    Awesome, had somewhat forgotten about that... Byrd was awesome, loved Byrd... Funny about all those people who said he couldn't punch... The people who got punched by him sure didn't seem to enjoy it!

    I remember one of his later fight, against a bald guy I think it was, who just did a right hand and then shoulder tackled him, over and over again... Anyone remember that?

    KLitschko was DOMINATING Byrd, even while pulling his punches.

    But yeah, Vitali pussed out, and now the flaming homosexuals have argument for hating on him.

    It was a legit win but of course it was due to injury.

    That being said, MANY of Byrd's opponents have suffered similar injuries fighting him because he makes them throw their arms out. Holyfield comes to mind.

    But let's also not act like Byrd was beating Vitali's ass.

    What I’ve heard about the match from K2 fans, Vitalis hand was basically ripped off.

    He couldn’t punch or move but was still outboxing Byrd. One more round and his career would have been over so quitting actually was courageous thing to do.

    Real mans quit against Byrd and claim that they were winning the event afterwards.



    So no he wasn’t and you can count it in Vitalis win column :good

    Vitali was easily outboxing Byrd with one arm! Byrd would have had zero chance against Vitali in a rematch period. Byrd was not in Vitali's class. Byrd said that Vitali was harder to fight than Vlad.

    Vitali had approx. 2.5 hours of surgery after the fight on his arm. His arm was numb, pinches nerve, but most here do not want to know the truth because of their bias and pure hate. They should go to Fox Noise Channel.

    People laughed when I said Ike ruined Byrd. He never set down on his punches again after that fight. Byrd could punch he was a KO artist at middleweight as a amateur.

    Thats what I’ve heard. One more punch and Vitalis career would have been over.

    But he would have still beaten Byrd by KO.

    Cool video.

    By the way, I noticed Steve Smoger already did his "kiss of death" back then..... watch at 3:28. He decided this guy just got one on the chest, not the forehead.
