MMA fighter Joilton Lutterbach was unable to make weight for his interim world title fight in Brave CF this weekend, despite shaving his head at the last moment.
The 46-fight veteran is set to face Mihail Kotruta at Brave CF 68 this weekend in the Maritim Hotel in Dusseldorf, Germany, with the super-lightweight interim belt on the line. However, he came in 0.22lb over the limit after a gruelling weight cut and won't be able to clinch the belt if he wins the fight. Kotruta still can become interim champion and he gets 20 per cent of his rival's purse.
Brazilian Lutterbach looked almost unrecognisable on the scales after shaving off all his hair in order to try and shed the last piece of weight necessary. But he was unable to get down to the 165lb limit for a super-lightweight fight, which is a rare division that not many promotions recognise.
