Liam Wilson and his team have called for an investigation amid a weigh-in scandal ahead of his world title fight against Mexican superstar Emanuel Navarrete.
Wilson has threatened to boycott his WBO super featherweight scrap after a Commission employee appeared to touch the scales twice before the Queenslander and his rival stepped on the scales on Friday.
The Australian's team are demanding a fight-day meeting with the Arizona State Boxing Commission while his promoter Matt Rose has contacted senior WBO officials to discuss the matter.
Alarms were raised when Wilson weighed in four pounds below the super featherweight limit of 130 pounds, despite the fact he was just under the weight limit when he weighed himself moments before getting on the stage.
Navarrete,
