Speculation, but he'd have a puncher's chance. I don't think he could hang with the best for a long time, even though he can certainly hold his own to some extent. It would be nice to see him try, he'd win some and lose some.

This is the best laugh I've had in a while. Arlovski is not K-1 level and he's the best striker Sylvia has fought.

Sylvia's kicks honestly aren't good enough to beat the top K-1 fighters, but his reach advantage and punching power would allow him to beat the B-level K-1 fighters and he'd probably hang w/ the top dogs. The Goodridge comparisson is a great one. He may even have a shot at getting the the GP finals. Fuck, Hong Man Choi did.
