They dont lose it. They are pretty much at their fighting weight but in the days approaching the fight, they dehydrate themselves for the weigh in, and then just drink water to get back to normal weight

They'll probably be right around this weight for the fight. They will just sweat off the weight the 24-48 hours before the weigh in.

Well, you gotta remember these guys are not trying to make weight, they very most likely would have had food before being weighed and of course were hydrated well

I would imagine they would only have to lose around 5-6 pounds each if that, then not eat to make weight or not drink on the day etc

War Judah. Whats the undercard to this.

Actually they are. There is a 10% limit at the 30 day weigh in, even tho the article doesnt say that. They had to make 154, so they are most likely cutting a a little water weight to make it

Yes, the article said it. =)

"The maximum either fighter could have been is 154 pounds. The WBC’s 30-day weigh-in requires fighters to be within 10 percent of the division limit."

OMG! These two should be fighting at Junior Middleweight! Danny Garcia needs to get off his ass and challenge the Canelo v. Trout winner.
