February 28, 2002 - Baltimore, Maryland
Before
a banquet crowd in The International Room of The Baltimore Wyndham Hotel,
Isra
"Raging Beauty" Girgrah won a ten-round split decision and
retained her UBA Junior lightweight belt over a very game and gracious Tracy
'The Lady' Byrd. After a rather even two rounds of competitive action,
Girgrah opened things up a little when she landed a good right on Byrd
that dropped her to the canvas. However, the Byrd, who proved
to be a tough opponent got up to take a standing eight count. From then
on, though, it seemed to this observer that Byrd got rather busy the
rest of the fight, pressing most of the action by trying to bang with
Girgrah from the inside while Girgrah was boxing her way through the fight
with rather clean shots from the outside. Byrd did some roughing up of
Girgrah from the inside and managed to rock Girgrah with a few rights of
her own, but never managed to knock Girgrah to the canvas. The scorecards
were 97-92, 92-96, & 97-92 in favor of Girgrah. The judges were not
all looking at the same fight. This one had rematch written all over
it.
July 7, 2001 - Sky Ute Casino, Ignacio,
Colorado
IFBA Featherweight Champion Layla McCarter knocked down challenger Tracy Byrd late in the fifth round on her way to an unanimous decision. McCarter's defense of her title against Byrd, came only 30 days after she defeated Jo Jo Wyman to retain her IFBA crown and stay one of the most active champions in women's boxing.
The judges scores read 95-94 (Judge Ashe), 98-91 (Judge Basshaw) and 96-93 (Judge Martinez) all in favor of Layla McCarter. McCarter showed superior punching power over Byrd, but Bryd's inside fighting frustrated McCarter who held Byrd to diminish Byrd's effectiveness. McCarter knocked down Byrd with a good combo of punches late in the 5th round, which lead to a furious exchange of punches in the opening seconds of round 6. Ringside observers, called the fight ever close, and disagreed with Judge
Basshaw's scoring at 98-91.

Another female bout on the card: Tracy Byrd, 129 1/4, of Flint, MI captured the IFBA Intercontinental Jr. Lightweight Championship with a
unanimous Decision over Brenda Vickers, 129, of Tampa, Florida. The Judges scored the bout
98-92, 100-90 and 97-93 all in favor of the new Intercontinental champion. Byrd showed remarkable skill after a nearly 18 moth layoff. Byrd used her right to punish Vickers to the body with Vickers depending on her jab to keep Byrd away.
