UFC 67
 
If you don't know who Mirko "Cro Cop" Filipovic is, you owe it to yourself to watch this fight. He's head and shoulders above anyone in the UFC, and it would be a major upset if this fight goes to the second round. He'll be the next heavyweight champ (unless Couture upsets Sylvia, in which case he'll just steamroll Couture in the very next title fight).

Silva destroying Lutter will be just as entertaining. This card doesn't really have any great evenly-matched fights, but there should be lots of KO's.

Main Card Bouts:
-Mirko Cro Cop (#2 Heavyweight in the World) vs. Eddie Sanchez
-Anderson Silva (#2 Middleweight) vs. Travis Lutter
-Quinton Jackson (#7 Light Heavyweight) vs. Marvin Eastman
-Roger Huerta vs. John Halverson
-Scott Smith vs. Patrick Cote

Preliminary Bouts [bout placement is subject to change]:
-Ryoto Machida vs. Sam Hoger
-Tyson Griffin vs. Frank Edgar
-Jorge Rivera vs. Terry Martin
-Dustin Hazelett vs. Diego Saraiva

Lutter-Silva will not be as much of a blowout as people are expecting.

i agree, lutter has insane bjj skills, silva has been prone to submissions in the past.

also, is that right? machida is going to be on the undercard? thats pretty disappointing.

Silva is a BJJ black belt under Big Nog. Lutter may have an advantage on the ground, but it's a slight one. And he didn't exactly dominate those TUF 4 guys. The only way he wins is by divine intervention.

No. You are way underestimating Lutter and way overestimating Silva.

People talk about Silva's ground skills, but he is a poor wrestler, has never subbed anyone, and has been subbed twice. He should be the favorite, but I think it is a fight that could easily go either way.

Would you actually put money on Lutter, though?
