    Not sure he'd hit him that hard.

    Yes..good... thats good. Although Byrd didn't beat Golota , he got a gift draw in a fight he clearly lost. If Don King had been managing Golota instead of Byrd he woulda won by shut out cos he scored two KD that were ruled as slips.
    And Golota was years past his best , post accident and without any jab.
    Herby Hide.. Thats shows you exactly how a Bowe vs Byrd fight would have went down.. Anybody picking Byrd to win is purely an agenda driven fan boi of fighters and not a fan of sport.:drooling: :rambo1:

    I scored it 7-5 for Byrd. I though he beat Ruiz though.

    I don't think think here is an agenda favouring Byrd over Bowe, Chris doesn't have that big a fan base.

    He actually does and its among the the obsessive Klitschko crowd. One guy said Byrd beating Bowe would literately be a refreshing sunday stroll cake walk.
    He even bests Foreman around here.
    People think Byrd was good cos he beat Vitali and took prime Wlad hte distance , but that only shows me how bad the Klits were , not how good Byrd was. I think Byrd was very ordinary.

    I like defensive in fighters so I've always enjoyed his fights.

    Byrd having success in a fantasy fight in no way benefits either Klitscko brother imo.

    I have to give Bowe the edge. Chris could be tricky at times and pulled out a few miracles in his career, but Riddick was in a higher class and would have all the physical advantages. And Byrd didn't have the kind of durability needed to go 12 rounds with him.
