Ten Rounds is the seventh studio album by American country music artist Tracy Byrd. Released in 2001 as his second album for RCA Nashville, it produced the singles "A Good Way to Get on My Bad Side", "Just Let Me Be in Love", and "Ten Rounds with Jose Cuervo", which became his second Number One hit on the Billboard country charts in 2002.
The track "How Much Does the World Weigh" was previously recorded by Sammy Kershaw on his 1999 album Maybe Not Tonight, and "Wildfire" is a cover of Michael Martin Murphey's hit single. In addition, Byrd's signature song "The Keeper of the Stars" was newly recorded for this collection.
