MGM Grand, Las Vegas - The weights are in for Saturday's big pay-per-view fight. Former five division champion Floyd Mayweather Jr. (41-0, 25KOs) came in at a shredded 146.5-pounds. The WBC welterweight champion, Victor Ortiz (29-2-2, 22KOs), weighed in at the welterweight limit of 147. As expected both fighters were in excellent shape.
For the vacant WBC junior welterweight title - Pablo Cesar Cano weighed 140 even, and former three division champion Erik Morales weighed 140-pounds at the limit.
In a junior welterweight battle, Josesito Lopez and Jessie Vargas nearly traded punches on the stage before making weight. Lopez came in at 140.5-pounds, while Vargas was 142-pounds. I believe the contract weight, last I checked, was 141, but it may have changed since then.
