The weigh-ins for Cage Warriors’ first show of 2023 went off without a hitch at California’s first and luckiest casino – the Sycuan Casino Resort – this morning, with all twelve athletes hitting their marks comfortably.
Despite taking the bout on just over a week’s notice, Johnny Campbell made the 136lb bantamweight limit for his grudge match with Wilson Reis (135.5lbs); the pair will be looking to settle some bad blood in the evening’s main event on Friday night.
Elsewhere on the card, John De Jesus (144.8lbs) and Robert Hernandez (144.9lbs) both came in a fraction under 145lbs for their highly anticipated featherweight encounter.
Shawn Johnson, who has competed from featherweight down to flyweight, looked comfortable on the scales at 143.3lbs for his clash with San Diego fan favourite Damon Wilson (144.9lbs).
