Josh Taylor (19-0, 13 KOs) and Teofimo Lopez (18-1, 13 KOs) at the official weigh-in procedure continued to demonstrate to the public open dislike for each other and again the duel of their views took place in the presence of several guards. Taylor weighed 139.8 pounds, Lopez - exactly 140 pounds.

“Now he is mine,” said Vasily Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs) after Devin Haney (29-0, 15 KOs) first attacked him verbally at the weigh-in, and then pushed him before the fight for all four lightweight belts. The current champion, apparently, either could not stand the tension, or wants to provoke the Ukrainian at all costs. The Nevada State Athletic Commission intends to question Haney and possibly fine him for his behavior at the ceremonial weigh-ins.
Devin Haney (29-0, 15 KOs) decided to push Vasily Lomachenko (17-2, 11 KOs) at the ceremonial weigh-in before their fight for the undisputed lightweight title today. Earlier, during the real morning weigh-in, the American showed the required limit, according to the Ukrainian, only "on the second or third attempt." Top Rank promises to show this fight on its official YouTube channel in Ukraine. Broadcast starts at 5 am in Kyiv.
Devin Haney And Vasily Lomachenko removed the last obstacle on the way to the fight for the title of undisputed lightweight champion on May 20 in Las Vegas.

It is reported that in order to meet the light weight limit, Haney had to stand on the scales without clothes. From the first run, he showed a mark of 135.1 pounds. This official procedure for the Nevada State Athletic Commission was closed to outsiders and the media.
