Wont happen. Tim can win the fight but if Fedor can survive what Cro Cop, Randleman and Fujita did to him I am sure Sylvia wont KO him. Sylvia can Sprawl and Brawl his way to victory and with it being a 3 round fight under unified rules Tim can have a slight advantage.
Although could you imagine how devastating Fedor's gnp will be when elbows are added to his arsenal?

Very interesting matchup, not sure how to call it, Sylvia has a good shot in this fight. Anyone know if its ring or cage?

Id guess cage as it is in the US.

Did some digging, apparently it will be in a ring.

I really fancied Randys chances against Fedor in the cage, not so sure now.

Kent Brockman

Went against Tim when he fought Ricco,Jeff monson and Arlovski...... and he gave Minotauro a good beating for most of the fight b4 being caught.

Would not want him to beat Fedor but nothing would surprise me.

This isnt sherdog, so there isnt the same blind "Fedor can beat anyone" brigade on here. That said, I think Fedor will not only win, but stop Tim. Tims takedown defence is over rated besdies his sprawl and Fedor uses Greco takedowns so I see him getting him down and getting it down fairly quick.

Tims best shot IMO is by TKO due to blood leakage from cut....

I went againts Tim all 3 times v Arlovski. AA should have won the 2nd time but he stupidly let him stand up. And the third time, well he was hella gunshy. I think A game Arlovski is better than A game Tim.

I went with Tim over Monson and I think everyone at the time went with Ricco.

I went with Mino over Tim and Im sticking to Fedor over Tim tbh

Tim although unfashilnable is a very good fighter, this fight is hard to call, im leaning towards tim to be honest..

I think Tim is over rated in all aspects, gains alot just from being big and awkward but I dont rate him as an extremely skilled fighter.

Totally agree, I felt AA was always the better fighter but he really made a hames of those two fights.

I think Fedor has the ability to humiliate Tim and I hope that will be the case.

Mark Hamill

I think this will go the same way as the Hong Man Choi fight. Fedor will try to clinch with Tim, who will try to sprawl out of it and end up in Fedors guard. Fedor will then arm bar him.

Sylvia might look bad but he's no Choi. I can see this one going the distance.

Leo?

Tim is one of those fighters that splits fans opinions, either he's overrated because of his success or underrated because of his appearance and style. I personally think he's a solid fighter who has been the more active of the two, making him the favorite over a relatively rusty Fedor.

Nothingcompares

Fedor is Fedor. Fedor will win. I'm guessing submission.

I'm just afraid of it being stopped because of fedors tendency to cut easily
