Silvia (30-7) is 6-1 since the fight White referred to in which ex-boxing champ Ray Mercer knocked him out in nine seconds. Although most of his recent fights have been contested at super heavyweight, Sylvia slimmed to heavyweight and outpointed Andreas Kraniotakes this past November in the revamped ProElite.
Sylvia, who won the UFC heavyweight title on two separate occasions and defended it a total of three times, lobbied this week on Twitter and online for a chance to fight again in the promotion. He claims he could beat 80 percent of the UFC's current heavyweights.
White does not agree with that statement, to put it mildly.
"If you look at when Tim Sylvia was in the heavyweight division, I say it all the time: It's when we had the weakest heavyweight division in the company's history," he said. "Him and (Andrei) Arlovski were knocking each other out every weekend.
"I have no beef with Tim Sylvia or whatever. The guy's out there trying to make a living and doing what he's doing. But for him to make the claim that he could knock out 80 percent of the heavyweights in the UFC, what I just said before says it all."

When is the next HW TUF season rolling around? Might be your best bet to sneak back into the UFC Timbo.

What is your aversion to the letters a & d?
How does Sylvia beat Cro Cop? Sylvia is a kickboxer, the problem is he's not half the pure striker Cro Cop was in his prime. He'd get worked over by the Croatian and it wouldn't even be close. 30-27 and or 49-46 easily, barring a knockout.
What blueprint did Randleman set? Hit him in the face real hard? Come on, dude. Kongo won with cage clinching and knees to the groin after he got broken by that headkick Gonzaga nailed him with. If Mir taught us anything it's that Cro Cop is more than willing to circling around and clinch for fifteen minutes if it means not being pressured and hit. Did you even watch these fights or do you just look the results up on wikipedia like Wolf?

A prime crocop would literally give tims shins compound fractures with leg kicks and be sited as evidence the sport is too brutal. Tim not fighting CC is the only reason the sport isnt banned today in America.
I see Lulu name droppin me again. Guys, I am sorry to do it this way, but the whole me vs Ludo thing has a secret personal bent....it ties into his "U DONT WATCH UFC U LOOK AT WIKIPEDIA" thing he always says once his other arguments have been destroyed. He and I used to enjoy the UFC...together. But I stopped inviting him to our "viewing" parties....so he assumes I dont watch the sport anymore.
Here is a photo from the last night we were together ;
Ludo. I'll always keep a piece of you with me, even if I no longer want to leave (millions of) pieces of me inside you...

I forgot, you get UFC magazine on your kindle fire so you can remain "in the know". There is no "Ludo vs Wolf" thing going on, your just entertainment fodder as is throwdown. Ya'll are both as relevant as Herschel Walker is in the title picture. So while he's avoiding three letter words in favor of cryptic acronym-esque abbreviations and your at the local cyber cafe breaking from writing your memoirs of a gay-shaw you can both come here and provide Me with amusement.

I quoted the correct one. You cited that your mobile hotspot device was the reason you couldn't post more than a half assed sentence before or pictures. At least now your drivel won't be insufferable to try and decipher. Ain't no wolf left in there, though. Your all gimmick I'm afraid. Gay pictures this, name drop that, lather, rinse, repeat ad nauseum.

I suppose I could never be as diverse or as clever as your biting witticisms are. "there is no wolf left, ur posts sucks now, u dont watch fites u just look at results". That shit is scathing bro. Really. But it's good to know I still have fans.

I suppose your about one schtick away from being a full on faggot. But don't take My word for it, just look back on the pictures you spent a good half hour searching out.

The pics came off my HD. "gay sex" google search. I am not offended by your weirdo behavior though, as you keep referencing this glorious wolf past. And it adds to my inflated sense of self to see this bizarre inverted hero worship
