is the LH title fight over the HW title fight. Hopefully this sets a precedent and the main event and big bucks go to the best fighters as opposed to the biggest fighters. That's always annoyed me.

Agreed. I know very few will have come to Vegas on Friday night just to watch Tim Sylvia beat the crap out of Gan McGee.

Well, if it was Syilva vs a heavyweight that actually had a chance it might be a different story

Unless Pride sends some of their best heavyweights here, I really don't see anyone in the UFC who can give Sylvia real problems.

Would Sylvia Vs Cro Cop be the main event or Tito Vs Randy

I think I'd rather watch Bustamante vs. A healthy Sakuraba than Sylvia vs. Cro cop, though I'd like that too. I just prefer watching sheer skill over sheer size. If the 2 biggest guys were also the most skilled, I don't have a problem with it, I just hate when some of the best fighters make less than their lesser skilled but bigger counterparts. Like I said, the big bucks and main event should go to the BEST fighters and weight should not be a factor.

The guys at the smaller weights are almost always more skilled. Look at boxing. The best weight divison in boxing is 140 lbs
