the AA fights were duds,the monson fight a miss match,couture and mir exposed his many flaws! he has good wins but relied heavily on his size and akwardness! awful fighter but solid achievements! all i can say about him.
I'm not disagreeing about Syvlia as a whole, but he has beaten some absolutely legit HW's. He beat the best version of Arlovski as well, once in an exciting fight and once in one of the worst fights on record.
As much as I dislike the guy's fighting style I still have to give him his due. Everyone pretty much gave good reasons as to why he belongs in the lower parts of the top ten right now. Anyone remember Joe Rogan's commentary after TIMMEH KOed Gan McGee? Pretty hilarious.
