Edgar Berlanga and Steve Rolls on Friday made weight for their 10-round super middleweight bout Saturday in New York City (ESPN, ESPN+).
Berlanga weighed 167.4 pounds, .6 below the division limit. Rolls weighed 167.8.
Berlanga (18-0, 16 KOs) is coming off a unanimous-decision victory over Marcelo Esteban Coceres in October, a fight in which he tore his biceps and went down in Round 9.
The 24-year-old from Brooklyn stopped each of his first 16 opponents in the first round.
Rolls (21-1, 12 KOs) is best known for his fourth-round knockout loss to Gennadiy Golovkin in 2019. He has won his subsequent two fights by knockout, albeit against second-tier opponents.
