Shakur Stevenson and Artem Harutyunyan weighed-in without incident ahed of their WBC lightweight title fight in Newark tomorrow.
Stevenson came in at 134.1lbs and Harutyunyan was 134.8lbs, and they did not have much to say to one another.
“They want you to lose,” the challenger, Harutyunyan said. “I know,” said Stevenson.
But the fighters kept the exchanges brief and went away to rehydrate and refuel.
It is Stevenson’s last fight of his existing promotional deal with Top Rank, and there is a lot of attention on his next move, although Harutyunyan hopes people will be talking about him after their fight at the Prudential Center.
