Master doesn't realize that Chris Byrd did not make Vitali quit

[ross]

vitali quit on his own, byrd didnt help

Vitali could very well be 47-0. He wasn't behind on anyone's scorecards. Shit happens with injuries in the ring....just ask Henry Cooper. Now way in hell Chris Byrd got to Vitali mentally with a boxing clinic...he was down on the cards. Lennox fight is a toss up who knows how it would have turned out with those two big punchers.

Who else was the opponent?

He quit. He didnt want to be in the ring facing Byrd any more, not any other fighter. It was Byrd who was throwing punches at him. No matter how you try to say it Vitali quit against Byrd. If Byrd was an easy touch Vitali would have continued because he was so far ahead but he didnt. He quit and quit against Byrd. He couldnt face another round against Byrd.

Also, he never rematched him, ask yourself why.

Same reason Wlad never rematched Sanders. Those brothers are mentally weak. They didnt have the strength of character someone like Lewis did to redeem themselves against those fighters that beat them. They couldnt face getting in the ring with them again for fear of not being able to overcome the problems they faced previously.

Dont try and make excuses for either of them, they are big and rich enough to deal with their failings.
