Adrien Broner said during a conference call Thursday that he won’t have any difficulty making weight for his fight against Adrian Granados. 

Later on the call, Granados gave some insight as to why Broner isn’t worried about making weight, which he didn’t do for his last fight against Ashley Theophane. 

Granados revealed that the fight will be contested at the welterweight limit of 147 pounds, not at a catch weight slightly above the junior welterweight limit of 140. Their February 18 fight in Cincinnati initially was supposed to be contested at a maximum weight of 142 pounds, but Broner demanded an increase, after the fight was made, to a limit of 147. The weight was changed, according to Granados, because Broner got sick during training camp and would’ve had too much trouble making 142 pounds.
