Larsen-Magee. Weigh-in, pics and more.
Dane Mads Larsen and irish Brian Magee both weighed in under the supermiddleweight limit before saturdays clash in Aarhus for the vacant EBU title.
Larsen: 75.6 kg. (166.5 lbs)
Magee: 76 kg. (167.5 lbs)
At the weigh-in an upset Magee was angry at Larsen's countryman Mikkel Kessler whom he accused of lying when Kessler said he used Magee as a sparringpartner (pre-Calzaghe) and had to send him home after 2 days because Magee couldn't take it:
"The truth is that we had some tough sparring for a day or two. After that nothing happened as Kessler had the flu. Later I found out that it was because he injured his hand."
Magee continues: "I remember Mikkel as a real nice guy. He even invited me out for dinner. Why would he want to insult me in the danish press? He must be thinking of someone else."
