Amir Khan and Julio Diaz both made weight for Saturday night's welterweight main event at Motorpoint Arena in Sheffield, England.
Both fighters weighed just over 142 lb. Khan tipped the scales at 10 stone, 2 pounds and 2 ounces, while Diaz was slightly heavier at 10 stone, 2 pounds and 3 ounces.
Khan (27-3, 19KO) returns to jolly old England for the first time since his stoppage win over Paul McCloskey in April 2011. The former 140 lb. titlist is in search of his second straight win, having overcome a two-fight losing streak to stop then-unbeaten Carlos Molina in 10 rounds last December.
Diaz (40-7-1, 29KO) appeared on the Khan-Molina undercard, impressively holding Shawn Porter to a 10-round draw in their televised welterweight battle. The former lightweight titlist is unbeaten in his past three fights since returning to the ring last summer. [Click Here To Read More]
