Copa Combate: Weigh-In Results For Tomorrow’s Live Telemundo & NBCSN Event

CANCUN, MX – November 10, 2017 – The fighters stepped on the scale and faced off today, one day before “COPA COMBATE,” the historic event that will be headlined by a one-night, eight-man, bantamweight (135 pounds) tournament in which the winner will have to persevere through three bouts in a single night to take home a $100,000 grand prize, live on Telemundo and NBCSN at 11:30 p.m. ET/10:30 p.m. CT tomorrow, Saturday, Nov. 11 from Cancun, Mexico.

Scheduled tournament entrant Andres “Doble A Leal” Ayala (12-4) from Bogota, Colombia was unable to make the contracted weight, and was thereby replaced in the tournament field with fellow Colombian Alejandro “Pitbull” Abomohor (5-4) of Barranquilla.

Abomohor will square off with Ayala’s original quarterfinal stage opponent, Marc “Lufo” Gomez (20-10) of Barcelona, Spain.

Marroquin will battle countryman and Palacios’ original quarterfinal stage opponent, Carlos “Lobo” Rivera (10-2) from Mexico City.
