I was hoping Lewis would come in lighter, but obviously he isn't taking this fight seriously, coming in at 256 1/2 lbs which is the highest he has ever been in a pro fight. This is not good. I smell upset. Last time Lewis came into the ring over weight (253) he was Ko'd by Hasim Rahman. ALSO.... I change my mind on the cut prop... i don't think there will be a cut, and this is why...

With Lewis being so heavy, I don't think it will take long for him to run out of steam... so he won't be popping his jabs. A cut will only come from Vitali, and now I don't think Lewis will substain a high enough punch output to garuantee this. In fact, I am looking at a quick KO like someone else predicted, and there should be NO cut. Good thing I held off... the cut prop moved up before the weigh-in... now "No" cut is at +115... i am going to play it.

Be careful...Lewis may very well be coming in heavier because he wants some weight behind his punches for a 6'8" opponent. What's more, I seriously doubt he would've taken a fight like this on such short notice unless he had a VERY good training camp.

The only value here is Vitali by KO: he's a live dog, but unless the Earth shifts, Lewis is knocking him out in five.

Actually, the reason why Lewis is taking the fight in such a short notice, is for he can get his WBC #1 contender out of the way so he'll be able to fight Roy Jones Jr. next.

So, shit could still happen. I see a quick ko now, no cuts.

Gonna win my money back. But even if I don't, you won't find me crying and wining like some people on this board. Pro up, dude.
