Brooklyn Barwick Weighs in

Brooklyn "The Big Deal" Barwick weighed in ahead of her clash against Sindy Berrio in Medellin, Columbia today. She was a fit and ready 119.5 pounds for the junior featherweight affair.

Barwick arrived in Medellin two days ago. While wandering around the city, she stumbled upon a kosher restaurant. Though she ate arepas, a Colombian staple, upon arriving, she refueled on fish and chips after the weigh-in with fellow fighters Nisa Rodriguez and Ny "Super Fly" Nakhjiri, and coach Jimmy Sosa.

Berrio is a 24 year old from San Juan de Uraba, Colombia. A late replacement, she is 0-1. In her debut in April, she faced a very experienced opponent named Alys Sanchez and was stopped in the first round. She was a lightweight against Sanchez. The 122 pound limit seems to be more of a natural weight for Berrio.

This bout is scheduled for four two-minute rounds.
