I'm gonna go out on a limb and say that Timmy vs. Thompson would probably be competitive and whatever happened it would be pretty funny so make it happen One FC.

Hi all1st AD posted:Tim Sylvia in the last 5 years has routinely shown up to fights in much worse shape than James Thompson has. Let that factoid sink in. A factoid is the opposite of what you want to say Lost For Words posted:This isn't as sad as the continuing existence of Tim Sylvia the fighter, but it's really not something you want to be bragging about It's a good job he wasn't, then!!

Tim Sylvia is the greatest mixed martial artist who, by all rights, shouldn't have been a mixed martial artist. He's the prototype Travis Browne was built on.

HiP Show can't possibly rack up the same kind of damage as having Tito and Rampage running around as free radicals in a constant state of creating and destroying ppv's, female fighters, unborn children, porno marriages, contract terms and their own backs.

david carmichael posted:did you see the xfl. I watched one game when it was on nearly 15 years ago. Still it took place on a field, and not a crazy obstacle course or something. This is why the comparison is odd. Why am I arguing this? I'm not the one who was against HiP show.

I was just saying it was a goofy hammed up version of an accepted sport. I'm sorry. I'll try and be more precise with my comparisons from here on out, only making them with two exact parallels so as not to confuse anyone.

Also: quote:"This has really been a problem because if I do too much on the ground, I miss my hard training for the Glory tournament," Manhoef told MMAFighting.com. "It was very hard. My weight cut was from (224 pounds) and I dropped (to 170). It was hard, but this is my job and what we do." I can't wait for the blurry youtube video of the fight that will come out late july.
