DO NOT underestimate Byrd! he held the title for a long time! 2002-2006! Don't forget, the world's formost boxing authority picked Byrd to beat Ali.
With good wins over Vitali,Tua and Evander + others!
He is a very smart boxer and very skilled! He would be,and will be,VERY tough at cruiser. I don't know....I'd pick Byrd cuz I think he's a smarter person. But I'd love to see it!
He got a forifeit win over vitali and lost that belt in his next fight against a far more inferior boxer than vitali and that 4 year awesome title reign he had was 5 fights!!!! against bums no less. He is not skilled he is boring as hell and everytime he's stepped in with a boxer that isn't afraid to throw punches, he got knocked on his ass.
