.
No just not making an attempt to diminish a quality opponent to suit an agenda. Ask any heavyweight if Byrd was an easy nights work.
Yeah, he sure did beat Holyfield in his prime! Oh wait he beat a Holyfield that was around 40 lmfao, and was already taking losses against guys like Ruiz who former MW champ Roy Jones beat to become HW champ.
Do you mean moot point? lol @ mute point. So tell me what other ATG heavyweights had a 6 inch advantage and 30pound advantage over their opponent who should have fought at LHW, and I'll take credit away from them too.
A very similar version of Holyfield to the one that is one of Lewis' key wins. As for you nonsense about Vitklit, Klit haters would turn the logic right on its head and say that Vitali does not get a pass becasue he was injured. Bottom line, Byrd beat a version of Holyfield who had just beat Rahmen to get another shot at a belt, Vitklit, and Tua. Suck it fool. Wow. And you are a Wilder sack cleaner. Makes sense, but at the same time, is still remarkable that you could degrade two great champions like Byrd and WladKlit while pushing that fraudulent piece of ****.
