damn! 43. I don't know that I would be wanting to get in the ring and mix it up with someone half my age.

He better fucking beat him then. Even if he does Cro Cop will just kick his head off.

Interesting.

He's out powered so the ground game is not there for him, he's out gunned so the stand and bang option is no option, and his reach is a joke compared to that of Silvia ... WTF does he think he is going to do? Win with a flash KO? I don't see anything else as even remotely possible.

Hate to see someone I like not accept the clock. He can still fight ... just not at the level he would need to be able to compete at to be able to hold a belt IMHO. VS Cro Cop he'd lose, vs Rampage he'd lose ... I mean WTF is he thinkig?!?!?!?!?

I agree. This is a very bad match-up for him.

He actually held both titles at one point or another.

yea really, i'm just about sick of the guy

He's got a much better chance in the heavyweight division than LHW, that's for sure. He's got balls to. At least he'll make Sylvia knock him out, and not just sit back and get peppered. I wouldn't say Sylvia is a lock in this one, like the others.

I was watching a few vids of him as a HW and he looked more promising than LHW...but now? I dont know. Very doubtful.
