    His professional debut against Gary Smith was at 168.
    never saw it, so how long was it before he gained 30+ lbs to fight at heavy?

      around 2 years.

      He fought 4 fights below the heavy limit before breaching it.

        So it's a promoter thing again. I just hope that the Brigs/Peter fight happens. Briggs needs this fight to align himself as a serious contender in the HW division.

          when he moved up from super middle?
          so you consider hopkins a natural light heavyweight even though he's fought all but 2 fights at middleweight?

          you consider evander holyfield a natural light heavyweight?

          just because a fighter starts at a lower weight does not mean that is his natural weight. fighters change, they grow. byrd was very likely draining himself to make those weights. it was two fights then he was at heavyweight.

          chris byrd is a natural heavyweight, no doubt about it.
