    Please if any experts ate on here I wanna know is it possible to tone your facial tissue, but come a little heavier than previous fights? I'm guessing this should mean he shouldn't put on much weight tonight right, and if he does put on a lot of weight and his face stays toned how is that explained? # I never seen nothing like it.

    no expert here but usually face looking sucked in like that is a good indication of being weight drained. see DLH vs Pac

    Berto weighed surprisingly high. Hes usually 145 to 146. Almost 147 this time. I know its not much but it shows Conte is doing his thing.
    Judah but some weigh on with Conte as well.

    Despite Judah's poor performance against Khan I have no doubt he was in top physical shape and I don't think he even did the full program. Against Matthysse I think he was actually drained as he only came it at 142 on fight night compared to 150 on fight night vs Khan.

    Maybe he added muscle and lost body fat?

    Looks like they gained some muscle (hopefully effectively), and then trimmed down, removing the chub from the face.

    I seen a picture from the weigh in and notice his face looked a lot skinnier then before. And from what I seen of his body(couldnt see much in the pic the IBF belt was covering most of his chest and stomach) it looks a lot different. Definitely looks like he lost some fat and added muscle even know he was always jacked but now he seems to be more tone then buff. Hopefully it works out good and he's quicker and could have better stamina and a higher workrate and not drained and weaker. We'll see I think he will get past Zaveck and impressively too. Zaveck is a very good fighter but I think he's just a level bellow Berto and I think Berto is getting highly underrated now and for the past few years because of his preformances or opponents but he's still only 27 and hopefully the lost motivates him. I expect Zaveck to give a good fight and try his hardest but Berto will be just too fast and too good for him and Zaveck hasnt seen anyone like Berto before and Berto will come out looking to redeem himself and show he's still a top welterweight. Should be a good fight for 5 rounds but with Berto clearly the better then he gets stopped around the 7th after he takes a good beating for 2 or so rounds.

    Victor helped Berto with figuring out a scientific approach to losing weight, building muscle while improving his overall conditioning. I feel as though berto is guilty of shedding weight by "sweating" it off and not taking the right approach as a pro. We'll see......

    He doesn't actually look that different to his previous weigh-ins. It's probably the goatee that's making is face look slimmer than usual:

    I do think the facial hair is partially what's throwing people off.
