Heavyweight contender Kevin Lerena is expecting to have a dangerous fight in his new division in the coming months.
Lerena did as much as he felt he could in the cruiserweight division, where he retained the IBO world title six times. He had issues making the cruiserweight limit of 200 and decided to make the full leap to heavyweight.
The South African boxer is hoping to find the same success as other cruiserweights who made the heavyweight leap - like Evander Holyfield, David Haye and Oleksandr Usyk.
