Mike Weaver vs. Chris Byrd

Post by scorpio83 »

12 to 15 Rounds Heavyweight Bout

Either Weaver caught Byrd with jabs and body punches off the ring or corner with left hooks and right hands to take a decision or vice versa for Byrd who used his southpaw jabs and counterpunches on the outside. What do you guys think and who do you got?

Weaver was actually offered 10 grand for this bout at the end of his career-he asked for 30 grand and lost the opportunity. Peak versus peak, Byrd on points.

Byrd wins a very comfortable decision.

I think Byrd would outbox Weaver more often than not. It's always possible he lands the KO shot on Byrd, but I think Byrd by decision is the more likely outcome.

Chris Byrd would give Mike Weaver a boxing lesson as long that he doesn't get caught off guard by a shot by Weaver.
