Title: From the mouth of Tim Sylvia...
Post by: Captain Equipoise on July 20, 2008, 03:28:38 PM
"That guy hits hard," Sylvia said. "I've never been hit that hard before."


"[Emelianenko] hurt me right away and submitted me," Sylvia said. "The guy's a stud. I don't even think he's human."

"I know that I'm one of the best in the world," Sylvia said at the "Affliction: Banned" post-fight press conference. "I was amazed at how good Fedor is."

I guess Tim's still on that ego horse. A couple more losses will hopefully cure him of that.

I dunno about ego horse but after that crushing defeat it looks like he jumped on a delusional donkey after spouting that shit.

Sylvia looked terrified that whole (36 second) fight.  He should be ashamed of his performance, that was fucking pathetic.  This is why people couldn't stand him in the UFC.  Was the rear naked choke even on his throat?  It looks like its on his chin!

It reminded me of the Tyson Spinks fight where Spinks couldn't wait to go cash the check he got just for stepping in the ring.

sylvia is doing pretty well for a redneck

Well he wants to save that cash because one or two more of them epic displays and he will truly be exposed for the useless bag of shit he truly is.

The twat is a lanky mess of a man with no guts. He tapped quicker than a man using morse code.

Yeah, so he tapped, but fedor put him in some kind of strange choke that i've never seen before.

I really do believe the gutless wonder actually tapped before it was properly sunk in. It wouldnt be the 1st time its happened.

wouldn't it be smarter to realize when you're trapped in a hold and just tap before his forearm suddenly slams your throat?

anyway, sylvia is amongst the best, even though he's not the top. c'mon, the guy had the belt for a while, say what you will about bad competition.

I can buy into that concept of tapping before a choke or submission is sunk in before a move is sunk in during training. But to bottle it like that during the course of a main event match just aint the done thing IMO. I mean its a fucking cop out, a choke aint a choke until its sunk in and if your being paid $800,000 you go balls out until its sunk in. If it aint synched then theres the opportunity to get out of it abeit a very slim one.

I think your math is a little off, but he made a disgusting amount of money none the less
Title: Re: From the mouth of Tim Sylvia...
Post by: Dball on July 22, 2008, 03:07:07 PM
No, the math is just a little under $22k a second.  Damn, thats a shame.  That's the kind of stuff that makes you want the two competitiors to have the same base salary with a huge win bonus.Make them fight for it.

Hey all I am definitely not a Tim fan what so ever but this is the same guy that when he fought Frank Mir he did not submit even when Mir broke his arm. You only look as good as the person you are fighting. How many good fighters has someone like GSP, BJ Penn, Anderson Silva made look horrible? In all honesty I just think Fedor is that good rather then Tim being that bad. Yea he tapped pretty quick but unless you have rolled with Fedor and felt him put that choke on you no one as any idea how it feels. I train BJJ and have had people put moves on me that made me tap real quick.
