Frampton has since issued a statement on Twitter apologising to fans and his opponent for missing weight.
"After a long training camp of intense preparation and trying to make weight, I was disappointed that I came in 1 lb over the featherweight limit today. I tried everything I could to cut down, but unfortunately, my body just wouldn't allow it in the end." "I'd like to apologise to the fans that have got involved and have shown incredible support throughout this frantic fight week, and to those that will be cheering me onto victory on Saturday night. Furthermore, I would like to apologise to my opponent Andres Gutierrez - who will still have the opportunity to win the WBC title eliminater on Saturday."https://twitter.com/RealCFrampton/status/890942515708387331 UPDATE: The fight has been cancelled after Gutierrez had an accident the night before the fight.
