    How do they know?

    I was thinking: how do the commentators know what weight the fighters are coming in at the night of the fight?? HBO always has the precise figures, the weigh in day weight and tonight's weight. They always differ. How do they find out??

    They obviously weigh them but both guys must accept to do it.

            At SHO, they asked the fighters when they arrive at the arena before the fight as was seen last weekend...

              Are you new to boxing? Good to have a new fan if so, they weigh them.
