Jul 26, 2008 - Here's video of the weigh-in for tonight's EliteXC card:

Everyone made weight, so there's no big news, but I do have a few observations.

• Brian Caraway says his specialty is "cowboy karate." Um, OK.
• Wilson Reis has about as much muscle on his body as it's possible for someone who weighs less than 140 pounds to have.
• Justin Eilers is a heavyweight who weighed in at 218. Why doesn't he just cut a little and become a light heavyweight?
• Antonio Silva looks really good at 257, and the 39-pound difference between him and Eilers is about as big as I've ever seen in MMA.
• I really didn't need to see Nick Thompson in just a jock strap.
• Both fighters in the main event are in good shape.

This is going to be a good card. I hope more than a few people watch it.
