This is the fight I was most looking forward to. Skill (Hansen) vs. Size (Sylvia) in a catchweight fight. Hansen intelligently did not try to stand with Tim AT ALL, and went straight for takedowns and GnP. Switching to submissions on the tall, lanky fella was the icing on the cake as Hansen topped off a legit performance taking minimal damage, but using a reasonable but noticeable amount of stamina.
