      its not good defence to backup stright back .

      its not defence if your getting hit while you back up either.

        Is it defense to move your head... into punches? Thats what Byrd did with Ibeabuchi. You know, even Whitaker got hit sometimes.

          byrds defence is good and keeps him alive against monsters that are
          a foot taller than him and outweigh him by 40 pounds. Vitali's defence gets him one of the worst cuts in boxing history.

          how could you compare Vitali's defence to byrd's?

            Going down with the ship, very admirable. Vitali was cut once, and all of a sudden he's Danny Lopez. I'm not saying Vitali is as hard to hit as Byrd, but Vitali makes you pay for the real estate.

              Vitali is a stiff robot who boxes worse than a young formen but with less power and passion.

              if it wasn't for universum feeding him stiffs he would have been stopped years ago.

                  he was stunned several times while taking
                  stiff shots from an overweight outtashape LL who used his jab to save himself by tearing that eye open more.

                  furthermore, while he WAS losing he was also cracking vitili with heavy shots.

                  it was really a coin toss who was gonna go down first.

                      the crux of the matter...lennox hit like a freight train when he loaded up and if hed had a less cautious way of fighting would of been even more of a beast than he already was.

                      maybe tyson or tua could hit harder but they didnt have the all round ability to touch lewis.hahaha byrd might of made lewis look bad like lewis and steward said but byrd still would of got whupped.

                      i think ill go watch ike take byrds head off again then laugh as byrd trys t convince the ref its a slip.
