Tubby was a 230lbs+ fast handed true HW who fought nothing like him… Byrd was a blown up 160lber, Byrd said he was 10lbs lighter than what it said on the scales and had no chin, that every HW was the touch of death but he just stayed away - Bowe would not be put off and would just maul Chris eventually.
You’re right you’re right - Foreman pushes, Holyfield buts, Byrd dislocates and Liston / Vitali quits.
Threre ya go Foreman also benchpresses cattle and Liston and Tyson have everybody running scared even before they reach the ring.
Honestly though ... Bowe probably does beat him down eventually. His speciality was beating down smaller guys and guys with no power. If Byrd was the same size he'd maul Bowe but he's a long way from that.
Probably similar to the Ibeabuchi fight. Byrd frustrates Bowe and wins some rounds until Bowe finally corners him and knocks him out in the middle rounds.
