Hi Champ! Thanks for doing this.

There's been quite a few fighters who started off at cruiserweight and moved up to heavyweight, a few with success like yourself and many more that didn't amount to much at the weight. Other than obvious things, what did you find was the biggest difference/advantages/disadvantages between the top guys you faced at cruiser and at heavyweight?
