Sylvia vs Arlovski

[Andrew Green]

Arlovski gets the vote, Sylvia generally just looks "clumsy", he's got size and power, and some decent boxing skills as of late, but overall I think Arlovski is a much better fighter and will get that belt back. Got sloppy last time and paid for it, I don't think he'll do that again...

Agreed.

This should be yet another great fight. I'm going to go with Arlovski again though.

I'll take sylvia, I think Arloski is a better fighter but sylvia is so big.

I'm calling Arlovski. However, in order to win this time he needs to stay out of the way of Tim's hands. I expect he's going to try to take Tim to the ground quickly. It's far too risky to try and stand and strike with Sylvia.

 

[NOZR1]

Arlovski if he can get Sylvia to the ground.

Arlovski is the man, and Sylvia got lucky last time. Arlovski had Sylvia and was able to remain focused just enough to throw that punch.

Although, I want to see Tito Vs. Forrest again, as Forrest clearly won that fight.

 

[Davejlaw]

Hopefully Andrei won't get caught with a garbage, phantom punch this time and will drop that big oaf Sylvia!

 

[trav101]

you know it's going to be arlovski. I think sylvia is a good enough fighter, the militech guys are generally very good, but he just got a lucky punch in their last fight. And I definitely agree on Sylvia being oafish. I'd never want to fight either of them though.

Arlovski


I would like to see him KO Sylvia but i think it will be a submission

 

[WilliamJ]

Arlovski got overly aggressive and careless following up a good punch last time. He will be more careful this time.

 

[FuriousGeorge]

Sylvia is not even close to the fighter that Arlovski is, he's a lummox with heavy hands...his chances are slim to none.

 

[Henderson]

While I agree with all of you predicting that Arlovski will beat Sylvia, I do not agree with referring to Tim as "lummox", "oaf", etc. Afterall...he did "win" the last one. There aren't many in the UFC that can bang with him.

My $.02...

Yeah, his boxing is looking a lot sharper lately. But gracefull is not a word many would use to describe his fighting...

And his chances aren't all that bad really. I put Arlovski as a good favorite, but Sylvia has way too much power and is pretty good at staying on his feet to be written off.
