    NO HE DOES NOT WEIGH 285 that's what he weighed for his last fight not what he weigs at the moment so don't worry. I don't expect him to be in great shape for the fight nor do I think he wins but I doubt that he will be so heavy

    :rofl

    He hasn't been that low since the Holyfield fight, and before that he was usually in the 230's. He was in the 220's EARLY in his career. He will not come in that low.

    I dunno. I think the dude hits hard. 42 KO's I think he has in 50 wins. Not shabby. And Meehan would have gotten laid out eventually. That fight was painful to watch.

    Rahman's resume is littered with Class D opponents though and those are the ones he sparked out with legit KO's. Other than Lennox he didn't spark anyone worth a crap really.

    I expect Rahman to do what he has done the last 5 years in big fights and that is simply shoe up for a paycheck.

    This is going to be patheically one sided.

    He's hurt or stunned a lot of the big boys he's fought (stunned Holy a couple times, put Tua down in the rematch with a legit punch, I think he hurt Ruiz in their fight, etc)

    One thing I never understood was how Maskaev never got seriously hurt against him but would get blasted by other fighters. It's like he had kryptonite or something. Rahman could not hurt him no matter what leather he landed.

    yeah, that baffles me. Mascaev has the worst chin of any heavyweight to win a piece of a crown. he has 8 losses, all by KO. beating rahman 1 time was a fluke, 2 times is just a downright embarrassment

    Well I certainly do hope Rahman is looking after his health, still I'm hoping he has more than a punchers chance.

    Rahman is the most heavily recycled heavyweight in the past decade. How many chances does this guy get? It's ridiculous. Every time I think we've seen the last of him, some bull**** organization announces that he's the mandatory. Hasim must have great connections, that's all I can say.

    Here is link which quotes his weight at 284, although I can't read the rest in German.
