    Comments Thread For: All Make Weight In London Despite Linares Scale Scare

    There was a bit of late drama at today’s weigh-in for Eddie Hearn’s O2 Arena show. Defending WBC lightweight champion Jorge Linares missed the division limit by 4ozs and was given just one an hour to get down to 135lbs or forfeit his WBC title. Kevin Mitchell, the challenger, hit the scales at 9st 8lbs 4ozs. Linares came back just over 10-minutes later and weighed in at 134.1lbs. [Click Here To Read More]

      I'm going with Linares too. Although wouldn't mind if Mitchell won. Second week in a row where two of my favourite fighters are squaring off. I just don't think Mitchell has it at this level.

        PR is full of knee takers and catchweight queens so now you're rooting for Venezuela...? Interesting.

          I don't think Linares is levels above MItchell but he can hit and Mitchell isn't the best at taking a solid shot. I'm picking Linares by stoppage.

                  I think Gradovic will win a close decision.

                  Reckon Linares will win though either guy could be ko'd
