"The Mainiac" continues his journey back to said title when he takes on Abe Wagner in the main event of Titan Fighting Championships 16 on Jan. 28. Who's got it in them to predict a successful return to the top for the former UFC heavyweight champion? Anyone?

So I'm guessing he will never retire
Because the only titles that can be consider WORLD title are UFC and maybe Strikeforce and Dream, but really only the UFC one
It's fun until someone gets hurt...... then it's hilarious
The UFCs HW title became a world title when???Sorry but last i checked they have always had the 2nd rate HW division

I wouldnt mind watching Bock beat the living shit out of him!
Can the fans just create a world title and award it to him, so I can forget the fact that I know Big Poopy even exsists?
Maybe he just win the UFC HW title playing his PS3/Xbox..
Come on man?!?! Timmy Web feet.. needs to stop sipping on that syyyruuppp..

I actually liked Tim in that episode, showed he is who he is and wasn't going to pretend for the cameras or for some girl.

That’s true. Timmay just owns it. Yeah, I shit myself sometimes, so what?
Our lives change like the weather, but a legend never dies.
really Edge?
He started saying he wasn’t going to drink…….and then he drank like a crazy

On february 5th 2011 at UFC 126 Jon "Bones" Jones will show the world that their was no need for the MMA community to hype this man because this guy is a beast with many skills and i personally will feel Ryan "Darth" Bader's pain after this fight. SB Nation's public enemy #1.

HAHA, lets do it, we can mail it to him. The MMA Maniac World Retirement Title
I can’t watch the vid at work but if a local show called there title a world title does it count?

If he beats Abe and Ricco he will get a shot in SF, Dream or the UFC

this being the case the guy will be fighting longer than Severn.
He has no way of winning UFC, Strikeforce or Dream HW belt. Overeem would break his face into so many pieces you would need a dustpan and brush to collect them all.
Cain would beat him in literally any kind of combat sport. Even fencing.
Considering Alistair is just the interim and might not fight in Dream this year with SF and K1 aspirations I wouldnt be surprised to see a Big Tim HW Title fight vs someone in Dream.

Unfortunatly, there doesnt seem to be any hope for anymore DREAM and/or K1 shows. At least for the time being, unless someone pulls some magic outta there asses, JMMA is on its way out. :/ Makes me a sad Panda knowing so too :( Hopefully if Dream an K1 do die, DEEP will pickup or Sengoku…
How do you Know where Im at? If you dont Know where Ive been...Understand where Im coming from??
The guy is a mess now days..
but one shot from this dude n’ boy your asleep
they should let him Fight Mark Hunt
and that way he should hopefully get one win… then they can feed him to Struve

Tim would smash the likes of Big Country, and I think he’d beat Carwin up.
He gets way to much hate
Professional MMA Record: 41-0
Nah man
Cardio wise, he’s already done. He isn’t going to TKO anybody in one round and those guys will have him huffing and puffing before the 2nd round bell.

Carwin will have Tim huffing and puffing before the second round?
Lol?

If Tim circa the days of Beating Ricco Rodriguez comes back then I would chose him over Carwin as well to be honest. But out of shape Post Fedor Big Tim doesnt stand a chance

Good Lord
I remember just before Timmy fought Ray Mercer, Jens Pulver was begging him to stop.
Jens Pulver.
The guy has had more comebacks than The Who.
Some guys just don’t know when to quit…….I’d hate to see him get hurt. He was decent in his era but the sport has evolved beyond him and just being a big guy isn’t good enough.
I just hope he doesn’t get his dumb ass hurt.

mr. pulver was right for once. i think i saw that pulver actually won a match in some small time operation.

yeah last weekend
He said he wanted a win so he could retire “the right way”
I hear he’s scheduled to fight again in March

jens pulver will be on the show "obsessed" soon enough.

Timmy and Jens are like The Judds bi-annual reunion tours
It’s been over for years but somebody forgot to tell them

part of me feels bad for the Pulvers and Baroni's of the world
But then reality checks in and I remember that we all have to pay the bills.

I don't mean to belittle them
I just hate having to watch guys take a beatdown who are well past it.
Little Evil especially.

You're right though
When I’m due for retirement I hope I have a better plan than letting people punch me in the face.
Hard to blame a guy for knockin out the rent

Good Luck big Tim
Never understood all the hate for this guy.
With the win over the legend Matt Hughes the gates are slowly being greased. Soon it will be time to open the Shit gates once again.
when you drop a deuce in the middle of a fight
you are going to catch some flak.

For the record I would probably have sex with the belt on just like Tim. IF you think about it how many chicks do you really think he was getting? Slap on that Gold Belt and probably had a whole new following of women.

that is not what it takes..
i thought we were already a cyber couple…shesh..and no..you don’t have to win that..you could buy a fake ass wwe belt and we could just pretend..i don’t fancy myself as the type who would care either way…
Come on though, would you rather be cyber dating me with the title on or off? I mean when we video chat and my belt is blinding you I know that would make you want to zoom in a little further. Haha..

I also dont get the hate
even though he did drop a “deuce” in a fight, cant we all say we have been guilty of that at least once, and really if you are not the one doing his laundry, who cares!

I can honestly say...
I’ve never dropped a shit in the middle of a fight.
Ever.
Arlovski : Kang : GSP : Rampage : Lytle : Huerta : Quarry : Serra : Wandy : Pulver : Alvarez
someone rec'd this??
It was just one example as to why he catches so much crap. Also, there are the images of him on the scooter, the stories from Miletich camp, his one dimensional fighting style and his complete lack of any semblance of a ground game.

I am not even a hater man
Not a big fan, but definitely not a hater. You asked why everyone hated him, that was my take.

it was his stance and his height. how he would fight small for a big guy when he should have used his height as an advantage.

He's dieting and still looks like that?
God help him when he stops fighting. He won’t be around his kids much longer if he continues this kind of “dieting”.
He's not going to win a "world title belt again" not in the UFC or strikefarce anyway
I think he’s a better fighter than most give him credit but he’s hardly up there with the best in the world right now, at his best maybe he was up there not now. I feel kinda sorry in a way for this guy, but he really does put a huge bulls eye on himself and does/says some stupids things.

So that means he will never retire from MMA. The only world title he can attain now is the world’s greatest eater.
now some of the hate is pretty funny
