UFC News: Tim Sylvia to fight Fedor Emelianenko?
Friday, February 8th, 2008
Tim Sylvia has recently commented in his forum that “I have one fight left on my contract I want to stay with the UFC but I am going to go were the money is right now Brock is making more money then me that has to change I have a better name then him and I am a better fighter then him, in case u didn’t know my manager runs m1 so I have a pretty good in so we will see what happens in the next few months.”
Since he has that in with M1, this could actually provide the organization with a real heavy weight for Fedor to fight. This could be very, very interesting to see. Even though we would much rather see Fedor and Couture, this potential fight would at least give us something to speculate on. Would Fedor be able to finish, will he be able to stand up with Sylvia, etc, there are so many comparisons to made.
Even though we are not real hot on Tim Sylvia, he has been the champ twice, and is very well known in the UFC. If the UFC were to lose him it would be a huge blow and only thin out the already thinning heavy weight division more.
