Deontey Wilder and Luis Ortiz conducted a traditional weighing procedure before the full-time battle.
By its results, Wilder's weight was 97.4 kilograms. Ortiz, in turn, was much heavier than his opponent - 109.4.
It should be noted that both fighters finally had time to "drill" each other's looks before the fight, which will take place as part of the heavyweight version of the WBC.

Recall that the fight Wilder - Ortiz will be held on March 3, 2018 in Brooklyn.
An interesting fact is that on the undercard of this fight will perform Ukrainian Sergey Derevyanchenko. The rival of our compatriot will be an American Dashon Johnson.
Note that the fight with Johnson was to be held on January 20, but later was postponed due to illness of the Ukrainian boxer. In the weighing procedure, Derevyanchenko was slightly lighter than his opponent - 74.39 against 74.75.
