    I remember trying to watch that fight.

    I ended up saying **** it and read a book, the Corrections by Johnathan Franzen, I remember this clearly.

    It was a good book. Periodically I would look up at the fight, but neither man seemed incline to punch at the other one

    You guys wanna know what the saddest part of the fight was????


    Wlad begged Byrd to fight him. Byrd had no interest. So IBF had a court deciding who was more worthy to challenge Byrd. Wlad who already destroyed Byrd once and had beaten Williamson was denied a shot at Byrd. And the imbeciles at the court decided by some Don King like logic that WIlliamson is more worthy of a shot.

    Williamson put on the most disgracefull performance in history of boxing for a fighter who get a shot at the heavyweight championship of the world.

    While some time later when Wlad got to Byrd who massacred him into a pulp.

    Never seen it. Watched another fight that night im 99.9 percent sure it was Jones-Tarver III another terrible fight but that did have some decent moments.
