Un freakin believable. How could you miss making weight. I understand that most of these guys need to cut a lot of weight to make their chosen weight class, but not making weight for a title fight, c'mon. Anyway, the fight between Lutter and Silva will no longer be a title match. Lutter will pay 10% of his purse, 5% to Silva and 5% to the Nevada State Athletic Commision.

Travis "the Cereal Killer" Lutter who came from the KFC to the UFC for this fight could not hide the disappointment or the physical lethargy from his demeanor. These guys destroy their bodies in the short term trying to cut weight for a fight. I can't help but feel that he was not in top form for this fight due to the demands of trying to cut weight. It could verl well have had a different outcome if better planned. Oh well, back to the old breakfast table. Commiserating over a bowl of Coco-Puffs with a Capt'n Crunch chaser might be just the ticket.

Different outcome if better planned? What plan, meatloaf for breakfast instead of chocolate frosted sugar bombs? Travis never stood a chance, regardless of weight, or what kind of shape he was in. I can't help but feel he was not in top form due to the mashed potatoes and beef he had been eating in training for this fight. What a putz! Maybe Butterbean Jr. will take his next fight more seriously, and either move up a weight class, or start eating chicken instead of mutton, that is if he gets another UFC fight, which I really don't see happening. Dana must be pissed!
