UFC 67= Lame Ass!

My little brother placed 3rd in 130lbs. at districts, last week he pinned the kid who ended up taking 2nd... Brackets
My cousin placed 4th at 135lbs.
Its on to Regionals, and hopefully State the next weekend.

Lutter was fined 10% of his purse for not making weight on Saturday. Dana White said he was fucking pissed! I wonder if this will keep him away from the UFC for a while.

Yep, this is where the UFC is going to start to run into problems. They pay cro cop more than all the rest of their fighters and he's never been in the octagon before.

2 things...

1. In case anyone wants to watch the fights from UFC 67...

DNEVNIK.hr

2. Million dollar question.... Why the hell do they check behind the fighters ears first thing before he enters the ring? I never understood this.

Let me try on the question.

There are few places on the body where a boxer can hide something to use in that fight that was also accessible to them during the fight. Behind the ears is where you could put linement or a small object. The ref checks your gloves, the top of the trunks, in your mouth, and behind the ear. I would think the UFC does the same.

Don't get me wrong, i'm not saying the crap fighters should get close to what the top guys do... but when Cro Cop gets $350K and Hughes gets $90K, i have a problem with that. They are about to lose Brandon Vera for this very reason... they don't want to pay him anything.
