From the mouth of Tim Sylvia...

[Captain Equipoise]

"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.

[Ruffneck]

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

The mans a joke

[Bluto]

he get paid well tho!

[chixlegs]

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!

[Bluto]

maybe sylvia was thinking the faster i tap, the sooner i can get to the after party

[Dball]

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.

[Ruffneck]

Sylvias lack of intestinal fortitude is sickening

[Bluto]

sylvia is doing pretty well for a redneck

[Ruffneck]

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.

Damn dude- that was a pretty good line. Had me laughing for hours.
Mind if i steal that line? 

[Ruffneck]

All yours fella lol

absolutely


time showed up for an $800,000 dollar payday and that was about it..

time isn't coordinated or athletic enough to hide his body language...




he tapped faster than her

[Faust]

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

Yeah and his corner was screaming instructions in portugese

[Ruffneck]

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.

Dang Geo, is that Bluto's girl

whats wrong with a nap? people tap out too early these days, no sense of honor!

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.

That was Russian, bro

Tim sylvia got paid $22,222 a second

I think your math is a little off, but he made a disgusting amount of money none the less

[Dball]

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.
