    Best Chris Byrd Performance

    Chris Byrd's an extraordinary boxer, who I feel is in the wrong division. I get the feeling he could well have been a dominant champ at light heavy or cruiser. Instead he merely hangs on against men too big for him.

    Byrd's done a few mediocre performances, but does anyone have any faves that show the best of Chris Byrd?

    For me, the high point was the Tua fight. Byrd was outstanding, the way he escaped off the ropes, speared Tua's face and even sapped his body with the straight left. He barely got hit and really stung his man.

    His fight with Ibeabuchi(Im dead ****ing serious)...sure he got stopped for the only time in his career but he was fighting a super human monster that night that he managed to confuse and dodge for a few rounds.

    That version of Chris Byrd even in his worst defeat was the best version of Byrd I ever saw-he just ran into an incredibly special HW.

    BTW-I was there, best fight I have ever been too!
