Cheick Kongo and Cro Cop are the worst match ups for Tim Sylvia

Kongo is someone with a similar reach to Sylvia and he would not allow Tim to dictate anything. If tim tried it with cro cop he would have his legs and eventually his head chopped down. They are horrible match up for sylvia

I would like to see Kongo beat him, especially after calling him out

I think silvia is wise enought o know that his best option is to take th fight to the ground, which he can and will do if they ever fought. stand up tim fails, MMA tim probably wins

I'd like to see Kongo make Tim submit from leg kicks. Or quit in between rounds.

All good strikers are.

Semmy Schilt would destroy Sylvia on the feet.

Mark Hunt could stand in front of Tim and take his best shots while giving back even harder ones.

We've never seen Tim fight someone who thoroughly outstruck him like these guys would.

It would be interesting to see if he's willing and able to take a guy down if he has to.

Sure.

Gan McGee is definitely on the same striking level as Kongo and Cro-Cop.

I agree. Kongo and Sylvia need to fight soon. I'm sure Crocop will want a rematch with Kongo when he returns. Kongo better not try to get out after them fighting words.
