    Jirov weighed in at 209 lbs but at the start of the broadcast Lampley and Merchent say he was eating and drinking water right until he stepped on the scale to weigh in as heavy as possible so the public would view him as a "real HW'. Before the fight in the dressing room he was 203lbs.

    Getting with Thell Torrence and Tommy Brooks was a terrible career move. That Italian guy who trained him before was way better, he always gave Vasya great advice especially when it came to defense and was always reminding him to be responsible defensively. He was quite good defensively when he wanted to be.
