Weigh-in’s Done, Eight Fights official for BYB 35
Caged Minds was live at the Revel Entertainment Center for the BYB 35 ceremonial weigh-ins.
The originally scheduled main event between LT Nelson & James Connelly was cancelled after New Mexico athletic commission rules wouldn’t allow the fight to be six rounds. Reigning super Middleweight champion LT Nelson was insistent on the fight needing to be six rounds leading to what the promotion says is just a postponement.
The new main event elevated from the co-main event is a five round affair for the vacant BYB Welterweight Championship. Argentina’s Walter Saravia (146.8) & St. Louis’s Javon Wright (145.2) both successfully made weight.
The co-main event is at Heavyweight, UFC vet Cody East (247.8) against Hawaiian Toughman champion Dylan Rush (242.4). Plus former BYB champion Jarome Hatch (194.4) faces former BKB champion Daniel Lerwell (194.4).
The doors at the Revel Entertainment Center will open at 5pm local time with the first bell set for 6pm.
