Tim has surprised me quite a bit and is a lot better than people give him credit for! That being said, Fedor will win this and here is why, He has the best HW boxers to train with(approx 5 of the top 10 HW boxers are Russian) He has the best wrestlers in the world to train with.... He is a Master of Sport in Sambo and the 3 time World Champ...He can change levels and bang with more Fluidity than most HW... His cardio is top notch for a HW... He doesnt cut weight so no loss of strength.... Basically Tim has a punchers chance but Fedor will close the distance and bodylock front trip into Tims Guard and then rip off whatever apendage presents itself!! I really love Tims Ferrocity and I think he is a top 5 HW because he will fight anyone and has great success at that but Fedor knows what he is capable of and he will do it in the ring!! No need for him to say anything!!

I'm rooting for Fedor. I'd be very upset if Tim pulled off the win. Especially if it's a quality win. If it's some bullshit cut or something that would just be silly.

Second, what do you really see changing for either of the two fighters with a win? Obviously a decisive victory would give fans of The Last Emperor (such as myself) some reassurance of his ongoing supremacy in the heavyweight division where as a check in the win colum for Sylvia could spin into anything from an almost instant rematch to a mad scramble by Dana and the boys to put up some serious dollar signs to bring Sylvia back onto the UFC roster.

Thoughts?
I am rooting for Tim. Not because I don't like Fedor, or I don't think Fedor is cabable of really hurting the big guy. I am rooting for Tim because I have always wanted to see him do well and am... well a fan!

I'd peg odds for the fight in favor of Fedor, but a lot closer than people are giving Tim credit for.

I was one of Fedor's biggest fans for years. I was also a huge fan of Tim's before his second fight with AA. Three years ago this would have been the most anticipated fights in history. But that was three years ago. The last years have been filled with unentertaining fights from both. With this being said, I am uninterested in the outcome of this fight.

I think and hope Fedor will win, but fighting is a risky business, everything can and do happen...

Sylvia winning will make Dana say bad things...

I'm pulling for Fedor, nothing against Tim but theres something romantic about the smaller better trained guy defeating the giant. Like David and Goliath. I also enjoy undefeated champions.
