    This was a big issue for HBO a while back. Top names kept missing weight.
    I am dead certain that Rios just gave up and didn't care when he tried to make weight vs Abril. He missed weight in his previous match as well.

    Frankie "Pitbull" Gomez purposely came (almost 10 lbs.) overweight at the scales against Humberto Soto a few years ago, and the fight was cancelled.
