It is officially all systems go for Anthony Joshua vs. Jake Paul.
Joshua and Paul both took to the scale at the Fontainebleau Miami Beach for their eight-round heavyweight clash on Netflix at Kaseya Center in Miami.
Joshua couldn’t weigh more than 245 pounds for the bout, and he came in at 243.4 pounds, the lightest he's been since September 2021 when he fought Oleksandr Usyk for the first time.
Paul weighed 216.6 pounds, the second heaviest of his career.
Joshua stepped on the scales around 45 minutes after Paul did.
Their fight will take place in a slightly bigger ring, at 22 by 22 feet compared to a standard 20 by 20 foot ring.
