Nathan Gorman will have weight on his side when he faces Daniel Dubois for the vacant British heavyweight title.
Gorman (16-0, 11 KOs) came in over a stone heavier than Dubois during their weigh-in ahead of Saturday's showdown at The O2 in London.
The Nantwich fighter tipped the scales at 18st 4lbs, while Londoner Dubois (11-0 10 KOs) came in at 17st 1lbs.
Dubois, who is the favourite with the bookmakers, may be giving away weight but the 21-year-old is half-an-inch taller and has a five-inch reach advantage over his opponent.
Former Olympian Joe Joyce will continue his career in the pro ranks when he faces former world title challenger Bryant Jennings.

Jennings returns to the ring on the back of a stoppage defeat to Oscar Rivas, who faces Dillian Whyte on the Greenwich peninsula on July 20.
Joyce weighed 18st 4lbs, while Jennings was 16st 2lbs.
