If Vitali and Byrd had an immediate rematch, who would have won?

Vitali or Byrd? I seen some people on here say Byrd was giving Vitali problems through-out the fight even though Vitali was winning the fight before Vitali decided to stop the fight and let Byrd win it. I never seen the fight, any truth that Byrd was giving Vitali problems and frustrating him?

Byrd couldn't win a round against either of the Klitschkos. A healthy Vitali continues what an injured Vitali couldn't in a rematch.

[Boxing Scene]

Byrd was losing almost every round, and the scorecards reflect that.

Why are there so haters on this website who said Byrd was getting to Vitali and thats the reason Vitali quit then? Are they just haters?

Byrd made him look silly on a few occasions but Vitali was clearly winning

Vitali would have kicked his ass & this is exactly why he took so much heat for not fighting him again after he quit.instead little brother fought him.he would have never taken as much heat for quiting if he had a rematch asap & proved he had a braincramp.since his brother cleaned up the mess it looked pretty bad & his reputation took a beating.

quitali retired on his stool because byrd was walking him down,making him miss and hitting him more than than what quitali expected.due to all the mismatches and outmatched opponents he had thrown his way,Vitali didnt know how to deal with someone who actually put up a fight.when byrd gave him all the fits that he did he panicked and quit.



in a rematch? byrd definately would have done better had he been given alot more time to prepare as he came in as a very late replacement.byrd had Vitali all figured out by the time he stopped vitali.


Its a shame that vitali ducked a rematch

[infamous larryx]

same person who was winning the first fight..vitali

[Dan Vida]

Quitali was so confident in beating byrd that he took an immediate rematch and proven to everyone that he was the better man.......oh wait he didnt did he? He went and got his little brother to do his fighting for him.

Well, if they had had an immediate rematch then Vitali's shoulder would have still been fooked and he would have probably lost the fight. If they had had a rematch as soon as Vitali got healed up then I think we all know who would win. Would have been by UD though. Byrd was tricky as hell back then.
