Artur Beterbiev is not new to drawing attention towards him with his dominant boxing style. Until now, the undefeated boxer has put up some of the most gratifying performances to stay in the limelight. However, Beterbiev recently stirred the boxing space for another reason, i.e. missing weight, and then again hitting it in his second attempt.

The 36-year-old has a fight in contention for Friday night against Marcus Browne. Here, he will defend his WBC and IBF light-heavyweight titles. That said, in his first attempt, Beterbiev hit 175.2 lbs and he turned out to be slightly overweight.

Later, the champ again hit the scales, and he perfectly made 175-pounds. Beterbiev even shared this on his social media handle. However, he finally made the weight, thus showing off his excitement for this clash.
