Despite two tries at the scale, TUF 4 winner Travis Lutter will not be challenging for Anderson Silva's UFC Middleweight Championship Saturday night after coming in at a final weight of 186.5 pounds, a pound and a half over the 185-pound middleweight limit. Lutter's first attempt at making weight was 187 pounds, and after two hours he was only able to lose a half-pound. Tomorrow's UFC 67: All or Nothing main event will now be a three round non-title match, with Lutter being fined 10% of his purse by the Nevada State Athletic Commission (5% going to Silva, 5% to the NSAC).

Im anxious to see if "Rampage" is gonna live up to all the hype. And see how Cro Cop handles the fact that he can't kick or knee the head while on the ground.
Doesn't matter though, he will have his ass handed to him title fight or not.
just my .02 for the day

You know I was REALLY shocked at his post interview with Joe, he seemed very humble and down to earth. His other interviews (UFC.com) were very "character" oriented, with lots of slang.
As of know I can say Im a fan. We'll see who he fights next.
and btw Cro Cop fight was scary. I would like to see Cro Cop and Liddell go at it......too bad they aren't in the same weight class.
