message: 6' 10" or 6' 8"??? UFC.tv says 6' 10" but many other sources say 6' 8". Jason Quinn 15:35, 24 April 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Height 

message: Since this is an encyclopedia, we shouldn't provide commentary on fights; we should only report outcomes or specific actions. For example, "Tim Sylvia was knocked down eight seconds into the first round", would be appropriate, but "Tim Sylvia was dominated" would not be. It should be left to the reader to come to their own interpretation of what the unanimous decision and the fact that a fighter lost all five rounds on the scorecard means. We don't need to say more than that. Sancho (talk) 16:22, 13 March 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Commentary on fights 

message: Just wanted to point out, there is no confirmation that Tim Sylvia is returning to MMA in October, he is simply hoping that we can fight in October. Please discuss and change accordingly (didn't want to change it right now). --ShadowSlave 01:16, 9 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Coming back October? 

message: I removed this information again. You re-instated it without discussing (in another form). My objection to it is that it is a minor detail that is being given undue weight by having any mention in this article. It is not something that an encyclopedia should include and it would not be something found in a featured article. Sancho 14:59, 5 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Please discuss 

message: i think we should remove this part: Tim's persona and fighting style are often criticized. He has been accused of fighting "not to lose rather than to win".
theres nothing to back it up or even a source. why are his persona and fighting style criticized? tim is a good guy and a respectable fighter. and being accused of fighting not to win rather than lose makes no sense at all. if your a fighter, you fight to win and be the best. its common sense.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.247.69.78 (talk) 06:34, 20 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Please quit adding information on some alleged bar fight on March 17, 2009. Source it or I will continue to remove it. Thank you. Wperdue (talk) 16:12, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title:  Bar fight 

message: In the reclaiming the title section "The fight was negatively reviewed by fans and critics, citing that the fight mostly involved the two men 'staring at each other with no action at all', and also that 'it was just there to make Sylvia look good'."
If you put things in quote, and they are supposedly from critics you should be able to post a citation for it. Otherwise, it's just fans doing their thing, and that isnt encyclopedic.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.191.113.225 (talk) 18:07, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Cites Needed 

message: Is there a way convey the thorough thrashing that Sylvia suffered at the hands of Mercer without slipping into improper POV?  One and done is rather hard to convey without coloring the article.  Austinmayor (talk) 01:29, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think simply sticking with the facts is all that is necessary. Wperdue (talk) 03:09, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  POV v Mercer 

message: His upcoming fight with Paul Buentello should be removed from his MMA record, as he has been removed from it due to it being within 60 days of his knockout by Mercer.172.164.240.163 (talk) 23:30, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Fight With Buentello 

message: It's worth noting that he weight in at well over 300lbs for his fight vs Mercer and recent pictures seem to indicate that he's even heavier now. Perhaps his weight should be amended from his UFC prime weight of 268 to his current weight. --89.234.93.252 (talk) 21:54, 19 August 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Weight 

message: Sylvia is listed as the IFC Super Heavyweight Champion on their website. but I cannot find information on wiki or sherdog as to when he won the title.  He has fought  TWICE in the IFC,  each time about five years apart. I assume  he won it in 2005 rather than 2001, but I have no clue.  Can someone provide clarification?

message: This needs to be changed  Inoki Genome Federation Sylvia is now expected to face Satoshi Ishii at Inoki Bom-Ba-Ye on December 31, 2012 in Tokyo, Japan.
Needs to read as he fought Satoshi Ishii at Inoki Bom-Ba-Ye and lost by unanimous decision.
