    "But according to a source, both fighters will be weighed in at 7 a.m. on Saturday with the stipulation that the fight will commence if Guzman weighs in at 150 or below, and Funeka, at 145 or below."

    Feom the above article, There is something I don't quite understand or maybe reading it wrong. To me it seems that Funeka has to weigh in 145 or below and Guzman has to weight 150 or below. I'm confused as something about that doesn't seem to add up. Why should there be a weight restriction like that on Funeka??
    Right, that just sounds weird. What is the reasoning behind that? Funeka made the weight, so now he should be able to rehydrate to whatever weight he wants. I so hope Funeka is able to do a number on this cheating little bugger.

    I know, I just don't understand how that weight rule can be implemented. Somethin ain't right about that for sure. Maybe it's written wrong.
