Ahead of tonight's European heavyweight title contest happening in Germany, the combatants, champion Luan Krasniqi and challenger Lance Whitaker went at each other at the weigh-in. Whitaker was having none of any niceties from Krasniqi and a pushing match ensued after which bad blood certainly seemed to exist between the two heavyweights. Whitaker weighed in at around 253-pounds, a good weight for him and markedly less than in past fights, while Krasniqi tipped the scales at around the 225-pound mark.
SaddoBoxing will bring you all the results from Germany as they happen tomorrow night.
