Byrd probably could beat Peter.

But... Byrd(in fighting attitude) reminds me of someone like Meldrick Taylor(not in style or excitement, but in attitude)

Because he'll say that he should box and move, and when he does that he's very good at it, but Byrd will get in there with people 50 pounds heavier knowing he doesnt have the punching power and stand nad go toe to toe with them to make it exciting.  I like that about Byrd but it's really not helpful to his career.  

Byrd got guts and is a fighter, but I think boxing would be his best way, but I know he's gonna stand and trade so why even try to fool us fans into thinking you're gonna go back to boxing?  come on chris

And it's amazing... in some of his stinky performances since winning that title(I can only think of two boring fights) it was his opponent stinking it out not him. Oquendo was being a "spoiler" like people give Calzaghe an excuse for looking bad in his last fight And was making the fight ugly with his fouling and tackling and such while Chris was actually moving forward trying to press the fight and be exciting.

Golata fight = ACTION PACKED!!!!

McCline fight = ACTION PACKED!!!!

The Williamson fight, Byrd was moving forward all night and Williamson was backing away and running from him, why.. I do not know.

Even that Wladimer fight he lost was exciting, he wins the first round with body punches and moving AWAY from Wladimer's power hand and then in every other round after that he moves the opposite way.

Anyone have the round where Wladimer first dropped him and had him in trouble, that was an exciting round to me, way Wladimer almost had Byrd out of there and Byrd kept fighting whilst being out on his feet trying to do something, liked it for excitement!
