    I just watched Toney-Jirov and after the fight Lights Out calls out Byrd (along with Jones Jr, Lennox Lewis and various others) :rofl. Anyway, Byrd was at the fight, and a Toney-Byrd fight could have happened in 2003-2005. Who would have won?

    Toney back then was still sharp enough to beat Byrd

    That's a tough fight for Toney because Byrd could've used his reach advantage and pot shoted Toney as he moved on the back foot. Toney needs a heavy who comes forward and doesn't use defense.
