- Davis (135lb) and Garcia (135½lb) make weight ahead of fight
- American fighters forced to be separated during staredown
Gervonta Davis and Ryan Garcia had to be physically separated when they came together one final time at Friday afternoon’s weigh-ins ahead of their eagerly anticipated fight.
Garcia (28-0, 26 KOs), who emerged in a black tank top before stripping down to yellow shorts on a cloudless 84F afternoon, was first on the scales and came in at 135½lb, a half-pound below the contracted catch-weight of 136lbs.
