Night of the living dead

Tim Sylvia is like a zombie. He just refuses to die. The former two-time UFC champion will face Jason Riley in an Adrenaline heavyweight match-up on September 18. The news comes by way of Riley’s Myspace page.

Sylvia is coming off a pair of embarrassing losses at the hands of Fedor Emelianenko and ageing ex-boxing champ Ray Mercer. Riley, meanwhile, is 11-1 as a pro and the current NAAFS heavyweight champ. (And no, I didn’t know what the NAAFS was either until I Googled it.)
