The official weigh-in took place a few minutes ago at the Mandalay Bay Events Center, with Filipino Czar Amonsot coming in at a very fit 133 lbs, while defending WBO interim lightweight champ Michael Katsidis was a perfect 135 lbs.
The weights of both fighters were relayed to Philboxing.com by ALA Boxing Gym president Michael Aldeguer and chief trainer Edito 'EAV' Villamor.
Tomorrow's showdown will be for 12 rounds.
