The iconic Madison Square Garden is buzzing once again as Brooklyn's own Richardson Hitchins and Australia's George Kambosos Jr. both successfully made weight today for their IBF World Junior-Welterweight title bout, headlining tomorrow's Matchroom Boxing event. The weigh-ins concluded Friday, setting the stage for a compelling night of boxing this Saturday, June 14.

Richardson Hitchins (140 lbs), fighting in his hometown, looked confident and ready to challenge for the world title. Standing opposite him, former unified Lightweight World Champion George Kambosos Jr. came in slightly lighter at 139.4 lbs, appearing determined to add another world championship to his resume.
