Why Chris Byrd should fight Wladimir Klitschko

[trevorjulien]

Its funny because I thought that Ray Mercer would of been the 1st to knock Wlad out.

Ahhh like getting their brothers to avenge their losses?


Come on.

By your own logic, Wlad should be fighting Sanders and Brewster again before there's any talk of him fighting for a title.

Byrd did lose to Wlad years ago, but since then has won and defended his title several times without getting KO'd by fringe contenders.

Wlad needs to earn his way back into the picture. There's no denying it.

Sanders refused to give Wlad a rematch until just recently, and now it looks like he is retired. Even though Brewster also refused a rematch with Wlad, Wlad should try to get a fight with him once Byrd ducks him again and if Golota beats Brewster. That's a very big if.

Brewster was in the right place at the right time.

Once again, I fail to see how this is difficult to understand.

Wlad doesn't deserve a title shot.

There no way that fight would even be sanctioned at this point.

I know it makes you feel better as a fan to say Byrd is ducking him, but it's undeniable that Wlad does not deserve that fight at this point.

Wladimir wants very much to fight all the best fighters. But, all of the best fighters do not want to fight Wladimir. Why? It is because they have to put on the boxing gloves and they have to risk losing their belts and careers if they fight Wladimir.

Wladimir looked very good and confident! I hope the fighters who have belts will be forced to be brave and fight Wladimir soon.

The only way that's going to happen, is if he can work his way back up in the rankings without being knocked out again by a sub par fighter.

We aren't even talking about Wlad deserving a title shot. You are the one saying Wlad should rematch Sanders and Brewster even though both of them refuse to give him a rematch. I'm simply pointing out the obvious.

No, I was responding to the guy who cut Byrd down for not wanting to avenge his loss, when Wlad had his big brother
avenge two losses for him.

Hey, I won't disagree with that at all. But I never said Wlad was a champion either. He's not and never was. Byrd wants to be something different...well to do that he has to fight Wlad again after being his party boy the first time around.
