On this episode of @champandthetramp, the guys chat with former UFC Heavyweight Champion Tim Sylvia — an old friend Roger knew from their wild days back in Maine. From small-town chaos and near-bar fights to title wins and broken bones, Tim opens up about the highs and lows of his fighting career. The crew dives into hunting stories, Myspace hookups, and the dangers of slap fighting, all while reminiscing about the old days. It’s part fight history, part Maine mischief — and all entertainment.
