anyway you slice it this has the potential to be a really great fight. Vera is young and looking to make a name and Tim is looking to get back to being the monster he was back in the days when he mauled Ricco Rodriguez, Gan McGee and Tra Telligman.

I voted for Vera cause he will kick Tim's legs until he can't handle them no more and go for the KO by punch or a high kick.


GO Vera!!!

Flying knee perhaps? I do see your point, it will be harder to knee Sylvia in the face, compared to most HWs. Vera is really agile and picks his shots well. If he finds an opening, I believe he'll take advantage before Tim will. He's quicker and comes off as a more intelligent fighter imo. Vera by Tko.

Vera is a smart fighter. He's not going to just jump on sylvia. Vera's only obstacle is sylvia's reach. He may not KO sylvia but i'm positive that Vera will find a way to submit him. If not, Vera will win by decision. Like Vera said himself, It's going to be war but a smart war.

His knees need to hit in the mid section. It will not be the first time someone is knocked down by that.

True, Vera said in the promo video that he's not going to stand infront of Tim. He's smart enough to know that when fighting big guys, the best tactic is Stick-&-Move.
