    At Madison Square Garden this afternoon: Sultan Ibragimov, the WBO heavyweight titlist, weighed in first, tipping the scales at 219 pounds. Wladimir Klitschko, the IBF heavyweight belt holder, was next on the scale, and his weight was 238 pounds.

    Wow, Wlad is light. Hopefully he hasn't trained too much stamina and lost his strength. Sultan is his normal soft self

    Wlad looks in great shape, but he's been doing a lot of press stuff for this fight. I heard him on Kellerman's radio show yesterday, going on Conan tonight, he's got a charity gig that he does, etc.

    Gotta wonder if he's as focused as he should be.

    Mentally, it's a possibility, though he's definitely in shape physically...238 is the lowest he's been in years.

    My guess is he came in lighter to try and nullify Sultan's speed.
