Premier Boxing Champions moments ago held the official weigh-in for tomorrow?s fight card at the MGM Grand and televised live on NBC.
The results are as follows:
Adrien Bronner (Cincinnati, OH) 30-1-0,22 K0 - 143.5lbs
Shawn Porter (Cleveland, OH) 25-1-1, 16K0 - 144 lbs
Errol Spence Jr (De Soto, Texas) 16-0-0 - 149 lbs
Philip Lo Greco (Ontario, Canada) 26-1-1, 14 K0 - 152 lbs
Robert Easter (Toledo, OH) 13-0-0, 10 K0 - 135 lbs
Miguel Mendoza (Agua Calloinetes, MX) 21-5-2, 21 KO - 136.5
Terrel Gausha (Cleveland, OH) 14-0-0, 8K0 - 154.lbs
Luis Grajeda (Chihuahua, MX) 18-4-2, 14KO - 156 lbs
Michael Hunter (Las Vegas, NV) 7-0-0, 4K0 - 201 lbs
Deon Elam (Los Angeles, Ca) 14-2-0, 8K0 - 197 lbs
Kevin Newman (Las Vegas, NV) 2-0-1.1KO - 164 lbs
Bobby McIntyre (Tacoma, WA) 0-1-0 - 163 lbs
Sanjarbek Rakhymanov (Andijon, Uzbekistan) Pro Debut - 143 lbs
Brett Simmons (Clevelan, OH) 2-1-2, 1KO - 146 lbs
It appears the Porter-Bronner fight being a non-title scrap will be nothing more than a ?Battle for Ohio?. The winner gets to claim the bragging rights as to who is the best welterweight in the Buckeye State.
But the fight is heading to a really huge one with Bronner verbally sparring with the father of Shawn Porter and promising to ?kick the butt of the father-son Porter team?.
The potential fireworks tomorrow however, has not generated lots of boxing fans in Las Vegas. The Arena doors were opened at 1:00 and up until 3:00 when the fighters stepped on the scales, only a few die-hard folks were seen at the cavernous arena. At least there were 1000 folks inside.
Even the media, not too many of the faces I saw during the Pacquiao-Mayweather dance last May 2nd, were present today. Well, at least there is still tomorrow. Perhaps they are just taking their time to get to Vegas.
