JAKARTA – Former world champion boxer Erica Anabella Farias was desperate to take off her clothes during a weighing session. Well-known boxing promoter Eddie Hearn was embarrassed by the action.

Farias went down to face Sandy Ryan on Sunday, March 13 last weekend. The boxer who once held the WBC lightweight and super lightweight titles along with Ryan was the undercard in the Leigh Wood versus Michael Conlan match.

The Argentine fighter took to the stage to weigh his weight wrapped in the flag of his home country on Friday, March 11. However, after that he was immediately half naked after removing his body wrap.

Instead, he decided to take off his shorts as he approached the scales, leaving only his bright blue loincloth. Suddenly a fan immediately shouted "we love it" before laughter broke out from the crowd present.

Matchroom promoter Eddie Hearn, who was on stage at that time, immediately looked away. However, it wasn't long before Farias put his shorts back on when Ryan stepped onto the scales.

"Everywhere the eye looks, there are cameras everywhere, do you know what I mean?" said Hearn after the weigh-in session, quoted by the Daily Star, Monday, March 14.

"That's what it is, but for me, it's not trying to control myself. It's to make sure I'm not caught on camera at any given moment where I might be looking somewhere that looks like I'm looking elsewhere."

"I respect that and I think I'll find a place behind the wall somewhere," concluded Hearn.

Farias' action by chance wasn't the first time Hearn had encountered it. The famed boxing promoter also looked away earlier when boxer Ebanie Bridges of Australia, dressed in her pre-fight underwear, weighed in last year.

Farias 'The Panther' is nearing the end of his career at the age of 37 and has a professional record of 26-5. Meanwhile, Ryan, 28, who was born in Derby, only turned professional last year and has won all three of his fights since.
