Are there any fighters that don't cut weight?

Shinya Aoki, he fought ben askren at 170 and he's probably a guy who should fight at 145.
 
He used to cut only 5lbs, which is the same amount that frankie cut at LW. Nelson seems to have bulked up a little after he was big brothered by Maia, though.
gunnar nelson cutting 5 lbs is % wise less then frankie cutting 5 lbs
 
I will never be able to fight in the UFC but I could be the champion of the weigh-in, I could even drink a bottle of water and eat a burger before getting on the scale and still being on weight. Those guys should have a bonus ^^
 
Machida

I remember Machida coming in way below the 206lbs limit when he fought at LHW.

Edgar proably walks around at 155lbs. Maybe less now.

Yup, Machida at LHW once came in at 199 lbs!
 
Heavyweights?
Alot of HWs cut from 265lbs. I'vs heard stories of Lesnar cutting from 300lbs while Hunt and Big Foot Silva cut from 300lbs+. Unless you're Lesnar and you can carry around 300lbs well, it doesn't make sense to be that high and cut 35lbs plus to make the division.

Yeah, but that was the most Frankie ever cut lol. He bulked up to 160, most of his cuts at light weight were basically just 2-3 pounds, aka a nice piss and shit.
