He may feel good and look in pretty good shape, but come on, don't get yourself hurt or worse trying to capture past glory.

I wish Chris Byrd luck. Hopefully he stays retired. Would not want to see him get knocked out and go back to need therapy again.

This is my Michigan dude, but

Come on Chris you look like a miniature crack head version of Shannon Briggs on that stuff! All the Byrds could fight though even the sister Tracy had her run, Tim, Little Ronnie But I remember when I thought Patrick was the most promising. Their dad had them in the basement like Joe Jackson had Michael singing in his sleep!

Middleweight, really?

Didn't Byrd get his ass kicked when he tried dropping to 175 many years ago when he was still active?

I wish him the best though, he was always fun to watch.

In the words Schaub- water we dune hair, B??!

[Larry the boss]

Remember how bad he looked when he dropped to 175 against Shun George?? he looked sick as hell and fell when the wind blew

If Canelo beats him, then he's a 5-division champ. Right?

[BigJoe999]

Good lord, Chris looks really old. I hope he stays retired, I always liked him.
