Nog got to show UFC fans what he's really capable of and Sylvia has started winning fans back again. As long as he can continue pushing to finish fights and remain humble and as agreeable as he was in that video, he'll be on the up.

The part where he and Lesnar are laughing about Mir is funny. I don't know if Mir is really the #2 hw at bjj. Seeing Sylvia lose more does make me want to root for him a little and see him progress after correcting some of these holes. This interview also makes me wonder how Sylvia vs. Lesnar would go. I don't think Sylvia would have a chance keeping Lesnar at a long distance. Definitely seemed more of a likable regular guy. The part where he and Lesnar are laughing about Mir is funny.

He came off very professional and had no excuses to why he lost the fight. He gives all the props in the world to Noguiera for his performance and I like the fact that he isn't scared to say that he lost because of BJJ. Again I hope to see Slyvia come back from his loss and reenter the octagon. again I have to give alot of respect to Slyvia. He came off very professional and had no excuses to why he lost the fight.

It could be that he lost, but he just seemed for fan friendly and less of a douche. Anyone else feel the same?
