I never thought about that. Sylvia is much recovered from the fight he had with Couture. His back was fucked back then. He looked strong against Vera and especially Nogueira but his weak submission defense shows a clear opening for Emelianenko's freak-like hips.
Depending on if elbows are aloowed always have the possibility of a cut stoppage with Fedor... he cuts like Nick Diaz. It could be bad for Fedor. American crowd will probably root for Sylvia to support USA! (zomg!) and Fedor isn't known for folding under any pressure whatsoever. Sylvia will be very determined (reflects to the "BRING ON FEDOR!" remark.)
I see Fedor winning by submission in round 2 after a Sylvia 10-9 round 1.
