PBC on Bounce Weigh-in Results: Lubin On Point, De Jesus Macias Heavy

Mike SloanJan 30, 2016

Premier Boxing Champions returns to Bounce TV on Sunday for another edition its new contender series, PBC on Bounce: The Next Round. The action comes live from the Seminole Casino in Immokalee, Fla., and, per the norm, the event is stacked with promising young pugilists.

The main event puts junior middleweights Erickson Lubin and Jose De Jesus Macias against each other and the 10-round affair should be an entertaining one. At Saturday afternoon’s weigh-ins, both combatants weren’t yet cleared to fight as of this posting. De Jesus Macias (18-4-2, 9 KOs) was a little heavy as he tipped the scale at 155.2 pounds and had two hours to shed the extra weight. Lubin (13-0, 10 KOs), meanwhile, was on point as he came in at 154.6 pounds.

The co-feature wasn’t without controversy, either, as both Alex De Jesus (21-1, 13 KOs) came in two pounds over the contracted 149-pound catchweight limit and opponent Joseph Elegele (14-2, 10 KOs) weighed 149.2 initially. Elegele removed his socks and lost the two ounces but as of this posting, De Jesus hadn’t re-attempted to make weight.

The action will be televised live on Bounce TV and BounceTV.com starting at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT.
