Quoteworthy:
"I think [fans are] going to see a lot of fights that weren't able to happen on other shows. [PWP has] done a great job and got a lot of great UFC vets. I think Paul and I is going to be possibly one of the fights of the year. I'm hoping to stand and bang and I don't see a takedown happening in this fight."
Former UFC Heavyweight Champion Tim Sylvia is ready to fight like a "Maine-iac" when he goes toe-to-toe with fellow Zuffa castaway Paul Buentello at tonight's (Aug. 14) "War on the Mainland" event in Irvine, California. Tim-eh wants to show the world he's "back" by finishing "The Headhunter," a claim he already made after submitting Mariusz Pudzianowski at Moosin MMA earlier this year. Can Sylvia re-establish his credibility among the current crop of MMA heavyweights? And will Buentello stick the the script and keep it standing?

Buentello has all the skills to beat him minus the mental fortitude.

Tim's such a fuckin can these days
give it another year & he’ll be fighting a kangaroo for a sandwiche in some circus in Timbooktoo (and losing)
Is it possible to be a can crusher while being a can yourself?
cause if so, Timmy is top 5 in that division.
BJ Penn is the #1 P4P fighter in the world without question!
on a side note
i always thought timmys tribal tat was pretty cool…i know tribal isnt the “in” thing anymore tat-wise…but most people with tats have one…hell a tribal band was my first tat
Activia; now with bullshitifus ridicularus

lmao at the fact that no one bothered to comment on this.
i can see someone actually saying that and everyone ignoring the person who said it. lol, good one HERZ
I should never have doubted the wisdom of David W-S or the talent of Junior Dos Santos…and screw Dana White
its not up on channelsurfing.net
is there another site that you can watch this ppv…. anybody?
You can watch it on ESPN 8: The Ocho.
I've got something to say; it better to burn in hell than to fade away!!!
Ha! Nice dodgeball reference........
"Matt Hughes is the greatest welter weight of all time; I would lick the sweat off his hairy chest after a grueling work out if I could. The only person I look up to more than Matt Hughes is Jay; he’s trying patiently to teach me about MMA, being as I don’t know shit about the sport. Thanks Jay, you are my hero and one hell of a Canadian."
seriously though
all ppvs are usually on channelsurfing.net and this one is not… anybody what to throw something out there for me…. please
I never liked Tim
Even when he was a prospect and knocked out Ricco Rodriguez to wear the HW strap.After he knocked Ricco out he did that gay jump that launched him about a 1/2 inch tops into the air screaming “Miletichs the best” all gay and emotional.YOU SUCK TIM!lol.jk
