Randy "the natural" Couture walked away with his 5th UFC title. Randy took the one huge advantange Tim had over him, his size, and made it a disadvantage. After the first punch that dropped Tim he spent most of round 1 trying to secure a rear naked choke. In round two Randy came out extremely aggressive, taking Tim down at will and landing clean punches in Tim's guard. In Round 3 Randy beat him at his own game, as he spent the entire round on his feet going toe to toe with the 6'8'' champion. Randy had incredible head movement avoiding nearly every shot that Sylvia could throw, you couldn't even tell that Sylvia had a full 12" reach advantage as Randy landed overhand 1, 2's throughout the round. And Round 4 and 5 he kept Tim guessing taking him down with little effort and dominating the stand-up. It was a very impressive domination by Captain America as he stated simply, "pretty good for an old guy".

Couture beat Sylvia by unanimous decision. He beat Sylvia real bad.

the merely element you may want to be questioning is why the UFC is letting a guy who lost his very last 2 fights come out of retirement and immediatley have a shot on the call? If Randy needs to play heavy weight he might want to might want to bypass via Cro Cop - winner receives a recognition shot ;-)

Randy dominated Tim in the stand up,and on the ground for 5 rounds. Randy didn't have a scratch on him, and Tim's eye was swollen completely shut.
