    A fight for the ages (because it would feel like ages passed watching it).
    Who wins this matchup?

    I like Byrd to take a decision here but Akinwande’s size would make it a cumbersome fight
     
    Usyk is the best and Devon like this.

    This one would be a stinker. I'll take Byrd.

    You’re lucky I don’t report you for such an atrocious affair. Admit it, even you wouldn’t show up to watch this.

    Byrd UD, one of the most boring fights ever.

    Byrd by UD. Far more skilled and mentally strong. It would enable to overcome physical disadvantages. And no, Akinwande wouldn't be able to replicate what Wlad did in any form. Different levels. The only things Akinwande is similar to Wlad are size and clinching abilities. Wlad was far more technically sound, quicker and hit incomparably harder with both hands

    Chris Byrd would win but it would be a very ugly fight.

    I think it could possibly be worse than Byrd/Davaryl Williamson (where Chris Byrd actually became the stalker :confused:)

    Fight is declared a NC because by the time it’s over the judges have spent half the fight on their phones.
