Good point.

I heard Sylvia ducked on Kharatanov not too long ago. Pride offered, UFC said yeah, but Sylvia said NO!

Besides Fedor's younger brother could take him.

He didn't tap when he got his arm snapped, he wouldn't tap unless he thought he was going to be seriously injured. Fedor is NOT GOD. do you people get it? I would like to see the fight and would bet on Tim, for the fact that the odds would be great and he could win. I think Fedor WOULD win, but also that Tim could win. How hard is it to figure out that when 2 men fight, they both ave a 50/50 chance of winning?

now i've heard it all. so if bignog fights mir, they both have equal chances of winning? i believe they both have a chance of winning, except that bignog has about 95% better chances of winning.

Assuerio Silva tried to lift Sylvia while they were against the fence. The best he did was break wind though I can not confirm it. Silva was a built mofo in that fight. didn't see his fight with Vera, so I don't know if he stayed that big. Regardless, a muscle-bound guy like Silva couldn't budge him. Fedor could be hard-pressed to take him down, but Fedor has pulled out some big wins. I will never count out a guy that was spiked on his head by that crazy slam from Randleman only to come back and win the fight.

Exactly. Sherdog needs more content on the homepage. Sherdog is more like a forum with some articles written once in awhile. The forums are just getting worse and worse.

General Knowledge about Russian
1) They can't make government work
2) They can't keep a country together
3) They are heretics and don't believe that Jesus Christ is their personal Savior.
4) They can't devise a reasonable gameplan against a fighter with transparent weaknesses and lesser skills (see Arlovski vs. Silvia 3 and Stallone vs. Drago)
5) They can have moderate success and give the illusion of dominance.
6) They can never reach legendary status (go ahead and try to think of one that is considered a legend)
7) Their language sounds like a lot of hooie, no doubt the work of the devil


The bottomline is Tim beats him and unifies the the heavyweight championship becoming the first undisputed champion in the sport.

WTF? Either that was lame attempt at humor or you're retarded. Sorry, handicapped.

You should remember the first rule of holes.

LOL Jarzi. I wasnt familiar with that quote. That is hilarious stuff.


I agree though, any given night anything can happen. Fedor is an animal though. I doubt Sylvia would have a chance against him, but i have been wrong about big tim before.

fedor would put him down with relative ease.. he wouldnt even break a sweat.. this fight would look a lot like the fedor/ zulu fight

[Powerhouse26]

Look Fedor is amazing but he had a difficult time finishing Schilt due to his height so I doubt he would knock out Sylvia. Sylvia is good in his own right (counter punching, takedown defense etc..) and is too tough to get knocked out. Fact is if Fedor won it would probably be by decision.
