“Ketchup or bbq sauce”Chris byrd “Wooooaahh pfff... that’s a tough one pfff... I don’t like to pick”
.Chris Byrd was the slickest boxer of his time. So underrated. Love for him to be interviewed, because he always gives of himself. Thanks Chris
rahachi and a hot mrs.
true
yeah okayyy buddy.
rahachi Chris Byrd fights were terrible
he was very skillful to be able to hang with the big boys tho
I miss the Byrds eye view. Byrd used to review every boxing fight on TH-cam right after it was over
Thanks! I'm bringing back some really great content and behind the scenes stories and breakdown my fights along with others to my TH-cam channel Chris Byrd Boxing! I just came out of chronic pain. Neuropathy in my left leg so bad I wanted to cut my entire leg off. I was suicidal and I'm really poor health. I really went through it but I'm back! And I'm back to get what's mine, a middleweight title! You can follow my comeback story here and on Instagram @chris_byrd_boxing!
I WOULD RATHER FIGHT 3 DEONTAY WILDERS THAN 1 PRIME MIKE TYSON
Steve Jobs everyone has a right to their own opinion.. However, your logic seems highly off! Styles make fights in which you should know that.. If you're going on Ortiz fight with wilder.. Than you pretty much know nothing..
Mike would be facing things he's never faced in his career ever.. Not only does wilder hit by far harder than anyone Tyson has faced.. But he👉🏽wilder also hits a lot harder than Mike-Tyson himself.. Whether you believe it or not!!!!
Although I'm more a fan of Tyson than is wilder.. I'm not just gonna get extremely biased and all delusional in the head, like you tyson fan-boys tend do all day everyday!!!! If Tyson comes in swinging for the fences and so happens to get caught just once.. He is going straight to sleep and out-cold no doubt about it!!!!
Nonetheless, Mike is more put together compared to wilder from a technical point of view.. Tyson would also have to deal with wilder's 6'7 in height, 85-inch reach, his highly unorthodox fighting-style..
And lastly, deontay's always unexpected💣monstrous💣right-hand, that 90% of guys never see coming due to wilder's unpredictable timing, rhythm, awkwardness, and odd-stance of launching just 1 deadly-shot straight-up out of no where.. brutally ending anyone's night in a ⚡️flash⚡️Literally!
It's just the way wilder sets-up.. It's very hard to get a reading on him for these exact reasons.. It may seem sometimes as if wilder's about to either " jab/faints, Or even side-step.. When in reality, he's already got the target locked-on his opponents a few-seconds ahead of time..
And what's even worse.. They don't even know it or ever see it coming.. & that's because of how unorthodox and unpredictable wilder's style is.. Very hard to read a guy who has such little-words to go on! Sorry.. But facts are facts!💣👏🏼💯
i like the way you wrote all that bs lol! deontay hardly even punches properly never mind punches harder lol! Anthony Joshua put eric melina away in 3 rounds and it took wilder 9 or 10 in a back an forth fight! iron mike tyson in prime would knock out wilder in 1 or 2 rounds that aggressive counter punching was too much for anyone
Dozina Love Lewis hit as hard if not harder than Wilder with 5 times the skill and timing.He also had to hit mike quite a bit for alot of rounds to get (The older Mike) out of there not to mention mike did not move his head as much then or throw near as many punches in combos.Just saying.
Tommy Hench First of all, Styles make fights.. Things AJ wouldn't be able to capitalize on.. Wilder would.. And vice-verse!!! But as far as you go with wilder vs Tyson.. That is by far much more interesting than most people believe!!!!
Ok, you say Mike would knockout deontay as if that's an actual fact.. Ok, well let's talk some!!!! When Mike was in his prime at 23.. He fought a guy named James quick tillis.. And prior to tillis stepping in the ring with Tyson.. He has been knocked out 3x's before his fight with Iron-Mike.. And guess what?? He went the distance with a young prime hungry undefeated Mike.. Despite being knocked out 3 times before by far lesser opponents!!!!!
In an interview a while back.. Tillis said that tommy Morrison's left-hook was much harder than anything Mike hit him with in a 12-rd decision lost.. He took mikes best power-punches clean flush on the chin solidly.. And was never in serious trouble!
Also, bone-crusher smith.. Who has been hurt quite a few times and stopped once before going against a prime-Tyson.. And he to went the distance with a prime Mike!!!!
Or how about tony-tucker.. Who also went the distance with a prime-Tyson and gave him hell.. And was tough throughout the entire fight! Or how about crack-head dust sniffing Mitch-green.. Who took all what Mike can dish-out and give.. And guess what...... He to went the distance and took mikes best-punches without flinching!!!!
Lol, Oh my goodness.. You kinda fans is the exact reason why I take boxing so seriously without hesitation! You can be in denial all you want.. But factsRfacts.. Mike was also hurt and stunned by a few of ruddock right-hands before stopping him a while later!!!!
And than in the rematch.. Guess what, he to goes the distance with once again.. A prime-undefeated iron-Mike Tyson! Lol, please.. Just please.. Keep on over looking wilder's chances against any version of Mike.. His former-opponent Tillis, who has been knocked out 3x's before facing Tyson.. went all 12-rds with iron-Mike with such little-trouble!!!!😧🤔✌🏻️
onetwokid nope, wrong.. Lewis was more put together in the skills department compared to wilder.. But as far as punching-power goes lol.. Please, just-stop✋🏼!
In conclusion, Tyson goes the distance with a guy who's been put to sleep 3x's before facing him.. But that same opponent " James quick tillis, gets easily handled and taking-out by glass-chin power-puncher " tommy the Duke-Morrison!!!!😳🤔😁🙄😉👍
Wilder is the hardest puncher i ever seen, i started boxing since i was 6 fought amateur in the states and in puerto rico, i never seen so many guys been taking to the hospital because of wilder. This guys knockouts is some scary shit. There is one thing you cant be trained on and its getting hit, Wilder fought a tricky south paw in Ortiz who was undefeated and has over 300 amareur fights with alot of power and wilder took his best shots like man. Im sure evryone had Ortiz up in the score card, but i knew one solid hit can change all that quick. Ibgive props tobOrtiz for standing up, he was never knocked down in his career until he went ran into wilder. The fact is that AJ is slow, he foot work and latteral movement is weak and he just come foward. He is a easy target for wilder, regardless if AJ is techinical because we fighters know fighting a lefty especially that can move slick is by far more difficult but AJ is right handed. I can see AJ throwing some punches here and there but wilder for sure will KO him when he chooses the round he wants too. AJ is just going to be a big heavy bag for Wilder. In this is why the wont ever happen.
Bro wilder hasn't fought any one good. Ortiz wobbled him at his old age even though wilder won. Shows you that wilder can get hurt. Tyson had more power and skill. AJ could win by skill.
Deontay Wilder is dangerous but Mike Tyson on his prime was so dangerous no fighter wanted to fight him. Mike would get a guy out of there within 1-3 rounds. There won’t be another Tyson for a very very long time. Mike was so dangerous in his day, in my opinion, people would STILL watch Mike’s old ass fight today. I like Chris Byrd he was a great fighter who was underrated in his time.
David Johnson yeah.. Mike was more put together in a technical point of view! But as far as power goes.. Wilder's power is by far superior in comparison to tyson's!💣👏🏼💯
David Johnson please wilder would beat Tyson in prime..tyson never beat any top guy...wilder has
Are you serious?! How do you think he is the YOUNGEST man to every win the Heavyweight Title. Man you couldn't go get a drink or leave the room without the fight being over. I don't think you know how devastating Tyson was in his prime. This man fought every two weeks in the beginning of his career. Wilder would get knocked out or very close to it.
David Johnson Tyson was a good-fighter with solid-skills and good punching-power.. However, although I'm a fan of Mike more than is wilder.. I'll have to say, that tyson's power was a bit overrated.. And I'm a big fan of Tyson!!!!
Still, You have to be a fool to think that Mike is just gonna run up on a guy who's 6'7 in-height, 83-inch reach.. Extremely very unorthodox with a solid-chin, great conditioning and stamina.. Also, being very unpredictable due to his awkwardness, timing, off-beat rhythm.. And his death-certificate right-hand, that 90% of guys never see coming due to wilder's shifty switching in odd-stances.. And the blind weird-angles he can throw from with a combination of speed, accuracy, force, timing/precision, and most of all.. His un-human like punching-power!!!!
Lol, A prime Mike was a dog who fought relentless with good-skills and good-power.. But, in my opinion, had they fought prime4prime.. I'll have it 55/45 in favor of wilder.. Or even 60/40 for wilder! I mean, I can go on and on with this boxing-knowledge!!!!💯
Lennox Lewis through his belt in the trash because they wouldn't let him fight Tyson.
Damn Chris' son is all grown up, I remember seeing him in the ring as a little kid when his dad got KO'd by Klitschko
Chris Byrd! I've known him since kindergarten. Flint, Michigan represent.
Thanks John! I'm bringing back some really great content and behind the scenes stories and breakdown my fights along with others to my TH-cam channel Chris Byrd Boxing! I just came out of chronic pain. Neuropathy in my left leg so bad I wanted to cut my entire leg off. I was suicidal and I'm really poor health. I really went through it but I'm back!

Wilder made a heavyweight end their career in sparring my goodness
facts check no he said an "old" heavy weight, get it right....
facts check Did Wilder Retired A Great Boxer Like Michael Spinks ?
Pure infectious enthusiasm! Who can listen to this brave fighter, and NOT want to see these fights?

Delusional Tyson fans hating now on Chris Byrd. All they want to hear is about the mythical Tyson who could never lose - despite the facts showing he lost in his prime at 24 years old. Haters! Very pathetic.
truth is, no one ever separated themselves from the pack like mike Tyson. no one has ever dominated to the point where the fans where complaining he was knocking his opponents out too fast. no one has never dominated world champions, former champions, Olympic gold medalist and made them all look like girls in comparison like mike Tyson. other so called greats, go tit for tat living a debate on who really won, while mike came in and completely destroyed his opponents, living no doubt who was king.
until he faced real A level boxer
heavyweight champions, former heavyweight champions, former cruiserweight champions, hall of famers, legends of the sport and Olympic gold medalist are A level boxers. the exact point I was making
Myron Hubbard Floyd Mayweather was the most dominant stop playing your self 18 years on top
But..but..Tyson has more KO's.....................over bums
Great video ES. Really good - I like listening to his perspective on boxing; he really loves the sport. Can you get him to come back on???

A strong jab is tougher then a strong hook
Ike Ibeabuchi ended this man's career with that Harambe uppercut.
Plenty Moula SIIIKE Remember watching that fight live on tv and until this day it's one of the most vicious uppercuts I've ever seen.
Ended his career? He went on to win the heavyweights belt a couple times fought and beat some good heavies.
Mike Tyson?! Chris Byrd is trying to rewrite history. Face Iron Mike, rather than Wilder?! Damn.
If u boxed n understand styles you’d easily agree with Byrd.
Lions And Truth Wilder has no style LOL😂
@@lionsandtruth2483 Sound good
Garry Miller That’s the point. He’s unpredictable and his one punch power is better than Tyson’s. Not better combinations than Tyson but that straight right one punch is. Lol 😂 crazy! And another thing is that they often get caught because they think that they are out of his range.
Hey Es keep getting those knowledgeable Boxers for interviews. Nice work.
Wilder wouldn't have had any chance against Tyson
Spud Spud naw jus one punch
Denzel DeShawn Trevon Johnson no way jose
What people fail to realize is, for as amazing as Tyson was with his aggressive but crafty style, Tyson never fought a tall guy as athletic as Wilder. Tyson was great at fighting tall guys but Wilder is supremely athletic for heavyweight... Tyson wouldn't have that advantage like he was used to. Mike is certainly more skilled but Wilder is so good at what he does, different outcomes are a real possibility.
I love Tyson but I hate all the Tyson fanboys saying hes the greatest boxer ever and would beat anyone
mrmajor247 the heavy weights of today are shite compared to years ago.
CHRIS BRYD WAS A SUPER MIDDLE WEIGHT,WHO NEVER SHOULD HAVE FOUGHT HEAVYWEIGHT
I'm bringing back some really great content and behind the scenes stories and breakdown my fights along with others to my TH-cam channel Chris Byrd Boxing! I also explain why I went from middleweight to heavyweight. I just came out of chronic pain. Neuropathy in my left leg so bad I wanted to cut my entire leg off. I was suicidal and I'm really poor health. I really went through it but I'm back! And I'm back to get what's mine, a middleweight title!

This guy is crazy. Mike Tyson is throwing combinations and he’s coming forward nonstop. All you have to do is avoid Wilder’s right hand and you’ll beat him.
WHO DID TYSON BEAT?
legendary boxer here we go. Tyson ain’t beat nobody I guess. Bruno, Ruddick, Holmes, Berbick, & Spinks I guess are all nobodies
Andre Gaudin the bronze bomber would sleep Tyson early
Its really that simple, huh? He just beat guy with 349-19 amateur record, and the guy had a undefeated pro record.
Mike Tyson knocks you out gradually Yes but Wilder can hospitalise you with a single shot, some guys bodies start popping around on the floor when he hit them.
thats a nice way of ending an interview
Good interview!!!
Love interview good work..he loves boxing good to see that excitement , one thing you forgot peoples comment I guess. they asked a fighter boxer champion EXPERIENCED who he would rather fight Wilder or Tyson I would listen to that though I watched all Mike’s fights as they happened live on tv Mike defiantly was athletic skilled well trained strong great natural ability...I think wilder power is probably unnatural (which I heard before) Bird’s comment got my attention plus STYLES! I’d listen beyond what I see! There is something to it!
Great ,Great, interview!!!!!!
Chris is a nice guy. From Austria best wishes!
Mad props on the interview. Big ups Chris Byrd

Shit this dude is Crazy as Hell Tyson was a Beast!
Briggs straight disrespect
I don't think Briggs even recognized that was Byrd.
Goodness..switch your questions up.
His ass drunk...prime Tyson a monster
LebronGoat whether you believe he's drunk or not.. Doesn't matter at all when he spoke nothing but the truth and gave his honest opinion!!!!! Mike is definitely 1 of my favorite fighters of all time.. And is very well respected by many.. But Although Tyson was a beast with good punching-power and impressive skills for such a small heavyweight.. Wilder will be far tougher than any 1 Mike has faced career-wise!!!!
Another thing is, Tyson is without question much more put together than wilder is technically.. But, wilder has enormous reach, height, is extremely very unorthodox in how he fights.. Has a solid chin with phenomenal-conditioning, and is without a doubt a much bigger puncher in power overall!!!! Tyson was a fighter who got in close using his peekaboo style, with good head movement, speed, good-power, but mainly.. His accuracy!!!
Nonetheless, 90% of the time.. Mike always threw punches in bunches while on the attack.. And most of tysons knockouts/tko's was from combination-punching.. Mike doesn't have that 1 shot lights-out cold unconscious punching-power like wilder!!!! Tyson was a great heavyweight with impressive skills/prime-wise, And good punching-power.. But Wilder's punching-power is superior amongst any heavyweight we've ever seen hands-down period, P4P-speaking!
And we have/had some great punchers like Norton, Frazier, Liston, Tyson, foreman, shavers, tua, joe-Lewis, tommy the Duke Morrison.. & now we have wilder who is top-dog amongst all heavyweights today or in recent memory!!!! although I'm more a fan of tyson than is wilder.. I'll have to say, had they fought prime4prime.. I'll have it 55/45-wilder.. Or even a 60/40-wilder!!!!
Don't get fooled into thinking that Mike would just flat out win without any care in the world lol.. Especially with that kind of superhuman/unhuman-like punching-power wilder possess.. Just pure f*******g freakish man.. Scary😦😮😯😧😁😳👏🏼💣💯
legendary boxer lmao
legendary boxer lmao
Samuel Young dude smh... I know that everyone has right to their own opinion and what not.. But truthfully, nothing you posted made any sense at all!!!! What do you mean " now you wanna see wilder face top-level heavyweights.. Than bring up whyte as if he's 1 of the greats or even remotely-close to the skill-set or punching-power of Ortiz!!!!
And please, just stop with this very noticeable biased talk, And your sick insane delusions! Why in the heavens of mother would wilder be scared/nervous.. Or punked-out shaking in his boots of whyte for uhh??? Smh.. I mean, people are quick to talk about boxing having a bad name & reputation.. But no 1 really talks about these extremely sensitive, and overly emotional biased insane delusional ass fans!!!
Everything you posted was just straight-up useless, and nothing more than a waste of time at best.. Speaking randomly about wilder getting rocked by-bums.. How the Ortiz win was good.. But he-deontay needs to step up and fight ELITE TOP-LEVEL HEAVYWEIGHTS.. Than mentioned whyte, and also included an highly absurd statement on how wilder is scared and fearful of the BODY-SNATCHER!!!!
Umm really???🤔 smh.. You fans are just truly sooo biased and sad when it comes to boxing nowadays.. There are rarely true boxing-fans who tell the truth and keep it straight-up honest regardless of the circumstances! Smfh..🙄
LebronGoat drunk or not nigga he kept it decent.
Damn, it was nice to see a HOFer give Montell the credit, b/c he never ever got the credit he deserved. Also, I wish we would've gotten the Byrd vs. Toney matchup at heavyweight. Would've been fascinating if James was in shape.
Bryd says that now pretty sure it would be a different story if he fought iron
Of course, Id also rather fight a legend then a bum.
btw, bring back Byrds eye view channel.

@@CHRISBYRDBOXING yooooooo this can’t be real!?!?
@@89thebestever 🥊🥊🥊☝🏿
I think there's some truth to what Rock Newman said about Tyson, that he was a great four-rounder, a good eight-rounder, and a decent distance fighter. If James Tillis on his best night could stretch Tyson the distance behind a jab, in his prime, than I suppose it's possible. But the problem is Tyson had great head movement and Wilder likes to bang, and his arms are too long to deal with Tyson up close. But Wilder's one-hitter quitter power is terrifying, and demoralizing. You can work up a lead against him on all three cards, make one mistake, and wake up the next day.
Byrd will go down as one of the greatest amateur n pro fighters in the history of the sport period. His word is very credible n if you’ve ever boxed it makes sense. Don’t no boxer wanna face an awkward 6’7”-6’8” long rangy athletic fighter with a right hand that could end ur life or change ur livelihood
The statement was he said he would whip a prime Mike Tyson's ass when Mike Tyson fought Evander and Lennox Lewis he was not in his prime had he been in his prime those fights would have been different as well it's just like Mayweather with Pacquiao Shane Mosley even with Oscar De La Hoya they was all past their prime or he fought them when they was not on absolute fire the fight happened after they all cooled off and slow down a step and they all still gave him a major challenge my point is imagine if all these fights happened when everyone was hot history books would not be the same and Dante Wilder's legs would not hold up
Shannon Briggs, Chris Byrd... wow! Super cool video.
Wilder's scale of movement does not compute. 2 strides to cross the ring. Super scary.

@@CHRISBYRDBOXING been there all along! Glad to see it's back and glad to see you're doing better in life.
Go and watch Mike Tyson fighting and then watch Wilder fighting....There is a huge difference. The most obvious is Tyson was a the best ever fighting boxer, his skill, power, speed, ability to bob weave and explode was incredible. He also fought the very best boxers throughout his era.....Wilder has a good right hand, is not a skilled boxer, has fought no great boxer yet, looked teriible against Ortiz who was nearly 40 yrs old.....The media hype this guy way way over his real ability.
Maybe Byrd is saying Tyson due to style/size? He was beaten up by Wlad twice and was well behind against Vitali. Those guys had similar dimensions to Deontay.
Tyson lost alot of fights, but all thos opponets he lost too never hit as hard as wilder.
Nicest guy ever!

@@CHRISBYRDBOXING oh wow glad youre doing better brother good luck and God Bless!!!
If this guy would have met tyson un his prime this guy would have flown out of ring .. after that fight hes name would have been .. SUPERMAN
Everyone used to say this until Tyson knocked them out within 1 minute of the fight... Nobody beats Prime Tyson, NOBODY! Completely Different Animal... These damn kids, no respect
except for douglas
Byrd was crafty & had pretty good defense in his prime. He gave a big guy like Vitali Klitschko some problems.
I honestly thought and still think that if Roy stayed at Heavyweight he would have beaten Lennox and Wlad, why he lost muscle mass to fight Tarver (who no one cares about) still baffles me because that effected him physically.
If you would rather fight Tyson than Wilder????? You a damn fool! Tyson in his prime was the definition of fear! I Love DW.....but he is NOT A TYSON....FACTZ!
He spent his whole career fighting these big heavy weights of course he would choose someone more his size.
Mike Tyson isn’t 5’9”. He 5’11”.
Goat78 He's 5'10. Tyson said so himself.
Drop the link to the video.
Goat78 www.malextra.com/sport/boxing/Mike+Tyson-55.html
Goat78 have you ever seen Mike face to face he's not 5'11"
Not 5”11 barley 5”10.
I love Chris's enthusiasm for the sport. You can see he's a consummate student of the sport. He was a very skilled boxer. However, he looks high as fuck in this interview. Lmao
If deontay could keep a prime Tyson on the end of his punches then maybe. But he wouldn't. Iron mike was unbelievably quick, compact and hits harder possibly bc of the shorter size n leverage. Good fight, I see wilder being the body he wants to catch
All you have to do is watch footage of David Haye sparring with Wilder, It just goes to show you that he can Box! All he has is that stick a dynamite for right hand, It may have worked against nobodies but what are you gonna do when you're actually in the ring with an Actual skilled fighter!
Wilder fanboy are getting delusional. Wilder wouldn't last 2 rounds with a Prime Tyson.
Wilder wouldn't last against any of the B fighters of the 90's.
+pugilist102 U clowns have never boxed to say something so stupid. Wilder touches anybody n he will with that right hand the fight is over period. Ortiz is more talented than a lot of those fighters in the 90s
Means nothing expect that his style works better with Tyson
The problem with boxing is there's too much politics involved in it and there always has been. Until boxing gets more like in the NFL or NBA or MLB or NHL, when you can decide a real champion by fighting the champion then boxing to get big in the United States again. More free fights on TV instead of everything on Pay-per-view or cable would also help grow the sport in the United States. Until then boxes going to be small here
Why is this guy not a color commentator?
I agree
Wilder is a very good Athlete and a quick study of the sweet science. I think, AJ is a more complete Fighter than Wilder. Wilder is getting better with every fight, as Wilder's skill develops and his level of opposition improves, I think this is helping Wilder. Wilder's Chin is improving as his as his Worrier mentality and Boxing skills and most importantly, level of opposition, improves. An improving level of opposition is very important to a Fighter's development, especially, when it's done correctly and at the right time!
lol no one knows boxing its all about liking 🤣 stop the bias say the truth stop it
Who’s the best fighter Tyson beat ? Please don’t say an old Larry Holmes either.(Dude was 38)
Wilder is more street fighting then anything... Very wild... I would be more interested in Wilder.. George Foreman.... Tyson wasn't known for being knocked out with one punch... You basically had to beat him down... Tyson avoids the monster punches and slowly breaks Wilder down... Keep in mind Every one was taller and supposedly stronger then might but as we say in driving speed kills
Prime Tyson probably stops Deontay earlier... BUT style make fights & I get Byrd's point. There would be nowhere to get away from Wilder's length & he didn't hit hard enough to keep him off. He probably wouldn't survive Mike either but he would be taller & prime Mike didn't always KO slick boxers that grabbed & ran (Quick Tillis, Mitch Green, & Tony Tucker)... Either way is an ass kicking but I get his point...
Mike Tyson was one of the most dangerous heavyweights in boxing history
Mike Tyson from the 80's is unbeatable in my opinion. Prime mike vs wilder would be like pit bull vs rag doll
I thought he was Barry bonds for a minute.
big worm nigga lol
TIME, has caused this man to forget how BRUTAL and VIOLENT Mike was in that ring!
I like wilder but even after the Ortiz fight,there are still questions, with 80s and 90s fighters instead of comparing power which all of them had, let's think about how he would have done against fighters of his build and reach,bowe,lennox,foreman,ruddock,i think he loses them all
I'm not a Wilder fan but his power is not to be underestimated. I think that's what Byrd is saying here.
If a club doorman was getting rude and aggressive and you could click your fingers and have 1 boxer appear like magic to give him a spark to the chin, that boxer SHOULD be Deontay Wilder!
I'll fight Tyson before fighting Wilder because Tyson would just lay down and quit.
bro look like he on that powda
Holyfield, and Lennox Lewis both would have lost to Mike Tyson had they fought him before he did his prison sentence. Mike was not there mentality after he did that time, and everyone knows that he beat Buster Douglas. The refs count was off that fight. He gave Buster more time to recover.
George Stobbart As good as Holyfield was (and he was very good) he did not want any parts of Mike before Mike went to jail, and of course the steroids helped too
George Stobbart LOL
What the fuck with Tyson's height?! Нe is not 5'10 or 5'9. The man is close to 6 feet
There is video where Tyson measures his height. And he is slightly higher than 5'11. Just little bit higher
Maybe that because of his body type and stance he was looking lower than he actually was
What a fool. None of these heavyweights would even be around back then, boxing was on another level in the heavyweight division. A 15 year old Tyson would KO any single heavyweight boxer around now within 2 rounds
It's easy to say that 20 years later, but I guarantee he wouldn't be saying that to a prime Tyson. Fuck that!
According to Eli he'd want to fight Tyson first THEN WIlder next
Thanks! I'm bringing back some really great content and behind the scenes stories and breakdown my fights along with others to my TH-cam channel Chris Byrd Boxing! I just came out of chronic pain. Neuropathy in my left leg so bad I wanted to cut my entire leg off. I was suicidal and I'm really poor health. I really went through it but I'm back! And I'm back to get what's mine, a middleweight title! You can follow my comeback story here and on Instagram @chris_byrd_boxing!
Man I’ve never seen anybody as scary as Tyson when he was At his best People was frightened of him who are you talking about Diante Wilder shit
he was trolling nobody would pick being hit mutiple times in a sec over a 1 punch wildur that sounds so dumb
Apparently none of you have fought in a ring. Let me explain he could slip the best the invisible man chris byrd but wilders reach he could not get around plus athleticism of wilder of basketball player plus its like he has to 10 pound weights in his hands
Listening to him talk,one can hear the Brain Damage in his speech
Tyson would have destroyed Wilder. Tyson is the 2nd best heavyweight of all time after Ali and top 3 P4P of all time.
Shut up
I had to click on this cuz the title cuz I can't believe someone was stupid to say it
Wilder ain't dangerous he ain't fight nobody..but we will see how dangerous wilder is with Joshua
Lmao wilder name don’t deserve to be brought up in the same sentence as mike tyson
Till this day Tyson is the most famous HW by people and experts
In his prime Once he land his left hook or right upper on his bigger opponent once they taste his power they usually used to act like avictims who is
In surviving mode
Not trying to win
Just trying survive
Chris byrd that fight with Holyfield is classic, he is a genius boxer!

@@CHRISBYRDBOXING I will follow on IG and leave a comment!!
Chris Bird is way to humble if he were to rost you, most likely you wouldn't even be offended
This guy says I don't pick, but judging by the way he talks he loves wilder, AJ wins easy
tyson has awesome skills but how as tyson fought in his prime who is prime????????
"39-0 40 knockouts" Sounds like an american stat
Not in his younger days😂😂😂😂
Chris looks good.
I'd rather fight somebody who wont hit me everywhere. Mike Tyson is 100 times more dangerous than Wilder. I'd fight wilder everyday for eternity before I fight Mike Tyson once.
Stanley 🤣🤣🤣
Opinions are like arseholes everyone’s got one
I would rather fight Tyson than Wilder aswell
Once again you can't tell the difference between then and than
PEOPLE SLEEPING ON THOSE CHARLO BROTHERS
Chris is now rocking the bald head. But any way guys from lower weight divisions always have had better skills than heavyweights on a whole. So no wonder Chris Byrd, Roy Jones, and James Toney were able to do what they did. But don't forget Evander Hollyfield, and Michael Spinks also came from lower weight classes to be successful at heavyweight
Tyson is coming for you with head movements. You won't last a round with prime Tyson. Wilder is very manageable, if only you can avoid the right hand. If you are as tall as Wilder and skillful, you stand a good chance to avoid wilder.
Steve Jobs but Tyson losing to a journeyman in Buster Douglas means.....
Steve Jobs Wow, what a hater. Ortiz being a Cuban amatuer standout SOUTHPAW, is a different animal. Don't disrespect Ortiz like he's some bum. He would give a ton of heavyweights issues.
It's amazing to me how people discount what Wilder brings to the table.... Is he more skilled and complete than Tyson, than Evander, than Bowe?... Absolutely not. But he is supremely athletic for a heavyweight... Something that no heavyweight from that era had seen. Wilder's height, reach, and extreme power in combination with his athleticsm is what makes him so dangerous for any heavyweights but especially shorter heavyweights. Stop this nonsense like all the fighters would run thru Wilder... It's ridiculous! Especially when considering that there were worse guys than Wilder that didn't get ran thru. Styles make fights....
mrmajor247 You speaketh the GODDAMN truth
Isa Akorede I did agree respectfully. Because Tyson was dangerous with BOTH hands. And he was decptively fast. Tyson knocked a man off his feet and he bounced off the ropes. Wilder has that right hand and he can crack. But overall in my opinion Tyson had more weapons and skill. I would say Tyson would knock him out in the 10th.
