my hard work on friday
Dennis (newark): I was at your fight against oquendo and I thought you did a great job. However, when i saw the replay on tv, the announcers were bashing the decision. Why do you think they claimed that?
Chris Byrd: (4:24 PM ET ) I don't know what their problem is. They don't like me. I thought I won too. I got the decision, so it doesn't matter.
-----------
Dennis (newark): and i won 40 bucks from my friend on that fight...so, if you are ever in brick city, feel free to pick up your end :)
Chris Byrd: (4:27 PM ET ) Dennis, I want it all in nickels!

[this was after he said his favorite meal was hot wings]
Bleu Cheese Dipping Sauce: Hey, where's the love?
Chris Byrd: (4:32 PM ET ) Oh yeah, my bad. All of it, and don't forget the celery and carrots!
------
[this was after he said he didn't like chris rock]
Dave Chapelle: Do you like me at least?
Chris Byrd: (4:34 PM ET ) Oh yeah. Dave Chapelle, you're the man dawg!
-----
Adam (redbank): If you could get through a fight with little to no effort (say 3rd round knockout, no injuries on your part), how quickly could you turn around and fight again?
Chris Byrd: (4:42 PM ET ) Realistically? A week later.
Chris Byrd: (4:42 PM ET ) Schedule wise ... six weeks.
------
Elaine (San Diego): Are you saddened by the fact that retired boxers can't stay retired? Why can't they just let go? Money, ego, both?
Chris Byrd: (4:45 PM ET ) Everything. I agree with you Elaine. Stay retired. That's why they call it retirement.

[and this one was for rob neyer]
Spelling Police: That's twice already you made fun of someone for a spelling mistake. At least they can say the names without a huge lisp.
Rob Neyer: (11:28 AM ET ) Actually, the first time was for a grammar mistake. And if my lisp is so huge, then how come I'm on TV and you're not?
