Byrd is a big b*tch and Rahman is scared of Vitali

[joeboxer]

Why should Bryd have to pay to be in the game. Shouldn't they be paying him to use his image?

[Enayze]

well **** didn't Purity beat Wlad, so i guess he deserves a shot too.

Is Purity ranked anywhere? Wladimir is, he is no.6 in the IBF rankings. This isn't Byrds mandotory fight it's his free fight. He can't say Wlad isn't worthy when he already beat his ass the first time around. Not to mention the people ahead of Wladimir in the rankings all have fights coming up for instance
1. Vacant (Will belong to Barret but just came off a fight)
2. Rahman (Supposed to fight Vitali)
3. Whitaker (Supposed to fight Krasniqi)
4. Toney (Supposed to fight Ruiz)
5. Mc'Cline (Supposed to fight Calvin Brock)
6. Wladimir (Money fight!!!)

I would think the exact same thing. 250K to his CoPromoter for putting him in the game. The game itself already payed, he has to pay the other promoter who put the contracts together to get him in the game.

That is sickening. Goofy back in the show, Monty python, and Big Bird as well.

There are 20 heavyweights that deserve those spots. Those three are no where near potential champions.

Brewster is fighting Golota. Ruiz is fighting Toney, and Vitali is fighting Rahman.

Everyone is pretty much occupied, Byrds choices right now are, Wladimir and Jefferson. Im not sure about Barret because he got cut, if Im not mistaken a fighter who gets cut pretty bad has to take 3 months off for the wound to heal. Not to mention he fought only last month.

That leaves us with Wladimir or Jefferson. Which one would be a more logical choice? Jefferson who Wladimir demolished in the second round, and brings in no money whats so ever, or Wladimir who took down Byrd first time around and puts up the biggest paycheck.

If Byrd is bitching out with a fight with Wlad and takes on Jefferson instead than I really hope after he challenges Vitali immediately, or else im gonna lose a tremendous amount of respect for him. I lost a great deal already, but this will be the icing on the cake.

well i guess looking at like that he should fight Wlad, maybe take a lil pay cut though and fight he in the states. but Wlad looks like the only option right now, and who the hell is jefferson?

Jefferson is the man who Byrd claims deserves more of a chance than Wlad, and who he is most likely to vs instead.

I understand if Byrd didn't vs Wlad, but fought one of the champs, or some other worthy challenger, but the truth of the matter Byrd doesn't want to fight Wlad because he sais he is unworthy, but goes on and wants to make fights against fighters who are even more unworthy.

I agree, i thought maybe there was someone else he could fight, but since all the other worthy champs and contenders are booked this looks like the best fight unless he can get Peter.

Byrd has fought both Klitschkos, Golota, Ibebabuchi, Tua etc. and is now a coward? He was the champ and being dictated the terms. He had every right to refuse. Byrd is an American champ, and Wlad is only a draw in Germany, as he´s embarassed himself the last 3 times he was on American television.
