Big surprise at the official weigh-in for Arena’s show in Cuxhaven tomorrow! Marat Khuzeev, official challenger of WBC international welterweight champion Selcuk Aydin, couldn’t make the weight-limit! two hours after his first try on the scale Khuzeev still weighed in at 150 lb. (68 kg).
“Mini-Tyson” Selcuk Aydin had no problems with the limit weighing in at 146.5 lbs. (66.6 kg) and put his title on the line although his opponent will be over the limit.
Selcuk said, “I don’t care whether this guy weighs 4 or 40 pounds more than me. I will knock him out anyway.”

“Heavyweight sensation” Odlanier Solis 256 lb. vs. Chad Van Sickle 237 lb.
