Shane Mosley weighed in one pound heavier than fellow American Floyd Mayweather Jr ahead of their non-title welterweight bout.
WBA welterweight champion Mosley, (46-5, 39 knockouts), tipped the scales at the class limit of 147lbs (67kg) in front of a boisterous crowd of around 1,500 at the MGM Grand Hotel's Garden Arena.
Mayweather, 40-0 (25 KOs) and a 4-1 favourite to maintain his unbeaten professional record, registered 146lbs (66kg) after being loudly booed by Mosley's supporters.
Mosley, who has not fought since a ninth-round TKO upset of feared Mexican slugger Antonio Margarito in January 2009, also holds a slight advantage over his opponent when it comes to the tale of the tape.
While the 5ft 9in Californian has a reach of 74 inches, the 5ft 8in Mayweather will have to make do with 72.
Both, however, are renowned for their speed, work rate and all-round boxing skills.
