BJ FLORES weighed in for his WBC cruiserweight title challenge against Tony Bellew in the buff earlier today as he tipped the scales at 198lbs.

Liverpudlian Bellew, defending his crown for the first time, weighed in at 199lbs to ensure the title fight will go ahead tomorrow night at the Echo Arena in Liverpool.

With nothing but a towel to protect his modesty, American Flores looked slightly agitated as he weighed in for what is his second fight in 12 months. In May he weighed 224lbs for his six-round win over Roberto Santos.

Derry Mathews and Luke Campbell both weighed 134lbs for their fascinating lightweight clash while British bantamweight champion Ryan Burnett and former European champion Ryan Farrag were both 117lbs for their meeting.
