Now would be a good time for Ricco Rodriguez to get a rematch…joke

Agree with Fr702 about the eyes…When I saw that picture in a thumbnail I thought it was AFTER the fight.

just putting this out there and for those who don’t know me, Timmmeehhh bothers me very much but the guy hasn’t had a(n) awful career and frankly didn’t look himself of against Mercer…. Look into the guys eyes in that fat Timmehhh pic he looks high or something, he is off and it is slightly concerning

Tim Sylvia went 16~0 to begin his MMA career before his loss to Frank Mir….

His notable wins include: Ben Rothwell, Jason Lambert, Mike Whithead (2x), Cabbage, Ricco Rodriguez, Gan Magee, Wes Simms, Assuerio Silva, Jeff Monson, AA (2x), Brandon Vera
*perhaps not total barn burners but you all know who these guys are and honestly that is a decent group of people he defeated*

Notable Losses are: Frank Mir, AA, Randy Couture, Big Nog, Fedor, Ray Mercer
*sooooo which one doesn’t fit? the fighters that Timmmeehhh has lost to are top notch fighters some would call them elite (time of fight perhaps not now {AA}), but then to get blown outta the water by Mercer? soo all this hate for Timmeehhh is what it is but he has had a decent career… And has been the UFC HW champ….

When was he ever great…? He beat Arlof. and really of all the times they fought only one IMO was even really watchable. Munson… really timmeh he had like a 100ft reach advantage and lets face it not everyone is randy and can overcome a disadvantage like that. In my book he was never great, rather just another champ when the field was meh at best…I mean common Cabbage was a contender, , Mir was flying off bikes when he was not breaking homeboys arm, Lesnar was trying the NFL, randy was to busy fighting chuck, Cro-Cop, Gonzaga, big Nog, and Velasquez(sp?) were not in the UFC(well at least not Huge in the UFC yet) and i think even Heath the kinda gatekeeper Herring was still fighting over-seas. Just seems like he was A huge dude fighting Sub-Par talent.

I think he’s been trying to defeat his demons by hunting them out of several sacks of sliders, a box of Krispy Kremes (on a personal note… yum) and three pints of Graeter’s Black Raspberry Chip (on a persoanl note (again)… yum), but because he was trying to maintain some sense of decency and decorum (not to mention he was having trouble finding another girdle), he decided to wash that down with a Diet Coke.

On a slightly more serious note, he looks like the Pillsbury Doughboy grew some body hair and strapped on gloves. Not a good look for him and hopefully he’ll take his next fight a little more seriously.

You’ve been coughing a lot lately, Justin. You might want to get that looked at.

His last two have equaled 46 seconds. Official time was 36 seconds for the Fedor fight, and 10 seconds for this fight.
