I see Slyvia under-rated by odds makers. Ya I personally don't like him very much (mainly because he showers, sleeps, and walks around all day with his UFC HW belt on). But if anyone remembers his fight with Ricco Rodrguez where he won the belt the first time, Timmy just kept powering out of any takedown attempts that Ricco tried. I think Monson has a better groun game then Ricco, but Ricco is a bigger and strong guy then Monson and he could never get Silvia even down and Ricco is pretty good at takedowns (just ask Randy Couture). If a bigger stronger Ricco couldnt take Timmy down, Monson's chances are pretty slim.

I see Timmy just jabbbing the hell out of Monson and using his reach to keep Monson off him. Tim will be throwing jab, jab, straight rights all night and connecting. I think this fight has the best value.

If should be a great card with some great fights.
