Johnny Fisher outweighed Michael Pirotton at the official weigh-in for their heavyweight clash at the Copper Box Arena. The "Romford Bull" scaled 243lbs, while Pirotton came in at 240.6lbs. The fight will be broadcast live on Sky Sports on Saturday.

Fisher, training under new coach Tony Sims, believes the pair's influence can elevate fighters to new levels. Pirotton, unfazed, references Conor Benn's recent defeat to Ryan Garcia as motivation, aiming to replicate that quick finish against Fisher.

Pirotton plans to use Fisher's home support as pressure, stating he has the talent to surprise despite the odds. Fisher acknowledges Pirotton's durability and high workrate but believes he can exploit his opponent's physical attributes.
