Tim Sylvia: '... if I do win the belt again, then this time it's never coming off'

Quoteworthy:

"I've had sex before with the belt on. That was back in the Ricco Rodriguez days. The night I won the belt I had a sexual experience with the belt on. But hey, I was 25 years old and it was the biggest thing that ever had happened to me in my life. The girl was like hey, are you going to take that thing off. And I said no, I'm not...I'm wearing it and if you have a problem with it, then I'm leaving. And I hate to say it, but if I do win the belt again, then this time it's never coming off. I'm going to wear it a lot more."

Former division champion Tim Sylvia -- who was ragged on for always wearing his belt during his stint at the top -- shamelessly admits that we can expect even more of the same if he can defeat Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira this weekend at UFC 81: "Breaking Point" to capture the interim strap. Definitely check out the rest of the Sherdog thread if time permits -- it's got some good stuff in there.
