Tim Sylvia Your gonna get raped!

Tim had beter start praying. He will need more than armbar defense to survive this fight.

alot of guys wont’ fight him? ummmm….how about randy?
stupid sylvia

lets hope tim dosn’t literally crap his pants like in the past. ugh haha.

poor silva they must be pumping him full of stupid
he keeps believing he has a chance
r.i.p. silva

tym silvia will win this fight

I just hate all the fedor lovers… sylvia is right he probly has the best chance to beat him out of fedors last 5 opponents… So you can all call me crazy or whatever but im saying right here so remember it… Im taking sylvia by tko… and once and for all the fedor love fest can stop!!!!

Oh i can’t wait, it’s about time.. anybody know where this fight is being held and when tickets go on sale?

Sylvia definatley has a shot, not the best one, but he efinatley has a shot. Got to go with Fedor, but I’m not closing the door on Sylvia.

Regardless on the odds, I will bet atleast $400 on Fedor!

Tim is going to get Rocked by one of Fedor’s Nasty Diving left hooks (Lead hand). This will allow Fedor to close the distance, clinch, Twist his world class hips, get the takedown and pound away on Tim’s face until Ti loosens up and then Fedor will either Take his Shoulder or Elbow off Via Armbar or Kimura. Tim was completely Dominated by Couture….so there is no way that Tim will make it to a decision against the Russian….Fedor will win 1st or 2nd round!

Does anyone know if it will be a 3 or 5 round fight? Not that it matter because Tim wont last 10 minutes, but its good to know .

All Hail KING FEDOR!!!!

Easier than HMC. Fedor by Hogan leg drop.

I hate to say it, but believe that Tim will win this fight, especially if he is ready mentally. If he has it in his head how great fedor is and is scared of him then he will lose.

Fedor and Matt Hughes are very similiar. Both were great in their era. Both still are, but in this new era of mma Fedor would probably still remain a top 10 HW, but not at the top. A lot of people thought Matt Hughes wqas unstoppable. They have to realize the same about Fedor. He has not had a decent opponent since the day that GSP exposed Hughes, if not before and he no longer in this day of mma be the same as 5 years ago

He trains a lot of armbar defense. Really? That must be since after Mir broke his arm.

Not to mention of his 4 loses, 3 have been by submission. Well, at least he knows where Fedor is headed in this fight.

Probably not the best idea to reveal your strategy or training regimen.

Fedor via armbar.

I guess a lamb is better than a can.

I think Tim definitely has a shot at winning this. Regardless of the outcome, I am excited to see if Fedor’s skills have atrophied at all in the past 2 years of no serious competition.

im a big fedor fan, but sylvia is no joke. easily one of the toughest heavyweights anyone can face at the moment. You have to realize that silvia has been fighting the toughest guys as of recently…randy, arlovksi, noguera etc so that will only make him stronger. This wont be an easy win for eihter guy. lets not forget he destroyed noguera the entire time, and if he would have been more careful on not to getting caught, he would have certainly knocked him out or won either way. everyone is saying noguera this and that and he should be fighting fedor again etc. but in reality, this is a tougher match for FEDOR then noguera ever was!

silvia has a huge reach advantage and you will see fedor struggle with that, but unless fedor doesnt come out like his usual self i dont see sylvia winning in the end.

Has Fedor ever been drug tested? Not accusing him, just wondering.

Will this be in a cage or a ring? Elbows?

Sylvia lacks that killer instict and is scared of getting hit, he really should have won that fight against Nog. I want to see Fedor fight Randy. That will have everyone pumped and would be the biggest fight ever, that is the only reason I want Fedor to win. If he loses it will destroy the biggest matchup ever in MMA. Dana put the brakes on that one and he is now hoping Sylvia can do it because he dosn’t have total and full control over a Fedor vs Randy fight. Greedy bald headed prick.

Sylvia cant even get laid, I.E. hes lame as appearance on the show blind date. I have noticed that he just dosen’t seem to have the drive he once had. Could it be hes off the steriods?

if he is going to keep this standing I want him to be the Tim sylvia that took on cabbage. There was a man who went in hungry and left it all in the cage.

Those are awful long arms you got stickin out there Timmay! Keep them tucked in or Fedor will snap one of them in 2! I know its not much of a comparison, but HMC was what 7’6" and Fedor was able to close the gap very quickly. I’m not saying HMC is anywhere near the level of Tim, but Fedor’s good. And he does what he does best VERY well.

This is a make or break fight. If Tim wins he gains back alot of respect, and all that were doubting Fedor because of his lack of competitive opponents recently will be proved right. If Fedor wins it cements him as the best heavyweight in the world, lets just see if the Randy fight ever happens.

I hope fedor breaks tim tims arm in two. The only thing timmy has going for him is his size.

i’m not saying Tim has a weak chin but all it takes is 1 solid shot to immobilize him. Everytime he gets rocked, his energy goes down drasticly. Fedor is quick on his feet like a cat and his standup is overshadowed by his patented lightning quick armbar. He’s always on his toes, constantly moving sideways looking for angles and shifts all of his body weight into his punches. Watching him fight, you could tell he’s thinking couple steps ahead usually trying to throw the other guy off balance and attacks usually when misdirecting his opponent. Tim’s only chance is to bring a sprawl and make this a boxing match like he says. Might sound funny but I think the fighter whos able to keep their BALANCE while throwing off the other guy will win. Tim should have the phys advantage since he’s bigger and more sturdy but Fedor’s the master at that.

I think fedor is more aggressive and is gonna come at tim hard like randy did when he won and tim is not gonna know what hit him!

WAR FEDOR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Sylvia via Unam decision, he will use the same gameplan as he did against Brandon Vera. Take em, clinch them, hold them.

WAR TIM! Tim has to win…The drama, hate and surprise that it would cause just makes me salivate.

Tim can train all the armbar defense he wants cause sometimes Fedor will just beat you up. Remember when tim got beat up by Randy? That was nothing compared to Fedor’s GNP. For Tim to properly train for Fedor he should fight a mistreated pit bull that’s been starved after he ties a steak around his neck.

i hope tim kicks his azz cause im tired of all these ppl that think Fedor is ironman

Wow cant believe you have figured Fedor out. If only the other 30 top heavyweights who fought him realised they could have trained to defend the armbar as well!!

My prediction: Fedor by armbar. 0:30 round 1.

Armbar defense……lol Give me a break Tim you are gonna get pounded into the prelims……….

ya know i really hated seeing tim fighting because it was always the same non fighting silvia, but in the fight against nog he did atleast seem to have more fight in him than the last few. if nothing else its a better fight than the jokes that fedor has been fighting. actually i shouldnt call them jokes, any of them could still kick my ass in about 2 seconds.

The dynamics of Sylvia beating Fedor just dont work out for Fedor. If Fedor loses, he will fall heavily from being considered one of the best fighters in the world, and become more subject to talks with a prime MMA organization that can provide enough fighters for Fedor to redeem himself (which, for right now… outside of Mir and possibly Arlovski doesn’t include the UFC.) If this fight does show Sylvia as the winner, Fedor is gonna have a very VERY long road ahead of him.

Fedor comes out swinging after a few jabs….LARGE…mark my words…GNP or RNC….game over

Focus on your arm tim! Fedor will capitalize your big face and buy a new face after the fight!

Fedor is Ironman. Theres a reason he was ranked the #1 mma fighter of all time. His only loss was because of an illegal elbow….Fedor wouldve been awarded the no contest but because it was a tournament style and doctors said his cut from the illegal elbow was too bad to continue he had to take the loss. Basically the man has never been beaten nor will Sylvia give him his first real loss. Fedor will murder Sylvia by armbar, kimura, choke, KO, TKO, or doctor stoppage…basically however Fedor wants this fight to end is how it will end

Tim keeps on saying he has the best chances of winning fedor and the only thing that he has in defense is his 6ft 8in on fedor. Has he not see all the tall guys that fedor has dominated and taken down and beaten down. If Tim wants to win, he’s gonna have to be better than fedor on the ground and standing. From my point of view, the only chance that Tim has is while standing, once it hits the ground, if fedor on the ground he will submit Tim with a arm bar and if Fedor is on top the referee will have to stop the fight for a TKO. Good luck Tim.
