Gervonta Davis managed to make weight for his super featherweight world title defense against Hugo Ruiz, but not before there was some drama at weigh-ins.
Davis originally came in overweight for his WBA 130-pound title defense against Ruiz, set to headline a Showtime-televised card in Carson, California on February 9. On his third attempt, Davis finally made weight, meaning the title fight is on.
This isn't the first time that Davis has missed weight for a title defense. In 2017, Davis was overweight before an IBF title defense against Francisco Fonseca, which resulted in Davis being stripped of the title.
The event currently has 16 total fights scheduled with five of those fights being shown on Showtime's various broadcast platforms. Fightful has you covered with the official weights of every fight on the card.
