Chris Byrd said before the fight:
"Wladimir is not slow, but I want to see what he's got inside. Is he
still going to be fighting hard in the sixth round or is he going to be
holding and cowering and using his size to lay on me? I want to see who
has the most bullets in the gun.
"You will see a little man forcing a big man to fight him. Ain't gonna
be no boxing. I'll come out boxing a little, but we're going to be
thumping in there. I will try to trade with him. I want to test his
heart. If I can withstand his stuff, I will make him quit. I will go
forward. I'll be slipping punches, but I won't waste my energy boxing
and moving. Forget all that.
"I will thump with him and test his heart and see if he can fight in
the trenches. You have to make these big guys fight. I know I am in
shape. Are they in shape to fight me off? Can you keep up the punches
for 12 rounds? I know I can. I am cocky now. I got two guns, and they
are loaded."
"He can fight, but when adversity hits, he can't handle it," Byrd said
of Klitschko. "He handled it pretty well with Samuel Peter, but Peter
was inexperienced and underconditioned. Wladimir is a big man and may
try to overwhelm me.
