American boxer hurts his pride after bungling entourage member drops sheet exposing his naked body

Andrew Cancio nearly exposed his crown jewels to the world before suffering more misery in the ring

AN American boxer nearly exposed his crown jewels to the world when a bungling member of his entourage dropped a sheet that was covering him.

Every pound counts in boxing and Andrew Cancio decided to take it to a whole new level when he stripped off naked for his weigh-in ahead of his fight against Joseph Diaz JR.

But with a large black sheet covering his nether regions, Cancio looked in confident mood as he used one arm to flex his muscles.

His other was covering his meat and two veg as a trio of show girls had their backs turned to the boxer.

However one of his entourages loses his grip on the cover exposing Cancio's naked body and leaving the boxer scrambling to shield himself from the delighted crowd.

Unfortunately for the 27-year-old it set the tone for what was about to happen next.

Cancio was later beaten by Diaz in a ninth round stoppage when he suffered an awful cut to his nose.

On the main card Canelo Alvarez defeated Liam Smith in the ninth round.
