Eaten too many crayons....

Source? by the looks of it as the weigh in looks like it only happened. . He will have a couple of hours to lose the excess pounds.

[cutsman]

How much is he over ?

I'd be very surprised if Quigg failed to make weight , especially up at Featherweight, although I did think the same about Frampton

[ElJefe]

Did they say 128.8 for Quigg?

[Zubrei]

Yes he is over. I deleted because it looked like he hadn't. But his interview he said he was 3lb over yesterday but couldnt lose the weight today.

He can't retry to lose the weight as he is over 2 lb over. Fight is still on, but I bet hes going to lose a good amount of cash.

[MightyWarrior]

2lb over - California law says he can’t now lose that weight, & the fight goes ahead regardless

[coneye]

Gone to the states to improve and learn ,, Then can't make weight , whats he learning , how to be unprofesional

[MightyWarrior]

Probably won’t make much difference because he probably won’t win, but if he does it’s still a massive win for him, even without the title.

[MightyWarrior]

Scott by all accounts is an absolutely obsessive trainer, so probably there is just no way he can make feather, as they have just realised

[ElJefe]

I didn't know Valdez spoke perfect English. I thought he was 100% Mexican? Is he mixed race or did he just grow up in the US from a very young age?

Strange though considering he consistently got himself down to super-bantam just a couple of years ago. Same thing happened with Frampton.

Very much American Mexican.

Judging by the near silence at the weigh in, neither of these guys has a fan base.

[TheLeprechaun]

Terrible from Quigg. Disgusting.

You c*nt

[Shirow]

This is a problem with the extreme weight cutting that is standard these days. A boxer's body will just refuse to give up the fluids one day despite them doing their usual routine and they will have no clue it's about to happen as the only time they are ever within 10lbs of their weigh in weight is fight week.

I've been to the town he's from. It's half in Mexico half in America. Just south of Tuscon Arizona.

Quigg is 2.5 over the limit, I doubt he'll make the weight.
Does that mean the fight goes ahead and the title will remain with Valdez regardless of the result ?

Might still be at stake for Valdez..

How does that work ?

Valdez makes weight Quigg doesn't.
Quigg can't win the strap but if Valdez loses then the title becomes vacant ... is that what your saying ?
