    That's 5lb heavier than he's ever been which was against chisora and he was shattered after about 7 rounds

    His heaviest before that I can see was vs John McDermott II when he was 19'4.

    He has put on quite a bit of muscle since then though tbf, so will look better than you expect.

    Does anyone know what he was weighing 5 days before the Haye fight weigh in, the day Haye became 'injured'?

    Yes,he had a track suit on,and had something under his top.It wouldn't surprise me if he had a few coins,etc in his pockets to appear heavier,then on the night surprise a few people.Hell be a couple of stones heavier than Abell possibly,but don't forget he's about 4 inches taller.I don't know where people are coming from who go on about his weight.Hes never been a fat heavyweight.Chisora gassed in their fight,not him.He seems too be able to keep fighting in the late rounds better than most,an ability I don't think hell need on Saturday.Five rounds max.

    There is a reason that he weighed in fully clothed.
    He is either in terrible shape or excellent shape.
    His face doesn't looked fat, I reckon he maybe looking to surprise us all.

    As I said, he has 100% put on muscle.

    Weight is not the best gauge to fat.

    Body Fat % is.

    Contrast his face today at 19'8 with his face for the Pajkic fight where he was fat but actually weighed 18'5.

    Thats exactly what I was getting at Lee.Abell looked in good nick.Fury say,2 stone heavier,but 4 or 5 inches taller.Although clothed,when they stood together,I think I could tell that he wasn't significantly fatter.I think he will look in good nick,maybe not quite like pre Haye,but good.As I say,he's not Tony Tubbs.

    He said in the corner in about the 8th round against chisora that he was ****ed. He's been improving fight after fight so hopefully he's in decent shape and we get chisora vs fury 2

    Your probably right Tel, but it is disappointing how he has let himself go, considering the shape he was in for the Haye fight.

    yeah but i can understand it mate.

    I bet Peter put him through hell for that training camp in Belguim away from family friends and any luxuries.
