Shortly after losing to heavyweight legends in Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira and Fedor Emelianenko, Tim Sylvia downgraded his competition significantly for a “freak show” bout with Ray Mercer, the veteran boxer who got demolished by Kimbo Slice in a mixed martial arts fight.
For Sylvia, however, things went differently–the former UFC Heavyweight Champion was dropped in less than ten seconds.
After scoring a rebound victory over Jason Riley, Sylvia returned to the freak show realm with a fight against multiple-time World’s Strongest Man winner Mariusz Pudzianowski at Friday’s “Moosin: God of Martial Arts.”
Would Sylvia lose another match to an unseasoned MMA fighter? Or, would he show why he was once considered one of hte absolute best heavyweights in the world.

Pudzianowski is a strange one, you don’t become worlds strongest man five times over if you haven’t got something about you. Now the issue is can he can convert that athleticism (if we can call it that) into the MMA arena.
Quite insightful post. Never thought that it was this simple after all. I had spent a excellent deal of my time looking for someone to explain this topic clearly and you’re the only one that ever did that. Kudos to you! Keep it up

A large percentage of of the things you say is supprisingly accurate and it makes me ponder the reason why I had not looked at this in this light before. This article truly did turn the light on for me personally as far as this particular subject matter goes. However at this time there is one factor I am not necessarily too comfortable with and while I attempt to reconcile that with the central idea of your point, permit me observe what all the rest of your subscribers have to say.Nicely done.
