I was scoring the fights as well, and in my estimation Both Ruiz and Chris Bird won because I had to deduct so many points from Golota due to the fact he steps on his opponents feet, and looks so very unpleasant.
Poor Golota. Everytime he was about to pull out a career important victory (Reddick Bowe, Ruiz or this fight) he either disqualifies himself or the judges rob him. He was able to hit Byrd quite a bit in this fight. Golota showed good timing in this fight
@ardradiva That's exactly it.The Tyson fight he actually did have a broken eye socket and concussion.The guy was bull strong but didn't like it if things weren't going his way in the ring so he just blows it.That's my take anyway.
Golota is an underrated heavyweight for sure. He was beating Bowe pretty easily before the low blows and beat Byrd I think. If they scored this fight in his favor it wouldn't bother me at all. Solid jab, cross and hooks, good body work and most of the time he put punches together well.
Well he was good no doubt.I understand him quitting in the Tyson fight as he was truly injured.Still clueless as to why he blew the Bowe fights with deliberate and very low tactics.If not for that then I'd agree with being underrated.
@@jenkemjones68 Mike Tyson beat most guys even after his prime. Bowe did too. I will neve understand why Golota threw a combination into the crotch of Bowe when he was arguably beating him badly. That is a question that will remain unanswered forever. There were a bunch of better heavyweight fighters throughout history, don't get me wrong. Gene Tunney would work shop on a lot of guys now and probably beat 95% of the division on any given night in boxing history. He is top 10 all time I think. 1960's Ali would destroy Golota and pretty much any man who ever set foot in the ring. No underrating there. Marciano and Tyson wouldn't stand a chance against those 2 in their prime.
@douglasroseveare7295 I totally forgot about Tunney.He was something in that era.But for Golata it certainly will remain a mystery why he pulled those antics when he did against Bowe.We can only assume while ahead on the cards,Bowe made Golata give 100% to stay ahead.He was big,very strong,and somewhat skilled.But if things weren't going his way,he would find a way out quickly.Foreman was the same and maybe had less skill,but he had a warrior's mentality.Far as I know Golata has still never explained why he did what he did against Bowe.Maybe he felt winded and disqualified himself before letting it show?Who really knows.
Probably paid to do that and have Bowe win. Golota was beating the hell out of Bowe and Bowe couldn't do a damn thing about it. Bowe was an established World HWC but couldn't beat Golota and that's why I think it was setup. Boxing is full of politics and mafias.
@32:36 these commentators are clueless. Byrd didn't "double-over" because of a body shot. He did because Golota was pushing his head down. It's typical for the bigger fighter to lean over on the smaller fighter to drain their energy. Normally the ref has to break it up but Golota backed away himself, and that's why he didn't hit Byrd as he was coming back up.
57:02 Golota should have been credited with a knock down. Golota wasn't pushing his head down he was pounding Byrd to the body and Byrd doubled over and put both his gloves on the canvas.
"Robbery" has to be the most overused word when describing decisions in close boxing matches. This was another very close fight that could have gone either way. Golota was busier, came forward and landed a bit more, especially to the body. Byrd landed the clearer, crisper punches. I felt Golota took most of the early rounds and Byrd most of the later rounds, but I gave the crucial 12th round to Golota and had him winning by one point. Stop with the robbery nonsense (either way); I have no issue at all with this being ruled a draw or either fighter winning a close decision. Lots of close rounds that were very tough to score.
Galota won this easily. As much as I detest his dirty tactics, he seemed by far the stronger. Byrd hit him with a few light combinations but never looked like he could hurt Galota, whereas Galota seemed by far the stronger and bullied Byrd around.
Every time TH-cam give me a Golata video my nuts hurt. It’s like the things literally remember watching him fight Riddick Bowe. He was before his time - no one knew any eastern boxers and Don King wasn’t gonna go out of his way to figure out how to promote a white guy from half a world away. Riddick Bowe was probably the most dangerous fighter with the most potential of the era (hate me if you want) and Golata had his number. Why he decided to throw full combinations at Bowes nuts is one of life’s many mysteries.
A draw was pretty accurate, but I really thought at the time Golota was going to get a close decision. Byrd's awkward, defensive style had been known to turn people off, ,judges included, and Golota actually fought courageously and foul-free.
Very underrated fight, such an interesting clash of styles. Entertaining to watch but a nightmare to score, personally I had Golota winning by a few rounds. I think Byrd lost a good amount of the early rounds by laying back on the ropes, he was countering well but just not frequently enough or hard enough to negate all the shots Golota was landing. To me it seemed like Byrd was a little over-confident in his defensive abilities on the ropes, he showed in the later rounds he could box well in centre-ring and had he done that more throughout the fight I could've seen him winning. Golota showed like he did in the Bowe fights that he was a talented fighter (Good jab, solid body puncher and physically imposing) but unlike those fights he fought within the rules and was unlucky not to get the decision coming off a bad run of form and inactivity. Golota remained consistently unpredictable as he was expected not to show up in this fight and surprised people by doing the exact opposite.
This was a good fight because of the two styles involved...Andrew didn't really have to worry about Chris power but to not get behind on the score cards & impose his size m,reach & height...Chris was very slippery on defense & threw quick counters...A big bruiser vs a much smaller natural boxer...
@@MyOneFiftiethOfADollar Golota was notorious for a weak mind and a lack of heart, on the other hand could pull out good enough performances that on a good night he could match anyone on the planet, like the time he had Riddick Bowe beat only to hand him a victory via disqualification. It's a puzzle, and people are entitled to discuss it no matter who they are and how unqualified they are to do so.
The thing is, Golota, throws arm punches, If he would've had better technique and throw punches with his weight from the ground up, he'd knockout Byrd in 3 rounds... Darealdeal
Byrd is such an interesting heavyweight to watch. Golota made it one hell of a fight and kept pressing forward but Byrd is so crafty, it’s hard to overpower him.
This is true Bird is an interesting boxer 2 watch , slick ,smooth & cool under pressure good moovment,& ring generalship(dude can flat out box)he does things that most people dream of😊💭
Golata was the effective aggressor. Byrd is a master boxer. Byrd blocked most of the punches and landed some precision punches off the ropes and in the middle of the ring. Golata clearly won
Golota won only because he had pressure... few clean hits... What did you want from Byrd, he is essentially a middleweight... but in heavyweight he baffled many... excellent defense))
Byrd was a bum that won a lot of fights on crooked scorecards. Just One ☝️ Example is Byrd vs Fres O (forgot how to write his last name). But when you watched jimmy lennon jr announce the results with the unanimous decision Byrd HIMSELF thought he had lost.. when they called his name as the victor he looked like he had won the lottery!
@@k1llersm0ke32 Byrd did not have crooked scorecards. He was never the money fighter, had to move up to heavyweight just to get a fight, and even then nobody wanted to fight him.

Funny how none of the commentators ever mentioned how Byrd literally staggered back to his corner at the end of one of the mid rounds. One sided commentary.
Golota Did Won This Fight Because He Was The Aggressor All Through The Fight. But Chris Byrd Landed More High Clean Percentage Of The Fight. That's Why They Called It A Draw🥊🤷🏾♂️
@@taurusauric2695 the only one that knows how hard a punch is... is the person catching it... some punches look like wall breakers but have little on them... and some look like nothing but are numbing... so unless you are mind linked with golota... you don't know how hard the punches were... and anyway... that's not what boxing is judged on... Frazier punches were harder than ali's... everybody jimmy young fought hit harder than he did... same for Willie pep...
@@lnaf i liked watching golotta, he was an exceptional fighter, incredibly talented, not unlike the more modern fury, able to duck and weave, very much capable of being world champ on more than one occasion. with "raw talent alone" he must have had an incredible trainer/coach.
Gollotta should of won he had much more hits. Don't understand this at all. Goes to show how crooked judges are. The probably didn't like him because of the way he is. He does have some issues but he should of won that fight for sure.
I think these Byrd vs Golota and Golota vs Ruiz fights showed one thing: *Neither Byrd nor Ruiz was a serious threat to Lennox Lewis* . (Lewis destroyed Golota in one round, beat Tua 12-0, took out Grant easily, etc.) (Byrd and Ruiz were walking around with titles stripped from Lewis near the end of his career, both claiming to be champion.)
So true. And some people said that Lennox Lewis was scared of John Ruiz 🤣🤣😂😂😂😂😂 and didn't want to fight Byrd because he was difficult to box and annoying. Lennox Lewis is the smartest boxer that i saw in heavyweights boxing with Muhammad Ali. When Lennox knew that je was against a dangerous fighter (David Tua, Mike Tyson, Tommy Morrison, Evander Holyfield, Donnovan Ruddock, Vitali Klitschko, Ray Mercer...), he took his time, saw their weakness, hit at the right time and when he could, finish you (he was a great finisher). When he felt than he can finish you without being in real danger, he charged you and finish you. With John Ruiz and Byrd who don't hit hard, Lennox would charged them and finish them early. Maybe he would be more patient against Byrd because he was a very good defensive boxer but i'm sure that he would KO both
@@mallokribi3326 Agreed 100%. I think Ruiz might have survived a few rounds with his dirty boxing style of punching and grabbing, and tried to make an ugly fight out of it, but Ruiz would be eating jabs constantly, losing every round on points, and eventually Ruiz would either get penalized for holding or Lewis would just get tired of it and pound him with uppercuts inside until he dropped. Ruiz was always leaning forward and coming in with his head down. Perfect for Lewis's uppercuts or his overhand right. I think Byrd survives longer, just because he was so elusive, and a lefty. I could see the fight going 8 rounds with Lewis jabbing at Byrd, winning points, preventing Byrd from getting inside on him, but remaining patient until the big one came. Eventually Lewis would hit him with something big and that would be it for Byrd.
I agree that Lewis would've beaten both Byrd and Ruiz but your reasoning for it, that he beat guys both Byrd and Ruiz struggled with or lost to, isn't concrete. You're forgetting styles make fights, just because Fighter A beats Fighter B and Fighter B beats Fighter C it doesn't mean Fighter A necessarily beats Fighter C. I'm not saying it isn't something you should consider when thinking about how a fight might've played out but there are plenty of examples to show how styles create unexpected outcomes, The Ali-Frazier-Foreman fights most famously. It's better to look at the attributes of the fighters individually rather than trying to scale them to each other based on common opponents.
@@danpolseno9728 I'm not sure Lennox really had chin problems, He got dropped by a clean right hand from McCall and got up but the ref waved it off pretty quickly. He got KO'd by Rahman in a fight he was ill prepared for also from and incredibly clean well-timed right hand that I think most HW's would've been flattened by. He fought plenty of other big punchers and was mostly fine, in his last fight with Vitali Klitschko he took some huge shots but ultimately gritted it out till Vitali's cut caused the fight to be stopped. It's a bit of a myth that Lewis had a glass jaw and likely doesn't factor in too much against Byrd and Ruiz anyway since neither were huge punchers
The deep bow was because golota was leaning on him , he is a dirty fighter. It wasn't from a punch to the body it was Golota pushing him down with his arm. If you at ring side cannot see why hes touching the canvas with his gloves your blind.. And the Ref needs REMOVING FROM THIS JOB. He never told Golota off for leaning all though this match. SHAMEFUL
If Andrew Golata would learn to smile and taunt his opponent, and just play the happy face game and not be so serious I think it would give him an edge on Larry's ill-gotten brother. Kidding.
Let's keep it 💯 Byrd did lots of really good things but in actuality he did bupkis. He got a few important decision victories that he shouldn't have gotten. He only lit up one guy and that bout was so boring that I can't remember who he fought. His courage cannot be questioned.
How the hell was this a draw? Byrd spent more time making faces and acting like a clown, he was the champ? We all saw what Lewis and Tyson did to Golota..Byrd was a joke
You know what I don't understand why everybody had such a problem fighting crisford all you had to do was go to his body for like three to four rounds and then he would have been washed up I mean I know he's got a lot of head movement and he's hard to hit to the head but you're not going to miss his body and you wear the body out and then and then you could knock him out I don't understand why boxers can't figure this out that's why you watch films so you can figure out how to fight a fighter and know how to win the key to Chris bird with body punches that's all you had to do
I can't figure this Golota guy out. Guy didn't have the heart of the mental strength to be at the level he was, which really shows how gleaming the physical side of his make-up had to be to make up for it
Golata was just a mindless punk. It was irritating as hell watching him fight back in the day. He would go up against the finest competition and thoroughly have them beaten, only to start throwing low blows, hitting after the bell, biting etc and then get disqualified. It is amazing to me that any elite boxer would even agree to fight him.
The judges didn't like Golota. He won this fight as well as the fight against Ruiz.
Inagree. Huge fans of byrd and golota. Golota should have got the nod in both
I was scoring the fights as well, and in my estimation Both Ruiz and Chris Bird won because I had to deduct so many points from Golota due to the fact he steps on his opponents feet, and looks so very unpleasant.

He got KO'd by Rahman in a fight he was ill prepared for also from and incredibly clean well-timed right hand that I think most HW's would've been flattened by. He fought plenty of other big punchers and was mostly fine, in his last fight with Vitali Klitschko he took some huge shots but ultimately gritted it out till Vitali's cut caused the fight to be stopped. It's a bit of a myth that Lewis had a glass jaw and likely doesn't factor in too much against Byrd and Ruiz anyway since neither were huge punchers

The deep bow was because golota was leaning on him , he is a dirty fighter. It wasn't from a punch to the body it was Golota pushing him down with his arm. If you at ring side cannot see why hes touching the canvas with his gloves your blind.. And the Ref needs REMOVING FROM THIS JOB. He never told Golota off for leaning all though this match. SHAMEFUL
It's legal to "lean" on your opponent, stop watching boxing
Any excuse is good...
These are not boxers , both rams.

Golota reminds me of the unknown kiltscko brother that had a different mom
How does the ref let Byrd get away with all his bullshit .
whwt a lie thiese judjes are fake it clearly golata won the fight because bird was not of his weigh he pushed and control bird easily
Yes golota did won
Great fight but: "Jesus put Don King on the earth to be the greatest promoter."
- Chris Byrd
Since Don King was theree he must have bought out the ref who gave a draw result
Zdecydowanie wygrał Andrzej
NAJWIĘKSZY ZABIJAKA W HISTORI POLSKI
Golota should have won
Even Byrd knew he lost..disgrace
If Andrew Golata would learn to smile and taunt his opponent, and just play the happy face game and not be so serious I think it would give him an edge on Larry's ill-gotten brother. Kidding.
very nays ❤❤❤❤❤❤
I never even knew they had fought.
Let's keep it 💯
Byrd did lots of really good things but in actuality he did bupkis. He got a few important decision victories that he shouldn't have gotten. He only lit up one guy and that bout was so boring that I can't remember who he fought.
His courage cannot be questioned.

Golota won easily. IF I was coach Id say what RU waiting 4 finish this chump off U think well get a fair deal!
Lewis showed what to do with Golota
Byrd borrowed Mike Tyson's shoes for this fight
I never realized how unlikable Byrd was.
Why?
Dirty fighting Golota😢
Golota had what took but there was some kind of disconnect
Byrd is a great Thec.He can be tumble down any Heavyweight. 😂
Yes Goleta won
Agreed
That is a Rob Golota won the fight
How the hell was this a draw? Byrd spent more time making faces and acting like a clown, he was the champ? We all saw what Lewis and Tyson did to Golota..Byrd was a joke
Golota should have won
This was scripted ?
You know what I don't understand why everybody had such a problem fighting crisford all you had to do was go to his body for like three to four rounds and then he would have been washed up I mean I know he's got a lot of head movement and he's hard to hit to the head but you're not going to miss his body and you wear the body out and then and then you could knock him out I don't understand why boxers can't figure this out that's why you watch films so you can figure out how to fight a fighter and know how to win the key to Chris bird with body punches that's all you had to do
dobra jakośc

Robbery... Andrew win!! Poland!!!
Hands down
my man wlad showed him how it was done
Golota looks like Nikola Jokic
I can't figure this Golota guy out. Guy didn't have the heart of the mental strength to be at the level he was, which really shows how gleaming the physical side of his make-up had to be to make up for it
Interesting 👍

Andrew Golota is just a waste a punching bag.
Golata was just a mindless punk. It was irritating as hell watching him fight back in the day. He would go up against the finest competition and thoroughly have them beaten, only to start throwing low blows, hitting after the bell, biting etc and then get disqualified. It is amazing to me that any elite boxer would even agree to fight him.
