I hate to be the spoil sport in this Byrd love fest.
Nice guy and all... and hats off to him for his tremendous boxing skills and probably some overachievement in the HW division given his physical deficiencies.
BUT................... I absolutely HATED to watch any of his fights. I don't know. Maybe I expect stuff out of heavyweights that I don't expect out of other weight divisions. I know it's unfair. But Byrd would put me to sleep. To each his own, I guess. I was spoiled by the Ali's, the Fraziers, the Foremans, the Lennoxes, the Tysons (Mike, not Fury). Even the Ruddocks and the Tuas. Heavyweight isn't the division for chess playing.
