Weights from Albuquerque & Atlantic City!

DC-based super featherweight Daniel "The Prophet" Attah weighed in at 130 pounds for the his nationally televised (Telefutura) 12-round bout against undefeated Urbano Antillon tomorrow night at the Isleta Casino in Albuquerque, NM.

Antillon had a very difficult time hitting the 130-pound weight limit, coming in as high as 132 pounds. After three tries, Antillon came in in at 129 3/4.

The bout will be for both the NABF and NABO Super Featherweight titles. The telecast begins at 8 PM ET.

In Atlantic City, Baltimore heavyweight Bernard "Bad Ass" Brown weighed in at 259 pounds for his six-round contest against Terrell Nelson at Bally's Event Center. Nelson came in at an even-heftier 263 pounds.

Wow! That's a bit of weight to take off at the last minute for a Jr Light.

If Attah can pile on the pressure, he might be able to do something. But then again, Attah's not a pressure fighter, nor a puncher.

It'll probably grind along the whole twelve and Attah can secure himself another decent payday.
