Chris Byrd vs Vitali Klitschko: My Scorecard with Comments

Vitali has proven himself within a ring, not just boxing, but a six time world kickboxing champion......................so..............you can lie all you want about Vitali, but that will not make him a bad fighter. He beat all your heroes and would have knocked Stiverne out as well as Wilder...................so, go lie some more, I know what Vitali has done over the years..........................have you done what Vitali has done?

 

I thought your uncle Moisha was a Psychiatrist?:yep

 

IIRC Vitali injured his arm in either the 2nd or 3rd round. I don't think it is ever mentioned in the broadcast.

 

Boxers occasionally injure themselves in a fight. Byrd just got lucky which is why he jumped up and down like he won the lottery when the fight stopped because he probably rightfully assumed he was going to lose a wide UD decision.

 

Lewis losing to Rahman and McCall were basically flukes just like Vitali losing to Byrd. Most boxers don't win every single fight they have even if they are ATG.

 

Byrd was playing possum and clowning around half way through the fight.

He toy'd with Vitali and made him swat air to the point of exhaustion.

There's more honor gettting spark'd out than there is being clowned by a pillow puff punching - non heavy weight.

 

Quite frankly Vitali looked way more exhausted after 12 rounds of fighting Chisora. The idea that Vitali quit due to exhaustion against Byrd is the sort of idiotic thing only you would say.

No wonder you predicted Wlad would lose the last ten fights he had.

 

Ahhh yes, the old i injured myself early and quit late ploy. If you've heard it once you've heard it a thousand times!!

 

So defensive ability and avoiding the puches of a guy 35lbs heavier and 7 inchrs taller is now called luck? Lmao....only in Klitschko land.

 

You can say those fights were flukes because Lewis actually rematched those losses and won. Vits didnt.

 

'Vitali injured his arm in either the 2nd or 3rd round."

And waited until the 10th to quit?

Seems odd to me.

"I don't think it is ever mentioned in the broadcast."

How would the announcers know as Vitali kept right on using his left.

Truthfully, there is no evidence the shoulder was badly injured except for the post-fight claim that it was.

I didn't notice any operation scar at the time of the Hoffmann fight.

And Vitali had his next fight only a little over a month after Byrd had his, hardly a long layoff. Byrd was quoted in 2011 as saying he wanted a rematch with Vitali, but could only get a fight with Wlad.

 

"Vitali looked way more exhausted after 12 rounds of fighting Chisora."

When he was 40.

He was 28 fighting Byrd.

 

Morbs, I think you just made Bert quit.

 

The luck is in Vitali injuring himself enough to quit the fight. Even with the injury Vitali was kicking Byrd's ass seven rounds to two. Without the injury it would look like Wlad's two fights with Byrd.
