you got a credible source for that info ?

The weigh in is at 2.30pm PST, which is actually at 10.30pm GMT. There's still about 4 1/2 hours until the weigh in.

A mate who is over there. Just realised the time difference though so it may be a wind up although someone on Hattons forum has heard the same? Do they do a prelimanary weigh in first thing in the morning

Mind you, if they did, No one would know the results except the boxers and their camps!! Maybe its just a wind up!

Carnt see Castillo been so stupid again Hatton has warned him already saying if he is over 140 he aint fighting.We will find out for sure in a few hours time!

Put a post up on Boxrec 3 weeks ago saying Castillio would struggle doing the weight got shouted down, we will see.

Hatton should fight him regardless of weight.
He is afterall getting 5 million to fight JLC
and Castillo nets ZERO, anyway.
I will be dissapointed if Castillo comes in overweight,
but I would be more dissapointed if they don't fight at all.

but just few more hrs and we'll know

This kinda takes his motivation away to make weight. But I think he will, how many fighters fail to make weight the first fight coming up in weight class?

Ironically enough Diego Corrales after sueing JLC for it came in over weight, for his next fight moving up to 147.

He was 143 lbs, yesterday, so when he drys out i highly doubt he dont make 140. Saying that though didnt Castillo look big at the final Presser, i know they were clotheed the fighters but thats the impression i got that Castilo looks pretty big.
