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.
