JLC weighs in at 147! Phew!!

[amat]

This is worrying....

No kidding, I hope that report isn't true.

[El Gamo]

Like I said AFTER THE SECOND CORRALES fight,JLC should have moved straight up to WW. I nailed that one He was killing himself making the 140 limit for that fight and it is evident here. Maybe they will fight at a catch weight? I honestly hope the fight is not cancelled!

Anyone know what happens in this situation? And what would you do if you were Hatton? Fight at a catch weight? FOrget the fight?

If he comes in heavy again he did it twice with Corrales if he does it with Hatton he should be fined and banned because he's just costing everybody money

That could be true but I see Ricky thinking like this:

I think Hatton will want to go ahead with it personally just coz of the way he is. He wants to prove himself as the best Britain has ever had so I can not see him backing out.

This is worrying though. What happened to Arums fwocking Velocity team which "helped" Morales and Cotto?

Here we go again. I love to watch JLC fight, but this is getting ridiculous. I'll reserve judgement until we know more. Hopefully, they can still salvage the situation. If this fight doesn't happen, I'll be highly dissappointed.

Agreed. This is not yet conclusive...

Lets see how things unravel...

Man, this is disappointing. If he's having problems making weight again it is just blatent disrespect and a shocking lack of professionalism from JLC. I think Hatton will still go forward with the fight if JLC can get close to 140, but I don't think he should, it's not fair to the fighter who drains him self physically and mentally to get to the weight (we all know Hatton has had issues regarding weight, though I don't think he's ever not made weight).

It will end up Hatton vs Forbes

I may be in the minority here, but I think that would be a pretty good fight, and Forbes deserves a shot at someone after that bullshit decision he got against D-Hop.

What is worrying say they fought at catchweight so fight was not scrapped look what happened in second Corrales fight when Castillo was stronger.This is'nt fair Hatton is draining himself to make weight and Castillo would be more natural and he would be really strong like in the second Corrales fight.

just read on Ricks site he came in at 147 well up for it.

That is great! Lets hope this is the real-deal, and the fight is still on.

[Tysonbruno]

Only 7lbs to lose then and 20 odd days to do it good for Hatton

[yoitsdan]

[Tysonbruno]

I thought it was an IBO title fight are WBC anything to do with them?
