Jerome LeBanner talking about that ass Sylvia(interesting read!_)

TN: If Tim Sylvia wins the heavyweight belt in February against Antonio Rodrigo Nogueira, any chance of us seeing you coming to the US to try and knock him out?

JB: (laughing) It's been a long time since anybody talked to me about the “big sausage”...that guy is so unspectacular. He's so ugly and annoying. Seriously, it would be a pity if the UFC had him as a champ again...he's not Couture, Noguiera or Fedor! When I challenged him like 2 years ago, I was just tired of seeing that guy and reading and hearing fans and commentators saying he was a world striker, etc. Don’t get me wrong, the guy is good, he has some skills and a little bit of heart, but...is this enough? Just ask your US readers: Does Tim Sylvia have the skills, the style and charisma to be one of the greatest? I say no...

I would love to fight him! I would love to fight at least once in the UFC cage. It would be a very nice moment. If it happens, I'll beat down this uncharismatic fighter. I'll show the US fans what an exciting fighter is; not a conservative motherfucker who just wants to win without giving a good show...

Can you imagine, I come in to the UFC, I knock him out and I go back home (laughing). It would be such a mess! If he loses versus Nog, I'll be happy to fight him! Hey, Dana White, make this happen! Or imagine a season of "The Ultimate Fighter" show with Sylvia and I as coaches and we fight at the finale! It'd be great. I’m sure I would train the guys well! “USA versus the world” or “the search for the next heavyweight champion” (laughing). I think the fans will love this show!

I read an article not too long ago that quoted sylvia as saying that he would have destroyed mike tyson in his prime.

uh huh.... whatever, tim.

he's probably underrated, but still shit.

pretty funny
