Nothing new here, Frank Warren makes every fighter take off their underwear. He made Barrera, Kotelink and most of Khan's other opponents strip. 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.
Never realised Salita fought most of his recent fights at welterweight. How the hell did he manage to get such a high ranking with the WBA at junior welter?
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.
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.
