Then it sounds like dehydration and laxatives are on the near term radar. That is, spend some time in a sauna right before weigh in, and make sure he poops and pees RIGHT BEFORE weigh in. No food before weigh in. In a perfect world, he would wake up in the morning, poop and pee, spend 30 minutes in a sauna, rinse and dry, then walk right to weigh in.

You're probably thinking "this is a horrible plan!" You would be right, but you are in the spot you are in. You are asking how to make that number, dropping over a pound a day, this is one way of getting close. Dangerous. But any method to get 2 months of weight loss in 7 days will not be healthy.

Are you a certified trainer or just helping him out?
