So Higa misses weight, looks awful but fight is allowed to go forth. Loses title in the scales. Higa's corner throws in the towel in the 9th with Rosales ahead on 2 cards, the 3rd is even.
Higa should have withdrawn or not been allowed to fight. He has to move to 115 now, another nice addition to the division.
Also looks good for Selby who already holds a win over Rosales and is the #1 contender to Rosales' new WBC belt.
