Anybody else heard this rumor and do you have any sources or links to info?

It'd be a step in the right direction for a possible comeback for Kerr.

I have heard Kerr has lost A LOT of muscle/weight! I'm not sure but people have told me this. I would rather see him in a few warm up fights before getting thrown back in there....he's been inactive for what coming on 2 years now?

That's cuz he's off the juice. I agree and think that he should have a couple of warm up fights before facing a top fighter. Also, w/out vitamin S he should consider fighting at LH. I think he'd be damn good at that weight.

I think if this true, he is doing the smart thing coming back through ADCC. Sub wrestling has always been more his thing than MMA IMO as he isn't really a natural striker, although he has worked it a lot over the years. ADCC rules are almost taylor made for him and he should do well again

True, but taking on a guy like Arona in Abu Dhabi for his return is still a pretty ballsy choice. ADCC rules may be taylor made for him, but they are for Arona also and he's at the top of his game. I would have prefered he fight Shannon Ritch or Daituro Matsui as a tune up fight.

I just want Kerr back in action. Hopefully he had his lift straightened out.

Arona will be a huge test for him I agree...but I would rather he fight quality opposition in his weight class than take a slightly easier fight.
