    Patterson tight UD. Byrd doesn't have the power to keep Patterson honest but it'd still be close. I can understand a pick for Byrd

    I think Patterson would be awful for Byrd. Completely takes away the speed advantage he won fights with.

    This. Just like Ike Patterson would time Byrd and knock him out. Byrd was an excellent fighter, but Patterson is all wrong for him.

    Chris would hate this fight , he'd be constantly getting tagged by Floyd . He'd start making mistakes and Patterson really open s up .
    A frustrated Bryd get s hooked one to many times .
    Patterson by ko 10 .
