Ouchie-mama. Weigh-ins nowadays are a shitshow by requirement—a couple of dudes, bordering on violence, puffing themselves up to the point of toppling over—but this one just might take the cake. No one expected the kid.

It's unclear if anything was premeditated or not here, but what is astoundingly clear is that the son of boxer Billy Joe Saunders just slammed Saunders' opponent, Willie Monroe Jr., right in the family testicles. This much is indisputable.

During the weigh-in for the WBO middleweight title on Saturday, after both boxers faced off, Saunders' kid hopped on the scale in a relatively cute "me too, dad" kind of gesture. The cuteness would soon end, after Monroe Jr. reached out to pet the kid's gelled-back hair, and the kid responded by cocking his fist back to smash Monroe Jr. directly on the like button.

Bear witness to this truly astounding moment in testicle punchery:

And in case that wasn't enough for you, here's another longer shot with a different angle:

Monroe Jr. seems to have walked away fairly unscathed—despite the kid's second cheap shot kick to the shins—with Saunders in no rush to apologize. In fact, Saunders came away from the whole thing seeming fairly proud:

As for Monroe Jr.'s son—if he doesn't already have one now, he just might have difficulties having one in the future after this incident.
