He made Kessler strip for the Calzaghe fight and made most of Naseen's opponents strip naked too. He made Ola Afolabi strip for the Maccarneilli fight. Over the years Frank Warren has made alot of fighters strip naked at the weigh in, as anyone else noticed this, I even made a joke before the weigh in that Warren would make Salita strip LOL, Something seriously weird going on here Frank.

      Anyway, it makes little difference, Khan by a very wide UD - maybe a complete shut-out.
      If you watch Orthodox Stance, you'll see Salita struggling to make 140...TWO YEARS AGO.

      He needs to move up.

        I've seen a bit of Salita and he looks too slow. Plus, he got knocked down by some journeymen. The only way he's beating Khan is if he lands one good punch, like Prescott did.

              No surprise that he may have had an issue making weight.

              It's only the second time in Salita's entire boxing carer that he has scaled 140.

              I wouldn't say it was a "struggle" just because he had to strip down. A "struggle" would be if he was 1 or 2 pounds over and had to go to the sauna and run around in a rubber suit for an hour or two.

              Now that would be a "struggle."

                Salita Struggles....How??

                Just because Salita had to strip down doesn't mean that he was struggling. If he went for a run before the weigh in, could mean a variety if things.

                He may just have felt like running, perhaps because he's facing the challenge his career has been based on, and understandably may be a bit nervous.
