Shamil Gaziev Confirms 140kg Weight Before Camp, Now at 119kg

Shamil Gaziev confirmed he weighed 140 kilograms before beginning his training camp, addressing concerns about heavyweights cutting weight. He stated he has been dieting for the last six weeks and according to his social media posts now weighs 119 kg, well under the 120 kg heavyweight limit. Gaziev wanted to clarify for those who think heavyweights don't cut weight. He indicated there will be no problems making weight at the official weigh-in. In a recent interview, he had discussed his weight outside of fight preparation, so the pre-camp weight should not be cause for alarm.
