Well, what should I do then, forget about that fight completely? He hasn't shown a great TDD against trips, plus he has a high gravity centre which will make it easier to get him to the ground, I would be surprised if he gets out of the 1st round, I think Fedor is a bad matchup for Tim.

You kind of should. He has never been that immobile in a fight. He was barely able to move in that fight.

Ok, then I'll say he has never showed great TDD against trips and Fedor will expose him, happy?  |

Yea I think Fedor will win the figt since it's going to be in a ring but I'll be honest I see this fight as 50/50 and it will be very close.

I don't, I think Fedor will win decisively, but we won't know for sure until the fight happens, I guess. Oh yeah, Nog also got Tim down with a trip in the 1st round, does that count?

Yea it does but it's not like guys just walk up to Sylvia trip him nd he goes down easy. It is really hard to close the distance on Tim. But we will find out in July.

While Rothwell is without a doubt a great heavyweight, the only reason I see for him being in the top 10 is because the heavyweight division is not evry active.

No, no he's not. He's the best fighter that Sylvia has faced, but not the fastest and most explosive. That would go to Andrei without a doubt.

IMO Fedor is quicker, he is the quickest HW, though Arlovski maybe is more explosive, I don't know. |

I would say that Arlovski is both quicker and more explosive, but no where near the well rounded fighter that Fedor is.
Hell, I'd even say that Vera is quicker then Fedor. He's just not as explosive and doesn't have the power that Fedor or Andrei have.

Well if Arlovski signed with Adrenline I guess the 3rd best HW in the UFC would come down to Vera, Gonzaga, Kongo, or Mir, and I am not sure whoever you put into that third spot if Adrenline has the better heavyweights because I don't think Rothwell would beat any of them, Nog has already beaten Sylvia, and I think Arlovksi could beat any of the UFC guys but Nog/Arlovski is a toss up for me.

Andrei Arlovski is more fast and explosive then Fedor and Tim beat him twice. |
