Anyone have Big Nog vs Sylvia for F.O.Y. 2008?

I was just curious to see if I was alone in this? I didn't think Alverez vs Kawajiri was in the same league. If anything I would have picked Alvarez vs Hansen.

Not FOTY, but you could make an argument for HW FOTY.

IMO Alvarez vs Hansen was better than Alvarez Kawajiri.

I'm so mad at Sylvia for being so fucking stupid. He could have ended Nog's career right there.

It was a great comeback but not an excellent overall fight.

i do. realistically, it wasn't as thoroughly exciting as either of the alvarez fights, but it was a vintage Nog performance and i loved every second of it.
