Max Imum Jr had a terrible time trying to make weight. After initially coming in at 188.2, he had two hours to make the official fight weight. Stepping on the scales for a second time, he still failed to make the required weight and after much deliberation, his fight with Liam Weaver was cancelled.
So, because the bout was cancelled, Max Imum Jr retains his title. |
