 Juan Manuel Marquez (L) and Michael Katsidis pose during today's weighin at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas.
Las Vegas, NV: Golden Boy Promotions and its partners held the weigh-in just moments ago at the lobby of the MGM Hotel for tomorrow?s big fight at the MGM Grand Garden Arena.
Of course, the fight fans enjoyed it but those checking in at the hotel were not too happy.
?Why did they hold it here,? one guest was heard to say.
The arena was apparently being used for a concert tonight so the weigh-in was held at a makeshift space in the hotel lobby. It was not too bad a place for a weigh-in unless of course you are a guest on line to check in.
But then again, you can?t please everyone and the fight must go on tomorrow.
