Although he was rocked... The ref seemed lost (on his call when Sylvia goes down), as you can see he tries to call Wagner back & when he cant get him back he justifies his call by calling the fight!
Time to retire fat-man

Many refs do suck
Winer or loser Sylvia is a an ! 310 pounds of ripped body!
that it was a good stoppage tim sylvia had to lean on the ref to stay up
All of Tim's fire left him after the loss to Fedor. Years ago in the UFC when he lost to AA he was out of shape. But that loss lit a fire in him and he came back in great shape to win some fights and the rematch with AA by KO. Had a little run as champ before Randy beat him down. Still had fire in him after that though, beat Vera and was on his way to beating Nog before he got sub'd..
Fedor cleaned his clock and Tim hasn't been the same fighter since..
Word on the block was Sylvia had the possibility of coming back to the UFC within the year, definately not now :p
He was never coming back to the UFC in the shape he was sporting the last few fights. He was 311 for that fight.. Prime UFC weight for Tim was like 260..
I was watching this last night and laughed at how bush league the production was. When introducing each fight, the ring announcer was reading off of a crumpled up piece of paper that was shaking around in his hands. Amateur hour.
260 is the limit for HW, I'm pretty sure, so yea he had some fat to work off but he could've done it if he had the inspiration to. But he's still making money on these small shows, living his dream as a cop every once in awhile too, so I can't see him ever getting back to the UFC after this loss.
265 at least in the UFC. Tim used to cut 10 pds or so from around 275 and be in top shape.. Now he fights on ty cards as a super-HW..
I'm just glad Abe Wagner won! Sylvia, you fat lard, you're done!
Also, I thought I heard him say something about his fight camp not being good for him? Didn't he train at Miletich camp with Matt Hughes & Jeremy Horn?
Sylvia swears he'll drop back to heavyweight.

I'm sure that at 300 lbs. he does have some knee problems. Dropping back down to 265 will keep him walking longer, if nothing else.
Sylvia wasn't exactly a speed-demon at 265 when he was 30 years old. Now he is 35 and 310. He is just lazy and unmotivated these days..
