Comments Thread For: Overweight Tepora Replaced On PPV, Stripped of Interim WBA Title

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

LAS VEGAS Manny Pacquiao had hoped to showcase one of his fellow Filipinos during Showtime's pay-per-view telecast Saturday night. Jhack Tepora destroyed that plan by coming in grossly overweight Friday afternoon. BoxingScene.com has learned that Tepora's trouble at the scale forced organizers of the Pacquiao-Adrien Broner card to remove him from his scheduled fight against Hugo Ruiz.

Damn thats awful. Hopefully the replacement makes a good fight. Tepora was probably going to roll anyway

[Eff Pandas]

The WBA stripped someone of a also ran belt???

Wut in the f#ck!?!?

Did he come in overweight or commit a homicide of some WBA official?

[sicko]

Blew a great opportunity that is unfortunate for him

[tatot]

This kid is a joke, no discipline whatsoever! 131.5lbs for a featherweight fight, c’mon! He was even 1.5lbs over the superfeather limit.

[Bestlefty]

That is unprofessional of him comin overweight. But it is just second to those fighter taking banned substance to cheat the scales. At least they informed in advance for the organizers to look for possible replacement. But still unpfrosseional and he may have wasted the biggest opportunity to introduce himself to the US market.
