Tim Sylvia vs Ray Mercer (spoiler)

First, video:

YouTube - Ray Mercer vs. Tim Sylvia Bragging Rights in Birmingham Al

Then, comment: LOL! ROFL!

Brutal right hand. I felt that through a PC screen.
Why the hell didn't Sylvia shoot for the takedown right off the bat? He thought he could stand with an olympic gold medalist? Now he's lost to a guy who got beat by Kimbo Slice.

I guess that means Slice vs Sylvia is up next.

Yeah, I think Tim shooting for a takedown would be even worse. Plus I wouldn't call anything Silvia does shooting...I would call it falling to a takedown, or lunging for a takedown, maybe pleading for a takedown.

The logical conclusion is Ray Mercer vs Fedor

Via the almighty MMAmath...

Kimbo > Tim.

Also Mercer > Monson.

Does anyone know where to find video of the other fights on the card? I want to see Salter/Traven.

You know your career as a relevant fighter is over when your victorious opponent immediately calls out Butterbean.
