    Agreed it would have been nice to see this 7 or 8 years ago...Chris is a guy with massive heart

    Its almost like coming full circle for Byrd...From Spr Middle to Heavy and back down.Ive come to respect Byrd....after thinking him a fleet of foot/small heart type fighter.He called out everyone,risk/reward ratio too steep for some but He succedded in a world of doubts......for the most part.I think age/speed will be a HUGE factor,He could look slick and fluid with most big heavys but top guys meeting him at Lt Heavy like size & speed will catch up to him Imo.Much hindsight Career respect to Chris but you can shed all the weight,but you can not get back those years.Dude has heart and focus..give em that.

    I must admit that i was very happy to see I.Ibeabuchi starch Byrd. Byrd was so full of himself at the time and needed to be put in check.

    That was brutal...all drooling along the ropes eating upper cuts ........Rene,Do you remember his fight with Arthur Williams?That was the most Ive seen Byrd hurt by a single shot...crazy.

    I look forward to Friday just to see where he stands.Very unique situation here.

    No, actually i missed that fight. I'm assuming Byrd pulled it out on points? What happened?

    Waaay Back, Boxed out in the first round and If I remember King Arthur came through with a straight Right with seconds left in the round. Byrd went flat on his back,stunned & badly hurt and was led back to corner.He came through ultimatley but if only for the bell Lol.

    Shaun isn't a world beater but he is a decent fighter, he will be a decent opener for Byrd, if Byrd isn't up to the task he could be in trouble, but he should win reasonably easily on the cards or by late stoppage
