Daigo Higa loses title on scales

According to the respected website Asian Boxing, Japan's Daigo Higa lost his WBC flyweight title on the scales today, as he weighed in at 114 for a planed title defense against Nicaragua's Cristofer Rosales (26-3). The popular Japanese puncher (15-0 with 15 KOs) was unable to get down to 112 pounds within the two-hour window.  The fight will likely go on tomorrow, but Higa must be less than 122 pounds tomorrow morning. --Scott Shaffer
