  NoDQ.com > UFC > Tim Sylvia wants to end his career in the UFC
Posted by Randy Gordon on 06/09/2009 at 08:45 PM

MMAMania.com has the scoop:

Former UFC heavyweight champion Tim Sylvia talks about going back to the land of milk and Zuffa for a chance to finish his career in the promotion that helped make him a star. “The Maine-iac” has been on the shelf since getting steamrolled by Fedor Emelianenko at Affliction “Banned” in July 2008. That’s more than a year of inactivity, which will come to an end when Sylvia makes his boxing debut against former Olympic gold medalist and world heavyweight boxing champion Ray Mercer — barely one month after “Merciless” turns 48 years of age — at Adrenaline III: “Bragging Rights” in Birmingham, Ala., on June 13. Sylvia is on a two-fight losing skid and has dropped three of his last four contests. He’ll need to put some wins together over someone other than a geriatric boxer if he wants to be considered for another run inside the Octagon. Beating Paul Buentello at Affliction 3 on August 1 would definitely be a good start.

“I don’t talk to Dana, not at all. I don’t have his number. But we had a pretty good relationship. I know he has said some pretty bad things about me but, to be honest, I think a lot of it has to do with marketing; Dana tries to come off like he doesn’t care. Dana likes to come off as an asshole but a lot of it is an act I believe. I had a good relationship with [UFC co-owner] Lorenzo Fertitta, great guy. So, it is what is. But I would love to be back there again one day, I would like to end my career in the UFC.”
