[iwz678]

Sorry if this has already been mentioned but just wondering if Primetime or someone is showing the weight in @ 5pm tonight?

I don't think Primetime are showing it live, but have a look on the link below for BBC radio Nottinghams commentary

[THEBUTCH]

Froch is making his way to the weigh in, usual ring walk music playing.

Dirrell and his camp is on the stage waiting.

Big cheer for Froch.

[THEBUTCH]

Sheriff of Nottingham is present and making some spurious speach.

[Chambers2]

Who's this Sheriff prick????

[THEBUTCH]

Usual football style chants "who the f++king hell of you"

Dirrell's weight is over

[iwz678]

DIRRELL HAS NOT MADE WEIGHT

He has two hours to loss 4.4 pounds I think

[THEBUTCH]

0.4ozs over

[Chambers2]

Dirrell weighed in at 168.4 lbs, he's got to sweat it off in 2 hours


" YOU FAT BASTARD!!! YOU FAT BASTARD!!! YOU FAT BASTARD!!!" was the cry from the crowd

[THEBUTCH]

Froch is up now

[hitman_hatton1]

nice reception for dirrell.

apologies for the language.

[THEBUTCH]

Froch weighs in at 167lbs .4

[hitman_hatton1]

u fat bastard.

it's only 4 ounces guys.

he could wank that off.

bit unprofessional mind.

[jamesmcdonnell]

Direll is actually 0.4 OZ over the weight - thats about the tiniest amount overweight I can remember seeing. That's a quarter of puff? Maybe he had a quarter of mary jane about his person?

[iwz678]

Froch said that Dirrell looked like he was struggling to make the weight.

Get skipping Andre because I want to know if I'm going to pay for this fight tomorrow.

[THEBUTCH]

Yep, MC says Dirrell has until 7.21pm to shed the weight and make 12st (or 168 lbs).
