Was Chris Byrd a over achiever or under achiever?

[StarshipTrooper]

Considering Byrd was a natural Middleweight I'd say he overachieved if anything.

Anybody that says Bryd was an under achiever is crazy, the guy turned pro at 160 or 168. All the same, if you say that he he was an over achiever.

Byrd was simply an amazing boxer, exhibiting the art in it's purest form every time out. The Byrds are a boxing family, they all fought and all were well trained. I fought his brother Pat back in the day,

Anyway, knowing the history of the Byrds I'd say that he did just as he was supposed to. The Byrds know their boxing, straight out........... Rockin'

I'm not interested in debating with someone with childlike ideas about what athletes are expected to suffer with. Too bad he isn't as brave as you are pecking away at your keyboard talking ignorantly about boxing.

Amen brother! How have we not crossed paths? ..........Rockin'

Overacheiver. And truthfully, I never thought he was all that good as a heavyweight.

Considering Byrd was a natural Middleweight I'd say he overachieved if anything.

Yeah, for him to have done as well as he did at heavyweight was a pretty impressive feat.

Byrd was living proof that size is a category of attribute and not of destiny regarding heavyweight efficacy. Damn good fighter. A true small heavyweight.
