Tim Sylvia Wears Out Brandon Vera
 Date submitted: 23 October 2007
Author: Alex Marvez
Tim Sylvia defeated Brandon Vera by unanimous decision.
Sylvia and Vera were clinched along the fence for most of the first round, generating heavy boos from the soldout U.S. Bank Arena crowd.
The second round started in similar fashion after Vera made contact early with a high kick and straight right. Vera scored a takedown on Sylvia with 2:10 left in the round but was quickly tied up. After getting to his feet, Vera was admonished by referee Yves Lavinge for throwing an illegal knee to Sylvia’s head before "The Maniac" was completely off the ground. Vera ended the round strong after the fight was restarted, throwing a vicious body kick and right hand in the final 13 seconds.
But while boring to watch, Sylvia’s strategy of repeatedly leaning on Vera and throwing knees from the clinch began to pay dividends in the third round. Sylvia took control of a tiring Vera and ended the fight strong with a slew of punches. Vera said he suffered a broken left hand in the first round and "it altered my game plan."
"My hands were a little bit better than his," said Sylvia, who challenged fellow heavyweight Cheick Kongo to a bout afterward.
