Gervonta Davis (22-0, 21 KOs) and Yuriorkis Gamboa (30-2, 18 KOs) made the weight limit of lightweight division during an official weigh-in before their fight in Atlanta, Georgia. Davis needed two attempts to make the limit of 135 pounds. Gamboa made weight on his first attempt. They will fight for regular WBA lightweight title. For Davis, it will be the official debut in this weight category. At the faceoff after the weigh-in Davis shoved Gamboa with both hands, which caused scuffles among the teams of the opponents.
