So he became a cop without any training? Just “come on in and see if you like it”? real assuring…

Btw is that a cop accent Tim has adopted or did he always talk like that?

Mcloviiiiin!!

So he had just as much training as he had before some of his recent fights?

He’s an auxiliary.

Like how he freely admits he would love to cuff Wes Sims or AA. “especially Arlovski. Would hope he resisted a little bit.” Still can’t believe he is 2-1 against the pit bull.

Steven Seagal is not impressed with his performance.

I make a living in the cage, but for the last few months I’ve also been a cop. My name is Tim Sylvia. That’s right, Tim Sylvia, Auxillary Officer.

Get rich quick scheme #299: Sylvia stops you for speeding and when he asks if you know how fast you were going? Say “do you taste my pee pee!”

I bet he built a handcuff pouch into it.

Timmy couldnt beat Fedor even if he pulled a Rodney King on him.

For some reason

I want Matt Mitrione to do a spoof of this, and somehow sneak in: “Dis muthstathe means bidneth!!”

You know it would be awesome sauce.

Little help guys?

I’m not that great with computers. My Shockwave Flash keeps crashing, and I cannot view most videos or see a lot of pictures and gifs posted. I think the problem is shockwave, anyway. Looking at this post, where the vid should be is just a empty white box (like my soul, except its black)

I'm the best ever. You're the most average in a minute.

by slapjaw ackrite on Jan 26, 2011 9:46 PM EST reply actions  

It’s both funny and sad to me that Timmy has always really wanted to be adored and accepted by fans, but is always a dog. Me thinks becoming a cop will not help his cause.

timmy vs pat barry

either a boring ass 3 rounder or someones getting ktfo’d

i think timmy wins, especially if barry fights like he did against beltran

I actually see Big Tim wining that fight 9/10 times. He has better hands then Barry and I think would Ko him quite easy ounce Barry gasses late in the fight. The only chance Barry has is like in all his fights and thats TKO from leg kicks.

by Shocbomb on Jan 26, 2011 11:46 PM EST up reply actions  

yea i think timmy throws some hard leather and takes him out

he has some real interesting fights for him in the UFC, if he makes 265 for his next fight i think he deserves a call back

I agree also, Like I have said a few times on hear in past post about Big Tim. I think he would be a great fit back in the UFC’s HW devision. There are still alot of great fights and winnable fights for him there. And he would be a hell of a test for most any up and coming HW propect to test there self out agasint to see where they stand in the devision.

I really also would of liked to see Strike Force add him to there HW tourney in Brett Rogers spot. I think Tim would make for a way better fight agasint Barnett then Rogers will. I have a feeling if he continues to Win we will see him back in the UFC sometime in 2011 ?

by Shocbomb on Jan 27, 2011 12:07 AM EST up reply actions  

Sylvia would be a great test for someone like Mitrione or Travis Browne later on, or Schaub. He would also make interesting fights for some of the upper-tier Heavyweights. Carwin is coming off that loss from Lesnar, and Sylvia vs Carwin would be a good and credible comeback fight for Carwin. The thing with Sylvia is that he can be used in some way against any Heavyweight whether it be testing prospects or giving an upper-tier an interesting fight.

I won't jump off the bandwagon just because you lost.

by chrisbboy82 on Jan 27, 2011 1:28 AM EST up reply actions  

Well said, totally agree. I’m not a Timmy fan but I want him back for the reasons you described. It’s time.

by Horselover Fat on Jan 27, 2011 7:21 AM EST up reply actions  

Tim Sylvia is now a “credible comeback fight” for Carwin who was destroying everyone in round 1 till he lactic-acidosised himself out? Sylvia would be good for someone like Mitrione, I agree. But the top-level HWs … I’ve seen nothing from Tim in the last months that made me think he’d be anything but cannon-fodder.

To save me some time on 25% of all threads, here's the universal answer to the Fedor-debate: Fedor is the most accomplished MMA fighter ever. That is a fact. If he still is the best fighter at this point in time is up for debate.

by KGNLuc on Jan 27, 2011 11:04 AM EST up reply actions  

It’s not about his fighting style or if you think he’ll be destroyed, but more of being a “name” opponent, a former UFC Champion, and a guy that’s proven to still be around the mid-to-upper-mid-tier of the Heavyweight Division. I see Tim Sylvia vs Shane Carwin to be not that much different than Roy Nelson vs Shane Carwin, which was supposed to happen on the January 1st card.

I won't jump off the bandwagon just because you lost.

Can someone explain what an Auxiliary is?

by Benicio on Jan 27, 2011 12:20 AM EST reply actions  

Auxiliary police on a ppolice force are usually the part-time reserves of a regular police force.

by Shocbomb on Jan 27, 2011 12:28 AM EST up reply actions  

Someone who is not actually a police officer, but thinks he is.

by CstBoog on Jan 27, 2011 5:47 AM EST via mobile up reply actions  

No, that’s a mall cop.

Good for Tim

That’s good he wants to pursue this when he’s doing fighting. I don’t get why people here are bashing him for pursuing his interest and his future when he retires. I bet his critics are most likely the same ones who want Jens Pulver to hang it up.

Hey Finley, he’s cruising the mean streets of the QC brother. He’s looking for you.

Could you imagine Timmy and Steven Segal rollin as partners ? They could train on off days and work on Timmys path back to the UFC and to the belt, it worked for Silva ?

Segal doesn't have anything to do with "that wrestling shit"

It’s a typical new england accent. Heavy emphasis on the words containing “ar”.
