over the stoppage after Herb saw Timmy's arm pop and called an end to the fight. Tim's a tough, stubborn bugger, isn't he! Was it the smartest move? No. But he later went back to Herb Dean and thanked him for saving his career. Yeah, yeah, go ahead. Make the joke. "Herb Dean couldn't save his career." Or "His career was gone soon after, anyway." Say whatever you want, but I just have this feeling that everybody's been a fan of Sylvia's at one point or another. Sometimes the boys who were over at Miletich's got a bad rep, but Sylvia was just always a little awkward as a fighter, and that kinda made him stand out. The haircut, the height, the way his jaw seemed to hang slack during fights...
But he held that belt. In addition to two wins over Arlovski, he beat Brandon Vera, Assuerio Silva and Jeff Monson. And even though he's gone through a slew of losses recently, they don't erase what's he's done during the rest of his career. He's not the best, and he's not going into any Hall of Fame, but it's hard not to like a guy who took a chance on his talents and went for it.
