All the fighters who will compete on a STRIKEFORCE® World
Championship Doubleheader tomorrow/Saturday, July 14, live on SHOWTIME® (10
p.m. ET/PT, delayed on the West Coast) from the Rose Garden in Portland , Ore.
Luke Rockhold, who will defend his STRIKEFORCE middleweight
title against Tim Kennedy in the main event, and Lorenz Larkin, who meets
Robbie Lawler in a featured non-title televised fight, required two attempts at
the scale.
Rockhold, shown facing off with Kennedy and posing, weighed
the division-limit 185 pounds after coming in one-half-pound over. After
jogging for about 15 minutes, he made weight on the second try. Kennedy weighed
184 1/2 pounds.
Tyron Woodley (left) and Nate Marquardt get up close and
personal and then pose one day before their fight for the vacant STRIKEFORCE
welterweight crown. Both fighters weighed 169 1/2 pounds.
Keith Jardine (left) weighed 185 1/2 pounds and Roger Gracie
weighed 186 for their key middleweight clash on SHOWTIME.
Lawler (left) and Larkin each weighed in officially at 186
pounds. Larkin was over by a half on his first try but returned quickly to make
the weight.
