Williams weighed in at 160 pounds on the dot, while Volny tipped the scale under the middleweight limit at 159.4 pounds. The WBA Continental Americas middleweight title will be on the line for Williams and Volny.

“I know he’s a great fighter but that’s what you need,” Williams said. “You need the opposition to be great to show greatness and I’m ready to show I’m on a completely different level.”

Williams (17-1, 12 KOs) is coming off of a 5th-round stoppage of Gian Garrido in his last bout on Nov. 9. Volny (19-1, 13 KOs) has won three straight inside the distance, including a 9th-round stoppage of Steven Butler on June 6. 

“I’ve been waiting for that fight a long time,” Volny said. “I’ve been waiting for this type of fight. I have the opportunity now to take advantage of it. We’ve been ready…He’s ready for a war like I am. 

Berlanga missed weight by 1.6 pounds for his WBO NABO super middleweight title bout against Jonathan Gonzalez-Ortiz. Berlanga won’t be eligible to win the secondary title after stepping on the scales at 169.6 pounds. Gonzalez-Ortiz was under the 168-pound limit, weighing in at 167.4 pounds. 

Berlanga (22-1, 17 KOs) is looking to get back in the win column after his unanimous decision loss to unified super middleweight champion Saul “Canelo” Alvarez in September. Gonzalez-Ortiz (20-0-1, 16 KOs) has won two straight by stoppage since returning to the ring after a nearly 10-year absence outside of the ring.
