UFC 67: All or Nothing was a mixed martial arts spectacle organized by the Ultimate Fighting Championship, taking place on February 3, 2007, at the Mandalay Bay Events Center located in Las Vegas, Nevada. This event was notable for being the UFC's inaugural pay-per-view transmitted in High-Definition.
Background
Unlike many UFC pay-per-views, this was the first since UFC 60 that did not feature any championship matches. The headline bout involved middleweight The Ultimate Fighter 4 victor Travis Lutter, who was scheduled to compete for the title against reigning champion Anderson Silva. However, Lutter failed to make the required weight, resulting in the contest being held as a non-title fight.
Welterweight winner Matt Serra was set to face off against titleholder Georges St-Pierre, but the matchup was delayed after St-Pierre withdrew because of a knee injury.
This event also introduced two former stars from PRIDE to the UFC audience. Mirko Cro Cop, who won the 2006 PRIDE Open-Weight Grand Prix, made his debut in both the UFC and U.S. markets against Eddie Sanchez. Additionally, Quinton Jackson appeared for the first time following UFC's acquisition of his contract after Zuffa purchased the World Fighting Alliance. Jackson's opponent, Marvin Eastman, whose contract was also obtained by Zuffa, had previously secured a victory over Jackson in KOTC competition.
Moreover, this event marked the UFC debuts of future Light Heavyweight Champion Lyoto Machida and future Lightweight Champion Frankie Edgar.
