Expressandstar.com bring you the video report from the weigh-in as Commonwealth champion Don Broadhurst defends the title tonight at the Wolverhampton Civic Hall.
The Birmingham super-flyweight takes on tough Ghanian Asamoah Wilson in the Sky-televised main event, his second defence of the crown.
He talks to our reporter Wendy Lloyd about how he plans to wow the crowd at the Civic.
Dudley’s Darren McDermott also gives his learned view of the headline fight, ahead of his Commonwealth title warm-up bout against Jamie Ambler.
‘Macca’ will step into the ring on the show just 28 days before taking on Darren Barker for the belt at Watford Coliseum.

I’m afraid this is anything but a big fight – the opponent has lost 3 fights out of 3 in Ghana. It’s very poor fare for the Wolverhampton paying public and Sky TV viewers. Shame on the promoters.
