Merely hours away from the Gatti-Leija event being televised by HBO tonight, we bring you the official weights of the main event participants and those of the chief support attraction.

The main event sees Arturo Gatti put his WBC light welterweight title on the line against Jesse James Leija.

Both fighters weighed in precisely at the 140-pound limit.

In the chief support bout, IBF light middleweight champion Kassim Ouma lays his title on the line against Kofi Jantuah in an all-African title bout.

Ouma weighed in at 152-pounds while Jantuah was one pound heavier at 153-pounds.
