Overweight in El Paso

LIVE ON PPV THIS FRIDAY @ 6p PT/9p ET
Weights by Chris Cozzone & Felix Chavez

From the Casa Nissan in El Paso for tomorrow night’s “Latin Invasion 2″ card tomorrow night at the Don Haskins Center in El Paso: After four of five bouts had fighters weighing in overweight, fighters and their respective camps complained of a bad scale. The Texas Athletic Commission, however, at one point moving the scale from a raised platform to the floor (which made no difference), were adamant about their correct scale. Main eventer Hector Camacho, Jr. came in the heaviest, at 5 1/2 pounds over the limit.

Hector Camacho Jr. 159.5* vs. Ramon “Yory Boy” Campas 152
* For the WBC Caribbean jr. middleweight belt. Camacho has two hours to lose weight.

Antonio Escalante 130* vs. Carlos Fulgencio 126.5
* Escalante has two hours to lose two pounds.
David Medina 167 vs. Miguel Hernandez 174 1/2*
* Hernandez has two hours to lose 4.5 pounds.
Bobby Joe Valdez 151* vs. Abel Perry 149
* Valdez has two hours to lose two pounds.
Cesar Valenzuela 140.5 vs. Cruz Garcia 143.5

The Randy Griffin-Marcos Primera and Sammy Dipace-LeShaun Blair bouts were both scratched when, both, Primera and Blair submitted their medical exams late.

WTF?!

Haha Camacho Jr you dumbass

whoa* (Vic Ortiz stylee)

yeah i'm sure the scale is broke and Yori boy is actually a svelte 147

After all the shit Camacho Jr. said, best shape of my life blah,blah,blah,,,,he comes in heavy!!!
There's NO hope for this underachiever, no wonder he's known in this forum by fat pussy (very appropriate)

I always love it when a fighter/his camp bitch about the scale being off whenever they miss weight. If it's off for you, then does that mean your opponent (the guy who MADE weight) is even lighter?

No big deal. Campos gets another $500 and the fight goes on...

Why is Camachito still fighting?

Not that I deny that Camachica is a waste of talent... but I just have to appreciate the irony in someone asking this question, considering his opponent tomorrow night is Yory Boy Campas, who should've called it quits perhaps a decade ago!

thast strange

What a fat douche.

Camacho Jr could have made weight and he'd still be over weight.

The dude should be fighting in the 140's.

I'd say he is a waste of talent, but, I'm not sure how much he has to waste.

I'm ordering it now.

damn a 300 year old Campas is in better shape than that, that whatever he is.

My exact thoughts!

Does anyone take Camacho Jr serious? I sure don't.....

well considering we had the world filter of all word filters on here for years just for him I say no lol

Chale. but more importantly HE doesn't take himself serious.

I agree....

His birthmark makes him hotter than most men. We need to add him as a poll question in Shadowsfall's other stuff question on what makes women hot.

agreed. That falling asleep in a puddle of Ovaltine® on one-side of the face look is really Hawt.

Camapussy Jr. will never be anything in boxing. This is to be expected.

I do so be nice, come on, give the guy a break, think of how it must feel to be the original Macho Time's son!......

You must cry at a lot of movies.

lol he can still be the original Macho Time son... somewhere else..... besides the ring

isnt vargas hinting at a comeback fight with camacho....

Shit is going to be held at the Fatburger in Vegas.

I think they should officially change the name of the card from "Latin Invasion II" to "Overweight in El Paso".



Or a hot wing eating contest.

Only ones about over weight people and their issues.

Wow, you must have been ballin when you saw "Shallow Hal"....

Fattie got 3 points taken from him by Laurence Cole but still pulled out a SD over Yori Boy.

Did you see it? If so, are you blind now?

VargASS wants to fight Camapussy... Why? WTF is wrong with them?

elmfbjied;7

if anyone saw the Escalante fight can you tell me if he fought in Everlast? He and uber prospect Omar Henry are the two latest guys I have been working with

man I want to see the Campas-Camacho fight for the foolishness factor. How the hell you lose 3 points and still Get A SD? Campas must have been a straight up Zombie against FAtty.

WTF? Nobody did a round by round?

Speaking of overweight in El Paso, you guys see the picture on fightnews of Vargas with Camacho?

He is HUGE. He needs to keep fighting just to keep himself under 300 pounds. He is like Chris Arreola huge. I think Arreola just got an opponent for December 5.

Antonio Escalante won by 2nd round KO wearing our MX gloves

Congrats Tony!

that bodyshot looks sweet! I like Escalante, solid pro. He's really intensified after his ko loss to PAstrana.

glad to see it didn't break his spirit.
