"Byrd a promotional free agent!
November 16, 2005 - Sources close to the situation have informed xxxxxxxxxxx.com that IBF heavyweight champion Chris Byrd is now a promotional free agent. "Free as a Byrd," said our source. Byrd was unavailable for immediate comment. Last night xxxxxxxxxxx reported that WBC heavyweight champion Hasim Rahman is a free agent as well, and Top Rank has made him a lucrative offer to fight Oleg Maskaev in early 2006. Don King and Judd Burstein were unavailable for immediate comment."
This is great news for Byrd, now he can get back to fighting on a regular basis until he retires.
