Maybe a wake up call, and a stint in M1 will make you a more agressive fighter. As you are now you are boring to watch. Goodbye Tim “The Turtle” Sylvia!

Great question! I often times find myself thinking the same thing about most... Ditto. It's like fanboys of the worst order. The reason people "don't care" about fighters outside of the UFC is because the UFC is supposed to be the best. People get to know and like certain fighters in the UFC while not giving that much if any attention to other promotions, that doesn't make them any less of a fan. If you like football do you have to like the NFL, NFL Europe, Arena Football, Canadian Football, and Austraillian Rules Football, why is fighting any different. The best fighters are supposed to be in the UFC, and is boring as Sylvia may be (lets not forget he's a cheater), he is one of the best. I hate him as much as everyone else, I boo him at the weigh ins and complain about him being on the card, but he wins. No matter how boring he is, the UFC will lose a lot of fans if they aren't keeping the best fighters. I would be more than happy to never watch Sylvia or Sherk again, they are both boring and both cheaters, but if they are the best (when off the juice) they need to be in the UFC.

Personally, I hope he signs with M-1 Global and we get to see an Aleks-Sylvia match up. Fights with Fedor or Josh Barnett would also be excellent for M-1. If he does not sign with M-1, a match with Sergei Kharitonov could be amazing - I think this would be one of the best standup MMA fights in a long time, although Kharitonov's ground skills would probably seal the fight for him in the end. This is great news for a more competitive MMA scene. While I was never a fan of Sylvia, he definitely is an excellent fighter and would be a sparkling addition to any MMA organization in the world.

The funny thing is that if he could have won that fight in the first or second round. He was really out striking and causing a lot of damage to Nog, but he kept pulling back all the time, he was just so scared and worried about commiting himself or getting hit. I have never seen somoene in such a dominant poisition be so cautious and tentative. He paid for it in the end. Wanker. Nobody likes watching that guy fight. It's more exciting watching grass grow.

Within 18 months all of the UFC HW's will be part of the M1 Global. They have the best fighter in the world and offer great reward. Should be an interesting time.
