Allegedly, Tim Sylvia will be fighting MMA anomaly, Fedor Emelianenko, on July 19th, 2008, at the American Airlines Center in Dallas, TX.
Nothing official has been announced but all signs indicate that it will happen.
Without a doubt, Fedor and Sylvia hold a spot on most experts' top ten heavyweight list. So, now we have two of the top heavyweights in the world, a professional arena, a professional media outlet in HDNet and one of the brightest businessmen this century behind it all in the form of Mark Cuban.
Your call Dana. All eyes are now on you.
How much longer before all the marquee names in the UFC start jumping ship for a better pay day? Or who will have the capital to start their own joint venture? How many fighters will start their own contract holdouts? Will Rome Fall?
