    Chris Byrd wins a close decision. Byrd in his prime was a great fighter, in fact, his performance against Tua is one of the best performances I've seen of boxing in the heavyweight division.

    dont forget though, it is Tua, he's basically a journeyman level fighter with a monsterous punch.

    Byrd would outbox Ruiz to a boring decision

    Whoever wins the fans would be the losers.

    Byrd wins a close UD in probably a SOTY (stinker of the year) candidate.

    Byrd in his prime was a damn good fighter. He made Vitali look bad in their fight and he wasn't being dominated as some claim he was it was a close and competitive fight. Ruiz went to hell and back vs an aging, past his prime Holy back then. Byrd by a wide UD in a snoozefest.
