Elijah Pierce and Jose Sanmartin make weight for OTX Boxing 10

Junior featherweights Elijah Pierce and Jose Sanmartin were on target at Thursday’s weigh-in, ahead of Friday’s OTX Boxing 10 main event at OTE Arena in Atlanta.

Pierce (19-2, 16 KOs) hit the 122-pound limit, while Sanmartin (35-8-1, 21 KOs) weighed in at 121.8 pounds.

Originally scheduled for June, the bout was postponed after Pierce fell ill the week of the fight, prompting its cancellation.

Brandon Adams (24-3, 16 KOs) initially weighed in at 155.2 pounds for the OTX Boxing junior middleweight tournament semifinals – well over the prescribed limit. Adams later met the 154-pound requirement within the allowed time, confirmed by OTX Boxing representatives. Francisco Veron (14-0-1, 10 KOs), Adams’ opponent, weighed in comfortably at 153.6 pounds on his first attempt.

Elsewhere in the tournament, Andreas Katzourakis (13-0, 10 KOs) hit the 154-pound limit, while Robert Terry (12-0-1, 4 KOs) came in at 152 pounds, two pounds under the limit.
