Amir Khan and Kell Brook locked eyes in a furious final face-off after avoiding a huge fine by hitting the weight limit at Friday’s weigh-in.
Khan and Brook will finally settle their feud inside the ring in Manchester on Saturday, live on Sky Sports Box Office.
Khan was 10st 7lbs 5oz, a pound lighter than Brook, but both were inside the 10st 9lbs (149lbs) limit.
A six-figure fine loomed for every pound that either fighter exceeded the limit by.
Brook had previously teased that he might willingly pay a fine to be bigger and heavier than Khan.
The rivals, whose feud stretches back 17 years, went face to face for the final time before the punches fly on Saturday night.
Brook, a former world welterweight (147lbs) champion, said: "The weight wasn't an issue.
"I feel amazing. I've done the hard work. I will fuel up then come in cool, calm and collected.
"It's going to be electric. I'll be firing on all cylinders."
Khan said about his fiery face-off with Brook: "There was a lot said. Kell is confident and so am I.
"I made the weight easily. I could have made 147lbs if I needed to.
"The next time we see each other will be in the ring. Kell will be shown who the better fighter is."
