Tim Sylvia vs Jerome Lebanner booked for Dec. 31 pro wrestling bout in Japan
Former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia is back on the FieLDS 'Genki Desu Ka!!' fight card for Dec. 31, 2011, at the Saitama Super Arena in Saitama, Japan.
But he won't be fighting.
Instead, "The Maine-iac" will be facing off against K-1 kickboxer Jerome LeBanner in a pro wrestling bout under the Inoki Genome Federation (IGF) banner as part of the New Year's Eve extravaganza that will include Fedor Emelianenko vs. Satoshi Ishii and the DREAM bantamweight grand prix finals, among others.

Jason Miller is a retard with straight hair and curly teeth.Hes a couple of dolly mixtures short of a quarter and spends his time swinging of a tyre attached to a rope! I should have listened to the MMA royalty on here,especially Jay,ANS and ViolentMike who kept reminding me that Mikes wrestling was the best at 185 and 205 and that if Greg Jackson,Randy Couture,Blackhouse,ATT or team quest ever needed any tips on game planning Wolfsalir is just a phone call away

Exactly
That’s blatant disrespect to the Undertaker.
Soon as my flow starts, I compose art like the ghost of Mozart
Even though they all say that they're real, I know that most aren't
Boy you think you're clever don't you, girl you think you're so smart
Come with me to another side of the world... so cold and so dark
Sylvia wishes he had an undefeated streak going.
Do not argue with an idiot. He will drag you down to his level and beat you with experience.
Should make for some sort of funny YouTube footage to watch at work.
