Stevenson has to strip to meet weight | Valdez comfortably under limit

Shakur Stevenson was forced to strip naked in order to meet weight while Oscar Valdez came in comfortably under the limit before the pair engaged in an icy face-off ahead of Saturday's super-featherweight unification bout in Las Vegas.

Stevenson was seemingly over the 130lb limit upon taking to the scales first before removing his underwear behind the protective screen and meeting his mark exactly.

Valdez followed up by weighing in at 129.6lbs as the pair prepare to put their world titles and unbeaten records on the line at MGM Grand Garden.

A fiery atmosphere including boos for New Jersey native Stevenson appeared to fuel a tense and icy final face-off, Valdez being the first to peel off as he proudly raised the Mexican flag before his counterpart insisted on stepping in front of him to flex for the cameras.
