Tim Sylvia defends the SuperFight title!
Tim Sylvia defended the SuperFight title! By beating Arlovski within an inch of his life. For 22 straight minutes. It was even for a minute, then Tim just went to TOWN on Arlovski. Apparently he was still pretty far away from the record for most damage in a single fight (Held by Cro Cop over Rutten at ManMMA 412) But yeah. The attempted murder was there. (Conor McGregor is hella-jealous).
Have 9 points in celebration of this monumental achievement!
