Quillin fails to make weight

[Stuarty]

Just seen Peter Quillin failed to make the weight for the Lee fight later so Lee will retain his title regardless of the result. Pretty unprofessional from Quillin but I didn't think he should've been getting the shot in the first place after vacating. Could turn out to be good news for BJS because I can't see anything other than a Quillin victory tonight and BJS still gets to face Lee for the strap. Good earner for both of them. Obviously I'd rather Lee whipped Quillin tonight though.

Apologies for the new thread. I just seen this has already been reported in an earlier thread.

This has been happening a lot recently.

I guess it makes it more likely Quillin will win by stoppage.

As an aside I saw Quillin hit the bag for the press or someone prior to his pro debut and trained at the gym a couple of times.

Anyway he looked HUGE - like a Cruiserweight. He was a great guy.
