Nelson Asofa-Solomona and Jarrod Wallace engaged in a heated confrontation during the official weigh-in for their upcoming heavyweight boxing match on the No Limits promotion. The incident, which occurred on April 3, 2026, saw Asofa-Solomona demand that Wallace remove his shirt before stepping on the scales.
Footage from the event shows Wallace complying with the request, after which he made a comment directed at Asofa-Solomona. Media reports, including from Fox Sports and news.com.au, quote Wallace as saying afterwards, "F*** me, he tried to take it off the c***," referencing the shirt removal demand.
The two athletes are scheduled to face each other in a professional boxing match on April 9, 2026, at the Brisbane Entertainment Centre. The bout is part of a larger fight card headlined by the Tim Tszyu vs. Michael Zerafa bout.
Both Asofa-Solomona, a current Melbourne Storm NRL player, and Wallace, a former NRL forward and Queensland State of Origin representative, are making their professional boxing debuts in this match. The tense weigh-in has generated significant publicity for their debut fight.
