Wink Sort of on this topic ...

I have always wondered why Roy Jones Jr. didn't go ahead and add a cruiser belt to his collection. If he could beat legit heavies and was no longer strong enough to fight at light-heavy because of weight loss, why not split the difference and add some paper cred along the way?

Appears Byrd may be trying to do that after seeing what happens when you get in with a decent "superheavyweight."
