Hasim has come in pretty heavy here, but don't forget he didn't have a full camp for this fight.I think he's going in there with a punchers chance.Wlad comes in around his average weight.

Rahman doesn't seem to be one of those people who does any better at a particular weight. He came in at 224 against Holyfield a few years ago.

He had a shirt on.



I agree that weight doesn't really matter for Rahman but he had his best performances at around 235-240 lbs.

I think Wlad takes this in about 5-7 rounds

thanks i already checked the pics out on the other site.

actually if you notice, Hasim wears 2 shirts, he's got a grey one underneath the white, and he also wears jeans, and im told boots as well. maybe some stuff in his pockets.?? maybe he's 7-8 pounds lighter than the scale indicated.

against a similar sized opponent in Kali Meehan, Rahman had perhaps the greatest performance in his career, aside for the first 9 rounds with Tua in 1998.

Rahman was 232 for Meehan. The more weight he carries the slower he is. Weight matters.

Fighters always seem to want to come in heavy against the giants so they don't wilt in the clinches.

When has that **** ever worked?
