a half pound is nothing.
If there was really that big of a deal he could've taken off his boxers and wouldve made weight easy

You are talking about a weight change of 0.36%
If they are within 99.6% accuracy thats probably good enough for weighing prize fighters. If you are weighing uranium or something like that maybe you want better than 99.6% but for this, thats fine by me.

the person weighing the scale probably said he was over because the nose was probably above the half way mark and almost touching the metal. Usually in weigh-in the nose could be above the half way mark or even above that. As long as it doesnt touch the top then its perfectly fine and considered on weight. If u listen closely, you can hear angel say its not touching and thats why the guy reading the scale was like alright, 140 lol.
