Manhattan Beach, CA - The weights are in for the ring gladiators that are scheduled to fight in tomorrow's double header at the Home Depot Center in Carson, California.

WBO and IBF champ Nonito "The Filipino Flash" Donaire of General Santos City, Philippines stepped in the official scales of the California Sports Athletic Association (CSAC) first and weighed in at 121.6 lbs.

WBC Super Bantam "emeritus" champion Toshiaki Nishioka of Tokyo, Japan followed and weighed in at 121.8 lbs.

Nishioka and Donaire will engage in a battle for Super Bantam supremacy, with the winner getting the accolade of being the best in the 122 pound division.

Next to get weighed in are the co-feature of this much anticipated double event of the year featuring Brandon Rios and Mike Alvarado.

Rios of Oxnard, California clocked in at an even 140 lbs. while Alvarado who hails from Denver, Colorado was a shade under at 139.8 lbs.
