Boxing Keith Thurman makes weight after 22-month hiatus Two fighters are ready to go to war on Saturday, as both Thurman and Lopez make weight. by Daniel Yanofsky January 25, 2019 As with all combat sporting events, there is a sense of doubt when the weigh-ins approach. While boxing isn’t as chaotic as MMA, anything can happen. For Keith Thurman, this was the most important part of his return. After over two years away healing from injuries, Thurman (28-0, 1 NC) successfully made weight (146.5) for his fight against Josesito Lopez (36-7), who weighed in at 146.5 himself. Thurman defeated Shawn Porter and Danny Garcia in back-to-back contests before taking time off to heal. Lopez has faced the likes of Canelo Alvarez, Andre Berto and Jessie Vargas, losing to all three. He is currently on a three-fight win streak. Here are the results of the other fighters who are on the PBC on FOX broadcast: – Adam Kownacki (18-0) (258.5 lbs) v. Gerald Washington (19-2-1) (243.2 lbs) – Claudio Marrero (23-2) (125.5 lbs) v. Tugstsogt Nyambayar (10-0) (125.5 lbs) – Chris Colbert (9-0) (131 lbs) v. Joshua Hernandez (8-1) (130.6 lbs) – Antuanne Russell (7-0) (137.2 lbs) v.
