UFC 67 All or Nothing

[McLegend]

From Meltzer

Tonight's line-up and notes from the weigh-ins: Travis Lutter (186.5) vs. Anderson Silva (185) Eddie Sanchez (229) vs. Mirko Cro Cop (223) Marvin Eastman (203) vs. Quinton Jackson (205) John Halverson (155) vs. Roger Huerta (156) Patrick Cote (185) vs. Scott Smith (185) Terry Martin (186) vs. Jorge Rivera (185) Frankie Edgar (154) vs. Tyson Griffin (156) Sam Hoger (206) vs. Lyoto Machida (203) Diego Saraiva (155) vs. Dustin Hazelett (156) Lutter failed to make weight last night after being given two extra hours, so the main event will be a three-round non-title fight. Lutter is also being fined 10% of his purse, half of which goes to Silva and half to the Nevada State Athletic Commission. UFC send out a mass e-mail to its fan list informing them of this late last night. Because there are no five round fights, and because most of the matches look to be going quick, I'd be surprised if we don't end up with at least seven fights shown. Even though the odds are long on most of the key fights, there has been very little betting on the underdogs. Even Lutter before the weigh-in problem, as a huge underdog, was getting little action, so the bettors were not convinced by UFC's attempt to portray this on TV as a 50-50 fight and that Lutter has the style to win. The only underdog said to be getting action is Smith

Lutter had like 4 months to cut weight, but apparently that wasn't long enough. More Importantly though...

CroCop and Rampage debut tonight, and I can't wait. Obviously Crocop should pretty much murder Eddie Sanchez, but it would suck for UFC if Sanchez pulled it out some how. CroCop 1st round via Liver Kick.

Rampage fighting Marvin Eastman isn't necessarily an easy fight, but I still think Rampage is gonna win. I say 2nd round ground and pound.


Either way it should be exciting.
