Whyte-Povetkin and Taylor-Persoon 2 on Saturday, live on Sky Sports Box Office
Dillian Whyte was far lighter on the scales and perhaps much of that was the burden that is no longer on his shoulders.
He defeated his demons at Friday's weigh-in, the required evidence that Whyte is at his strongest-ever in body and mind before rolling the dice against Alexander Povetkin on Saturday, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
He has been visibly more muscular all week but a weigh-in result of 18st 6oz was nearly 19lbs (nearly a stone-and-a-half) less than for his previous fight, when a very different version of Whyte turned up.
He was at a career-heaviest last December in เว็บบอล888, overweight by his own admission and dragged down by a UK Anti-Doping case, which cleared him of any wrongdoing, just 24 hours before he slugged out a win over Mariusz Wach.
"Everything is different," a rejuvenated Whyte told Sky Sports News on Friday. "Saudi Arabia was a short-notice fight. I fought because I had to fight, to keep myself mentally and physically intact.
"I was in a dark place and on the verge of walking away from boxing.
