David Haye and Dereck Chisora managed to make it through Thursday's weigh-in without any real incident. Chisora weighed in at 247 lb, while Haye came in at 210 lb. The two fighters stood on opposite sides of a fence dividing the camps, staring each other down through chain links while talking mild trash. It was just enough to draw cackles from the crowd, but civil and contained as the fighting is being saved for Saturday evening at Upton Park in West Ham, London.

I heard there are some people from the BBCoE that are involved with boxrec they don't want the fight recognised at all.
It should be though

I'm curious about this also. Seems strange as the fight is sanctioned by the Luxembourg boxing federation and there are titles on the line, albeit fringe titles. It must be because neither fighter holds a boxing licence? Still seems a little strange to ignore the fight anyway as it will lead to incorrect records. They could have mentioned the fight and inserted a caveat that it would not count towards their records due to the lack of licences.

The weigh in looks like I expect the fight to go; A heavyweight set to be beaten to a pulp by a blown up cruiser.
Haye weighed in what, 9lbs above the cruiser-weight limit? That should ensure his speed is at it's best and he wont lose much pop from his punches either. Haye before 6.
