No they weren't. You can count the # of clean punches Vitali was hit with in the entire fight on 2 hands
shame for you he won the fight by making vitali miss, then. byrd knew vits was a crude guy, and used vits strength against him. Krav Maga-ed him good.
Only 8 punches difference it was very close considering Byrd was unprepared and a featherfist who couldn't punch at all obviously he wasn't dangerous but he beat the prime vitali in his homeland. This loss was a shame and ridicolous.
yup, welcome to planet Kliturd, and those freak injuries that only occur when vits is fighting a decent boxer. never freak injury when hes facing a weakling as usual. no menstruating face vuginas when Vitali fights them.
And this is why you are a close second to wass in the dumbest poster race....that's unfortunate!atsch
If Vitali survived he'd have won the fight but controversially. I say Byrd would have took a 7-5 scorecard sweeping the last 3.
7-5? Stay away from judging! Vitali was way in the lead while injured. If the fight was at the end of his career or for higher stakes, maybe he risks further injury, The truth is many hall of fame fighters quit, and in some cases with lesser injuries. Examples: Harry Greb, Jack Johnson, and Sugar Ray Robinson. And none of these guys were in the lead as far as Vitali was vs a future #1 rated opponent.
because they weren't fighting a comparative weakling from 2 divisions lower. You've only made it worse for vitali with your claim.
I don't think it was all that close. From what I saw Vitali probably won about 6 or 7 of those rounds.
