      Sometimes when a fighter goes stale for a while, and looks to be there for the taking, they put on one last good performance, so it's possible. and when you combine that with the fact Wladimir may be overconfident, things could get interesting, you never know.

        Not really. Byrd knows what everyone else knows, though, so I think he's going to try and stay away early and not take punishment, even give away those rounds, in order to come on strong down the stretch and let it all hang out, hoping that Wlad gets tired. That's his only chance and he knows it. If Wlad is in the kind of shape he was in for the Peter fight, then it's all over but the cryin for Byrd.

          I voted no but now that I think about it everyone has a chance in boxing, miniscule as it may be in this case. Still, Byrd is gonna have a tough time on his hands because of his lack of power. I predict that this will be an easier fight for Wlad than the first one.

            Byrd lacks power and since Wlad's biggest issue is his china chin(He seemed to fix his stamina issue now that he's under Manny) it doesn't look good for Byrd.

              exactly. Byrd can't hurt him, I think Wlad may even KO him.

                there is nothing Byrd can do to win this fight except hope Klitschko tires in the late rounds

                  I doubt it. Unless Wlad tires himself out
