    No way could Byrd take those shots off Wilder.

    Any boxer not named (Tyson Fury) gets beaten by the hardest puncher in boxing history Deontay Wilder

    6'09" Tyson Fury himself had to overcome a NDE KD in RD 12, before being able to distinguish himself as the only man to go 1-1-0 vs Wilder

    I favor Wilder. I think the right hand eventually lands. If Byrd gets up the windmilling stops him.

    Byrd by whitewash decision could happen but I see Wilder stopping him late as the most likely outcome. Prime Byrd gives any version of Wilder absolute fits but I just don’t see him avoiding that incredible right hand.

    Just an honest assertion: could Byrd continue evading Dee's over hand right by continuously circling to his own (Byrd's) right away from D's right hand in a motion like keep pivoting the right foot while the rear left foot continues to sway backwards and to the right direction, ? If he could do this would be get caught at some point? Also what punches would you want him to throw in terms of combinations? I was thinking maybe right hand glued to the thigh only coming up for jabs, making deontay lose sight of the upjab? And maybe keep the left guard up and tight protecting his own (Chris byrds) left face/ body and then when deontay gets frustrated trying to square up , Byrd just pop him with a hard left cross?
