i will do a round by round for the byrd v povetkin fight

The fight went down-hill badly for Byrd starting in the 6th round. He was stunned in the 10th , and started take a pounding in the 11th.

 

I think Byrd could have survived, but he was definitely losing the fight and getting a beating.

Povetkin has another good win for a guy with only 14 fights. And he not only beat a very good fighter like Byrd, he also learned how to fight and important bout with a cut.

 

You can understand a fighter's dad tossing in the towel a bit prematurely, cause he don't want to see his son get beaten any more than is necessary.

 

But here he was, stopped.

 

It wasnt out there mate - I know when to stop a fight and I think that Byrd could have continued. But hey - they know better than I do.

 

Thanks to all you guys from Down Under..... A really top R by R ....:good

 

Appreciate the rbr!

 

:rofl

I called this one wrong, and I have now lost what little credibility I had. LOL

 

Exactly. I trust Byrd's corner on this one.

 

I think I gotta lose to an American before I quit, says Byrd.

 

yep, it was almost as good as your holyfield pick!

 

Byrd was so far behind on the scorecards , and couldnt hurt Povetkin anyway, (the only chance he had was KO at that point). It didnt matter, Byrd was just taking a pounding.

 

:good
