Shamil Gaziev has confirmed he weighed 140 kilograms before starting his training camp, addressing concerns about his weight management. The heavyweight fighter clarified the context of his weight discussions, explaining he had been dieting for the last six weeks of camp. According to a social media post, Gaziev currently weighs 119 kilograms and expects no issues making the heavyweight limit at the weigh-ins. The Russian fighter emphasized that heavyweight fighters also cut significant weight, contrary to some assumptions. His previous comments about weighing 140kg were specifically about his off-season weight outside of fight preparation, not during an active camp.
