NICE!!!! I CANT FREAKING WAIT FOR THIS!!!!!
This has to be the heaviest (lbs) card in MMA history. Has to be around 5000 lbs total.
How about ones with Giant Silva and Hung Man…
yawn..
Coolguy, you are so freakin’ cool and bitchin!
Fedor and Sylvia are getting along a little well for my liking…….hopefully theres a few chirps thrown out over the scale lol
Have you ever seen Fedor with any kind of attitude? Not me. Cool and collected then he beats your arse.
what about the UFC UFN weigh-ins?
I believe this is in some other article…
BABALU!!
why did Babalu come into this fight so light?
Links to affliction full weigh ins people? this is ufc weigh in link http://www.ufc.com/index.cfm?fa=VideoPlayer.home&gid=11395
watching live on fight network right now…..
I dont understand the “Affliction is gonna fail!” talk… The powers that be in this company have obviously considered the fact that fedor costs more than they are going to get in PPV’s and ticket sales, and they are still going through with it… are they just dumb? obviously not… they are running a very succesful clothing company and probably have plans for the future with this thing… whether it be just a gigantic advertising opportunity for their clothing line, or perhaps to show what sort of match ups theyre going to have as a company, and tone down their fighter revenue in the future.
Affliction clothing wont fail, Affliction MMA will. The reason Affliction doesnt care about loosing money is cause their in it for the clothing line. Even though this is a great card, what are they going to do with the 2nd card?
Fedor vs Barnett
Tim Silvia via 1st round KO.
I don’t know about first round ko, but Timmy will win.
Wrong! and Wrong!
If Timmy wins, it’s just going to throw a big wrench in Randys plains. Will he go back and fight Nog, will Tim go back to UFC, what?
woops, someone said something like that below, sorry
Mike Whitehead via 1st round ground and pound.
You must mean LOSE by first round ground and pound. It will actually be Bobalu by 1st round submission.
Fedors parents probably had to tie some meat around him just so the dog would play with him. I still wonder if Dana is paying Tim some money under the table if he KO’s Fedor??? That said, LETS GO BIG TIM!!!!!!!
LOL… I wouldn’t put it past Dana. I know your still a Randy supporter and if Tim wins the entire Randy crusade is meaningless. If Tim does win maybe he will pull his head out and come back and fight Big Nog… Are you going to buy the PPV? If not where will you watch?
I agree man, I also would love to see Big Tim KO Fedor, Sylvia deserves it.
Just knock him out tim!
I bet u have never watched a fedor fight!
It’ll be interesting to see the implications if Timmy wins… Couture will have no one to wait around to fight.
does anyone even care about couture anymore? hes retired, isnt coming out, bounced because he couldnt choose his fights as champ… who cares about this geezer? he either needs to put up or shut up
MMAMANIA: the weighin’s were on FIGHT NETWORK!!
The Alexander Emelianenko vs. Paul Buentello fight was canceled after Emelianenko failed to meet his licensing requirements.
SOURCE: MMAWEEKLY.com
Disappointing to say the least.
I wanted to see that fight and wanted Paul Buentello to win!
How could someone with a name so simmilar to mine come in 4 lbs overweight?
Justin Levins= Fat Loser
Dustin Blevins= Awesome
I was sort of wondering what Affliction could possibly come up with next. We’ll see. I also wonder why Fedor thinks he’s worth so much when he doesn’t pull a huge draw? Why not charge something reasonable until he gets a fanbase?
I was at the weigh-ins everybody keeps saying how Fedor has no fan base the arena must have only been filled to 1/10 of it s capacity but it sound it like there may be a full house when they annouced Fedor, Tim didn’t even get that big of a response but he got alot of boo’s. It must of suck for him everybody got cheered except for him.
It always cracks me up when Tim Sylvia is at a weigh-in. He ALWAYS sucks in his flabby gut. Just look at the pic. He’s totally sucking in his stomach.
Not only is this a better fight card than any that has ever taken place in the UFC. It’s got more pale skin an body fat than any UFC card in history. This might be the chunkiest card in MMA history!!
Seriously though, Tim’s body is disguisting. And Rizzo is gonna KO JB again, EASILY
AA, Lind, Nog, and the lighter fighters balance it out.
I expect most of the fights to be gas out fests
why do promotions always make a spectacle out of fedor’s fights. fighting these huge circus freaks is eventually gonna take its toll on him. goin in to this card i’d have rather seen 6′8″ timmy fight 6′6″ aleks, what a match up that would’ve been, but aleks hands are twice as quick as timmeh’s. it don’t matter much now though seeing how aleks is off the card.
what happened to Pat Speight?
I wonder if Josh Barnett is still pumped full of anabolics like right after he beat Couture for the Heavyweight belt in the UFC and then tested positive, lost the belt and Dana White kicked him out. Instead of the Baby Face Assassin it should be the Steroid Face Assassin.
dude who gives two fucks about josh barnett.
thats a fight i would love couture to fight.
him and josh barnett 2
i would love to see randy pound on and slam hia fat ass.
with that said…GO TIM SYLVIA!!!
am sure big tim got caught doin roids to
best fights ever
how about Fedor and the Spider both losing on the same night?
Great photography. Keep up the good work.
how can tim sylvia be that sloppy?
Fedor looks soft in that picture. I’d put money on Tim.
Funny how a lot of people thinks that affliction is going to flop ,those people know that most of the this fighter build the foundation of the UFC.I bet you joe rogan will be watching affliction while his doing commentating in UFC and maybe dana white too.
