Juanma Easily Makes Pre-Fight Weight For Mtagwa
By Mark Vester
Juan Manuel Lopez easily made his pre-fight weight when he stepped on the scales in Puerto Rico, one week before he defends his WBO super bantamweight title against Rogers Mtagwa at New York's Madison Square Garden. Juanma stepped on the scales and weighed 126.6, only 4.6 pounds above the necessary weight on 122.
Lopez will be heading over to New York to take part in numerous media events and finish up a few last minute training routines before the weigh-in and big fight.
"We are well prepared, we're like a 98% ready for this fight," Lopez said to Primera Hora. "The preparation has been good and you will see that the fight, as always. You may see me boxing more than before, but we've been working on that. In New York we will be participating in various promotional activities, but also the training on the things we lack."
