The war of words erupted at the official weigh-in for Saturday's rematch between IBF super featherweight champion Juan Carlos Salgado (26-1-1, 16KOs) and mandatory challenger Argenis Mendez (20-2, 10KOs), which takes place at The Hangar in Costa Mesa, California. Mendez came in at 129.1/5-pounds, while Salgado was 129.1/2-pounds. When they fought in September 2011, Salgado won what some called a controversial decision.
