Fistful of jewels
:heh:

I posted the link in the OG thread of Angel talking about a potential AB/Swift fight. He says he knew about the picture, they planned it together, and they were just joking around with the face off. He said they legit real friends though.

Without being said, #BandCamp and #swiftset might as well chill. We ain't ever fighting, so I'm done throwing random sarcastic shots at Swift:obama:

Lamont Peterson just said the same thing about AB. That they real life homies and it's too many people out there for them 2 to fight each other.

Such a lame excuse. Lots of these guys are friends. They still fight.

Garcia, Peterson, Lee Make Weight; Quillin Heavy


By Jake Donovan

The recurring theme in the Premier Boxing Champions series is that belts don’t matter. So far, making weight doesn’t seem to be a principle priority either.
Lamont Peterson avoided the embarrassment of missing weight, though even in shaving his lengthy beard still had to strip down to his birthday suit in order to make his contracted weight for Saturday's headliner versus Danny Garcia at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, New York.
Peterson made the contracted 143 lb. catchweight limit on the second try after initially weighing in 0.2 lbs. over the limit. Garcia came in at 142.2 lbs. for his second straight catchweight bout.
Unbeaten middleweight Peter Quillin became the latest PBC fighter to miss the contracted weight for a fight on the newly developed series. The former titlist showed up more than a pound heavy for Saturday’s showdown with Andy Lee. The contracted weight is the middleweight limit of 160 lbs.; Quillin, while ripped and in shape, registered at 161.4 lbs., while Lee came in under the limit at 159.6 lbs.
Under normal commission rules, Quillin will have up to two hours to shed the excess poundage, or else will be subject to a fine and the possibility of the bout being canceled.

Adrien Broner was believed to have been in a similar position when showing up heavy for his eventual 12-round win over John Molina Jr. last month in Las Vegas. It was determined on the spot that Broner was in the clear for weighing 141 lbs. for a scheduled 140 lbs. bout, since the normal terms of a non-title fight call for a +/- 1 lb. allowance, although that aspect wasn't made public until after Broner hit the scales.

Andy Lee vs. Peter Quillin Now a Non-Title Bout


by David P. Greisman, live from Barclays Center in Brooklyn


In the chief supporting bout, Andy Lee came in at 159.6 pounds for what was supposed to be the first defense of his middleweight title. The only problem? Peter Quillin came in overweight at 161.4 pounds — and then remained overweight 90 minutes later at 160.6 pounds.

Lee-Quillin is now a non-title bout.

Lee, 30, of Limerick, Ireland, is 34-2 with 24 KOs. His two losses came against Bryan Vera in 2008, since avenged, and to Julio Cesar Chavez Jr. in 2012, both by seventh-round technical knockout. He won the vacant WBO world title with a stoppage of Matt Korobov in December.

Quillin vacated that WBO belt last year. He dethroned Hassan N’Dam back in October 2012 and made three successful title defenses. The 31-year-old from Brooklyn is 31-0 with 22 KOs
