PROUDLY PRESENTING CHRIS BYRD BEST BOXING FIGHT VIDEO ONLINE
Chris Byrd (born August 15, 1970) is a retired and former professional boxer. He is the former WBO and IBF heavyweight champion. His nickname is "Rapid Fire". Byrd began competing in the ring at age 10, and compiled an outstanding 275 wins in the amateur ranks. He was a three-time U.S. amateur champion (1989, 1991, and 1992). He was on the 1991 U.S. National boxing Team that became the first (and only) U.S. team to score a tie against the heralded Cuban team. Byrd won the silver medal in the 1992 Barcelona summer Olympics as a middleweight, losing to Cuba's Ariel Hernández in the final. Byrd turned pro on January 28, 1993, knocking out 10 of his first 13 opponents. Byrd moved up to heavyweight three fights into his professional career. Many have deemed Byrd's highly technical style of boxing (jabbing, fast hands, sporadic combination-punching, and evasive body movement) too boring for the heavyweight division. Regardless, Byrd was one of the world's best heavyweights from the late 1990s until his decline in the mid 2000s. Byrd remained undefeated for his first 26 fights, knocking off then-notable opponents like Phil Jackson, Lionel Butler ,cruiser Uriah Grant, Bert Cooper, Craig Peterson, Frankie Swindell, Jimmy Thunder, undefeated.
