LIVINGSTON SCOTT, STAR Writer

Jamaica and Caribbean (CABOFE) welterweight Mullings said his sche-duled fight with Guyanese Andrew 'Six Head' Lewis, set for February, will go ahead as planned, and that he has received no indication that the fight has been postponed or called off.

Mullings is set to fight the former WBA welterweight champion in late February.

However, the Guyanese was quoted as saying that he is not sure that the fight is still on as he heard that it had been postponed.

Lewis added that he had tried making contact with the concerned parties in Jamaica, but has had no success, and was in limbo as a result.

When STAR Sports spoke with Mullings, he had no doubts about the fight going ahead and stated that Lewis must be contacting the wrong people or country.

"The fight is still on from my understanding ... I was in the gym even this (Wednesday) morning preparing for the fight," he said.

"Somebody needs to tell him (Lewis) that it's Kingston, Jamaica (he needs to contact), not Jamaica, Queens. He's contacting the wrong place, man," Mullings said.

Mullings admitted that his management team has not really been in touch with their Guyanese counterparts.

However, he expects a tough challenge from the former world title holder, and, contrary to popular belief, does not expect Lewis' inactivity over the last five years to be a major disadvantage.

"This will be a tough fight, because they (Guyana) rate him (Lewis) as their best ever there."

Lewis, 44, was Guyana's first world boxing champion after he won the WBA welterweight title in 2001. In his last fight in 2008, he lost on a split decision to Howard Eastman, one of four Guyanese boxers Mullings has defeated in the last three years.

Mullings has never lost to a Guyana boxer.

"I may have an advantage because of (Lewis' inactivity), but he has the advantage of experience. I am ready to challenge (him)," said Mullings.
