View Full Version : Chris Byrd: "Vitali Klitschko is a Joke"
Rick Reeno 12-13-2004, 12:41 PM Chris Byrd in an interview with Boxing writer Tim Smith, called WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko a joke. He said that Danny Williams was nothing more then a punching bag and he hopes to get Vitali in the ring again. [details (http://www.boxingscene.com/?m=show&id=409)]
The1God 12-13-2004, 01:04 PM Though I agree patially with Byrd's comments, VK is no joke. I think he would destroy Chris worse than the first time. VK is a better fighter now. I would like to see Byrd take on Williams!!! I don't think he would go through him the way VK did. Hey Chris, Mccline isn't a big name either and he almost whooped you up.
chris byrd should be a back up dancer for justin timberlake. he was getting owend by vitali. he talks big for a small dude

Lewis was as well, all that matters is who gets the W when the dust settles. Byrd gave VK his first L on his record. And Montel gave Roy an Lbut Roy erased it with an easy ko, VK needs to do the same. We all know he can too.

If he would only show the fire where it is needed, in the ring!

Big talk from a guy who got his ass stomped by the younger with no chin who collapses after 4 founds. Plus, Vitali was punching Byrd's head in until he quit (yes he quit and he should be ashamed for that forever) Chris "WHOOOOO!" (head shake) Byrd needs to remember who is the joke heavyweight. Heavyweights who slap like a girl are funny.
Just my thoughts.
paulmmv 12-13-2004, 03:45 PM i cant belive byrd would say that knowing vitali is clearly a better boxer then he is

why do you even post this garbage? Chris Byrd would be nothing without Don King. Byrd was extremely lucky that Vitali decided to quit there was no way in hell he would have won that fight and he wouldn't win if they had a rematch. Byrd was completely manhandled by both Klitschko brothers. Furthermore, Byrd lost his last three fights but was given gift decisions. If Byrd was to fight Vitali in a rematch he [byrd] would get KTFO. Vitali still hasn't been able to get over the stigma of being called a "quitter" even though he has wiped the floor with virtually all of his opponents. There is no way Byrd would even make it to the end of the fight.

You need to get a grip, it was an article which states the facts and quotes of figures within the sport.
There has been about 20 pro-Klitschko articles this week alone. We are not a website that hangs off the nuts of any fighter or organization, we will always post diverse views, news and opinions.
DarthJul 12-13-2004, 04:13 PM The only 2 reasons Byrd would get a shot at Klitschko again would be because VK wants revenge for his first loss and to unify the titles.
At least VK's wins are without any doubt and very convincing.
Boxingscene does a good job reporting things like this.
I like to read them.
I think anyone who calls VK a quitter is nonsense.
Are you a Doctor?
He may have elected to stop the fight, but what if he didn't? What if he got that 'precious' win over a weak Byrd, but then never got the chance to be the WBC HW Champ, due to a permanent injury? Didn't he tear his rotator cup early in the fight? He decided to live and fight another day. Is that stupid and lacking of heart or is it intellegence and preservation of his body?
:confused:

yeah, but VK didn't fight top 5 fighters, like McCline, Fres, and golota. Yes fres was top 5 when he fought Bryd.
byrd is a good guy, interesting style, illusiveness and all...
but there's no way he can take VK unless Don King corrupts the bout IMO
DarthJul 12-13-2004, 05:06 PM no he fought Kirk Johnson (at that time top 5, but yes, out of shape) Lewis (best hvy of his generation), sanders (no1 contender and rightfully so in my opinion)
Mccline was beaten by Wlad, Golota who did he beat to get a title shot and Fres, good boxer but not really a top 5. Top 10 yes.
I must say, Byrd is a hard boxer to hit, a diffucult opponent. But not a world champ.
Neuraxis 12-13-2004, 05:29 PM Lewis was as well, all that matters is who gets the W when the dust settles. Byrd gave VK his first L on his record. And Montel gave Roy an Lbut Roy erased it with an easy ko, VK needs to do the same. We all know he can too.
Roy wasn't owning Griffin though.
Neuraxis 12-13-2004, 05:33 PM yeah, but VK didn't fight top 5 fighters, like McCline, Fres, and golota. Yes fres was top 5 when he fought Bryd.
And Williams was top 10 when he fought Vitali and Meehan was top 10 when he fought Rahman. Either way they are all not very good.
dempseyfire 12-13-2004, 05:48 PM Byrd was not getting "manhandled" bu Vitali. People should not comment about fights they haven't seen. Vitali was winning the fight but it was more due to Byrd's almost completely defensive strategy then Klitschko beating on Byrd. Byrd did get a beating from Wladimir but that's a different fighter and a different fight. I would give Byrd a chance in a rematch with Vitali . . .
It could be interesting...
but Byrd can't dodge his way to a decision... he'll have to land punches eventually, and when he tries, VK's reach might keep him at a distance.
but Byrd can cause you to miss a lot, maybe even jabs..
chris byrd should be a back up dancer for justin timberlake. he was getting owend by vitali. he talks big for a small dude
......Ruiz and Byrd realize that they are nobodies and that big V holds all the cards. They are trying for a big payday with Vit. Why do you think they are talking so much smack lately. I would be really impressed if Byrd said, first I wanna kick his brother ass and then I want Vit. lol lol lol We know that would never happen.

AMEN to that RicK! ;)
Ukr_Alex 12-13-2004, 09:41 PM Why is Byrd talking?
How can he say anything like "Klitschko is a Joke"
The guy fought a 10 round fight against Vitaly, and was ****ing his shorts the entire time. He didnt take his hands of his face ever...he was defending all the time and then in his annoying "wood pecker" style would throw a jab or too. He was loosing on the cards big time, and the only reason Vitaly quit was because his sholder was actually hurt. HE GOT A SURGERY RIGHT AFTER for Chirst sake. It was said if he contined to fight he would never be able to fight again. So after this you call the man a quitter :) okkkkkkk
So why is this Bird going around talking trash just like Toney?
I just hope Vitaly goes for a remath and knocks Byrds teath out. Because I just lost all of my respect for the guy.
Hunna 12-14-2004, 01:26 AM why is there so much dislike to Chris Byrd? yes, Chris won against Vitali becos VK apparently had a torn rotator cuff. Remember, Chris took that fight against Vitali on a weeks notice!!! name any heavyweight who would do that on a weeks notice against VK?
i am not a Byrd or VK , i just tellin it how it is, peace :)
freirui 12-14-2004, 03:56 AM **** you chris byrd,go the hell.

Jeez Rick, you notice your new Custom Title ?/
Ey P4P how much did they charge you for that ??
I gotta admire your balls man :D

That's pretty hard talk from a man who has never knocked out anybody :D
Let me get this straight Byrd (hands of feathers) question VK for not knocking out DW.
tys0n 12-15-2004, 06:39 PM byrd is really pissin me off. i wish he would shut his mouth about klitschjo. he sounds like a girl. i hope he fights VK and gets his ass handed to him.
Boxer2005 12-15-2004, 10:37 PM I like the first quote from Tys0n's signature..cool.
Kimmy 12-15-2004, 11:26 PM I don`t care that Klitscko is the best, he is the best and i`d pick him to beat Byrd in a rematch but Byrd did beat him and on paper its a 9th rd TKO. Byrd has every right to ask for a match and if Vitali declines....well maybe it wasn`t such a fluke as once thought!
BoxingPrincess 12-16-2004, 08:48 AM vitali is a joke...he shouldn't be wbc champ...as soon as he fights Byrdy than we'll have a real champ
vitali is a joke...he shouldn't be wbc champ...as soon as he fights Byrdy than we'll have a real champ
....I think you meant real chump. How can anyone take a guy seriously that looks like a transvestite? Tom Arnold calling him Serena Williams was hilarious. Please tell us how Byrd will beat Vitali when he was basically getting shut out in their first fight before the injury. Anyone who thinks Byrd can seriously beat Vit doesn't know jack **** about boxing. Stick to the young girl stuff like keeping a journal, listening to Britney Spears, and arguing with your parents.
Neuraxis 12-16-2004, 05:02 PM vitali is a joke...he shouldn't be wbc champ...as soon as he fights Byrdy than we'll have a real champ
Byrd barely beat McCline and Oquendo and they are trash. I wouldn't get your hopes up on Byrd beating Vitali if I were you.
suetombo 12-16-2004, 07:47 PM vitali is a joke thats for sure.. hes slow and predictable and only throws 2 punches at a time max.. bring on the old tyson and it will be a 1st round KO
Dr.Depravity 12-16-2004, 10:52 PM The only joke is the fact that Byrd of all people, is talking ****. Byrd knows he cant beat him. He wants a big fight. Vitali was beating Byrd like a drum in that fight when he hurt his shoulder. After Vitali quite he said something to the effect like " I want to get my shoulder checked out, and when Merchant questioned his heart he replied. Ill be back and I will be heavywieght champion of the world." Sounds like he did it to me. Byrd doesn't stand a chance in the rematch.
vitali is a joke...he shouldn't be wbc champ...as soon as he fights Byrdy than we'll have a real champ
Your such a fool, Byrd will get his ass whopped again, probably even worse than the first tim since VK has improved a lot and Byrd`s biggest ace his speed isnt what it was.
moochi 12-17-2004, 06:52 AM he did say that but i am sure he didn't mean it........even though vitali has a huge size advantage over the rest, we have to come to grips with reality and that he is the champ.......and will remain to be so until someone else dethrones him.

That's right until somebody beats him. And besides don't get lost people check who's talki'n here . . . a jealous guy and his DAMN promoter, DON KING . . . do you people still believe the words that comes out of King's mouth?
Just a strategy to "sweetened up the pot" . . . ****i'n KING is at it again. :D
Again???!!!!!
:confused:
When did He stop?
:D
he's kinda like a young tot... with three toys in his hands..
mom says i can only take two to Mickey D's...
which one do i toss aside first?
:eek:

LOLOLOL
YEAH! I wanna see that live video... anyone got that fight post?
:cool: :cool: :cool:
grayfist 12-17-2004, 09:33 PM The only joke is the fact that Byrd of all people, is talking ****. I have read somewhere that Byrd lives accross the street from Dong King's. That makes King not only his promoter but his neighbor as well.
King must have rubbed off some on Byrd. ;)
freirui 12-17-2004, 10:55 PM Chris Byrd is so full of ****.I hope Vitaliy kill the idiot.

You are the one who needs to get a grip. The garbage you posted had nothing to do with facts - only opinion. This has absolutely nothing to do with "hanging off of someone's nuts" - as you so eloquently put it. You are a journalist and you should start acting like one. If you are going to post articles at least post something relevant. You must have a serious hardon for Klitschko don't you? Just because there are a lot of positive articles about him you feel the need to post this garbage? So let me see if I'm right... just because someone posts a positive article about someone they are automatically on their "nuts?" If you really believe that maybe you should find another profession.
I think it's great to hear what Byrd has to say about VK, since the only fight that would be great for Byrd is with VK, and it's cute to see them build up animosity fake or real..
lighten up newbie please :rolleyes:

i'm not a fool...i'm a nuthugger...there actually is a difference believe it or not ;)
Atwa_66 12-20-2004, 08:30 PM Chris Byrd got soooo lucky their last fight
Vitali Owned him all fight
Byrd got a gift when VKs shoulder got messed up
Chris Byrd shouldnt talk so big, or talk at all
Vitali would destroy Byrd again
But this time he would get to finish the job :)

15 poster going to try an tell Rick off? LMFAO
Hey Miniwheat, you don't like it, then get out.
I can see you have angered some people already with your red bar
Teaching Rick to be a journalist, he don't need your help
I'd like to see you run a site like this
Untill the day that you can, calm down, and back off
Dema Ironfist SteelHammer 12-22-2004, 11:27 AM Vitali is definitely, the great Champ and not less than that, Byrd is a bum, which is jealous that Vitali have better belt, Byrd has too big mouth and he should open it less often , Vitaly wil no doubt knock this bum out and shut his mouth forever.
Go, Vitaly!!!!!!!!!!!!11

Miniwheat you are a moron. How is it not news when the other major titleholder has something to say after his main competitor had a fight? That's part of sports rivalries and sports journalism. It wasn't a factual article you dimwit, it was an article displaying the opinions of Chris Byrd. So if you don't like the article, take it up with Chris and not with Rick, who made this whole site possible. And maybe Byrd would even be obliged to kick your ass all around the ring if you had the balls to go a few rounds . . . .
Dema Ironfist SteelHammer 12-22-2004, 11:39 AM Vitaly is Champ and Burd jsut jealous, after both Vitali and wladimir pinballed him all over the ring, he got lucky once with Vitaly, but Vitali's shoulder had already hilled and the lighting never strikes in the same tree twice, which Vitaly proved when KO Williams, Byrd will be out if fighting Vitaly![B]
Miniwheat42 01-18-2005, 01:24 AM wow - you are bloody brilliant. All you can do is throw insults around like a spoiled little brat. I guess it is true what they say... ignorance is bliss, isn't it? Have you even graduated from highschool? Your mother must be so proud...
LittleBigMan 01-18-2005, 01:29 PM Byrd can talk as much **** as he wants until Klitschko avenges that loss
