The weights are in for tomorrow's card. Former world champion Austin "No Doubt" Trout (29-2, 16 KOs) stepped on the scale and made the catch-weight of 156-pounds. His opponent, Joey "Twinkle Fingers" Hernandez (24-3-1, 14 KOs), was unable to even make the weight limit of 156 after stripping all his clothes. He was still a pound over and will pay for that weight issue from his purse.

The card is part of FS1's TOE-TO-TOE TUESDAYS with Premier Boxing Champions from the legendary Hollywood Palladium in Hollywood, California Tuesday, September 8th.

 

Televised coverage begins at 9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT with a junior featherweight showdown between undefeated rising star Jorge Lara (27-0-1, 19 KOs) and Jesus Rojas (21-1-1, 15 KOs). This show will be the first installment of Premier Boxing Champions on FOX Sports 1.

In 2004, Trout won the U.S. National Amateur welterweight championship and after climbing up the ranks as an elite pro boxer, he won a super welterweight world championship in 2004 by defeating Rigoberto Alvarez. He went on to defend that title four times, including a dominant victory over Miguel Cotto in New York. He is currently on a three-fight win streak and is looking for a big win over Hernandez.

 

Fighting out of Miami, Hernandez is known for his fast hands that have landed him in big fights against top super welterweights and aided him to victories against Jose Berrio, James Winchester and Angel Hernandez. The 30-year-old southpaw will get another tough test when he takes on Trout on September 8.

 

Undefeated out of Guadalajara, Jalisco, Mexico, Lara made his U.S. debut on March 7 with a first round stoppage of Mario Macias in Las Vegas. The 24-year-old has ended seven of his last eight opponents early including experienced contenders Jovanny Soto, Jairo Hernandez and Oscar Ibarra. His second opportunity in the U.S. will see him step up in competition to take on the once-beaten Rojas.

 

Representing Caguas, Puerto Rico, Rojas will be fighting for the first time in California as a professional on September 8. The 28-year-old comes into the fight on a three-match winning streak, having not lost since 2008. He owns victories over Juan Carlos Pena, Jose Luis Araiza and Reynaldo Lopez and hopes to add an even more impressive name in Lara to that list.
