    Would Byrd make Wilder miss for 12 rounds and peck his way to victory?

    No but he'd make Joshua miss like Takam did.

    Wilder wouldn't lay a glove on Byrd. It would be the most embarrassing thing ever. It would look like Holmes vs Cobb or Klitschko vs Wach.

    Lol Byrd.

    One guy fought and beat some of the very best fighters of his generation. The other guy in 40 fights hasn't earnt any respect.

    Actually he probably would. Byrd at his best was a top shelf fighter.

    Byrd beat Tua & Holyfield easily & made vitali hyper extend to a quittage.. Drew Golota, McCline, Phil Jackson, Bert Cooper, Oquendo..

    Was even ahead against monster puncher Ike!

    The slick elusive southpaw would own that basketball player! Even hot dog sellers like Dustin Nichols & Harold Sconiers make this guy look stupid! China chinned Molina & Duhaupas & a football hooligan made him look like an amateur Wesley Snipes impersonator trying to pretend he can box!

    Byrd in his prime could make almost any giant heavyweight look foolish if they didn't come with the right gameplan. Wlad learned from Vitali's defeat and didn't waste any movements and picked his punches very carefully. If Wilder is patient he gets the knockout, but if gets too wild too early Byrd would steal it from him.

    Vlad beat Byrd easily because he knew how to throw Byrd's timing off.
