The Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Juan Manuel Marquez weigh-in was hosted by comedy star D.L. Hughley today, and also on hand were ring announcer Michael Buffer, fighter and promoter Oscar de la Hoya and Roger Mayweather.
Floyd will pay an unspecified fine for coming in two pounds heavier than the 144-pound welterweight level. Juan gets the money, in addition to his fighter’s fee.
Contributing photographers Erik Kabik and Tom Donoghue were at the weigh-in for Vegas DeLuxe, where Floyd stripped down to boxers and Juan to tighty whiteys. The boxers square off at MGM Grand Garden Arena tomorrow night.
