Cong**** To Byrd!!! I picked McCline to win a close decision and was almost right. He just ran out of gas!!! Great fight by Byrd!!!

[TheGreat1]

i have always respected Byrds Skills, but he is still a *****, i bet 10000.00 that he would KO McCline, and he didn't. i knew Bryd would bet him, McCline is not on his level, Byrd fought a perfect fight, even better than Ali vs. Foreman.

I cannot stand Chris "WHOOO!" Byrd or his fighting style. He earned his victory tonight, however. I can't take that away from him. So he is 1-2 in his last three fights.

Man, I can't stand to watch him fight.

Chris Byrd!!! Wow that was the best fight on the entire card. Byrd was in trouble early but he came back strong and almost put down the big man.

Byrd deserved that win and he showed tremendous heart, sitting their trading with the bigger guy.

I'm so proud of my boy!

I dont like the way your boy clowns around like a kid sometimes, i have always respected him, and he did a hell of a job. Isnt it great when your favorite fighter kicks ass? Damn you Wladimir!!!

Yep he won. Most of the people expected it though, so there was no intrigue in that fight.
Even though he looked pretty good in the end it was more of a McCline's inability to close the show than Byrd's great talent. I respect him for actually winning this fight though. I think it was more of an unonimous decision than split. And BTW he could have looked better in the beginning. I guees father time catching up on him too

thats cool that Chris actually called out V.K. instead of saying, "I dont know,I'll have to talk to my team first"
