    45 year old Tua will be just as good as 45 year old Foreman, so you can't count him out yet IMO.

          How does Chris Byrd stack up against the ATG Heavyweights like Louis, Ali, Frazier, Marciano, Holmes, Foreman, Tyson, etc....?

              He is not even close, but he made Vitali quit.

                The day you find yourself comparing Chris Byrd with bernard Hopkins is the day you realise something has gone wrong.

                Joe Calzaghe beat Chris Byrd in the amateurs BTW.

                    And how does Hopkins stack up at Middleweight against Hagler, Monzon, etc....?

                    That's my point. Hopkins would have a solid chance with any of the best Middleweights out there, Chris Byrd against any legendary Heavyweight would be a quick loss.
