    I think that was the more agile but wilder and not filled out enough Lewis. Lewis between 240-247 was artistic with his violence, physical and hard to move.

    Apparently Lewis was very sick before that fight. Not sure how true that is but I remember reading that Maloney wanted to pull him out.

    Zahid Kahut. Nice fella but really doesn't belong in a boxing ring.

    Thing is he's not, he just does a few things very badly. He puts combinations together very nicely and mixes up head and body well - which as far as I know is very unusual for someone his size. His problem is he doesn't take it seriously enough - motivated and in shape he probably belongs in the top 10-15 heavyweights in the world right now.

    When he's fat and disinterested he looks borderline domestic/Euro level. It;s a shame.

    Fury when he actually tries is pretty decent, against Chisora he did some lovely offensive stuff. He did a feint and side step and right hook to body as Chisora laid on ropes. He's got skills it's fact he's lazy and stupid about sport...
