rumored but most likely true

LETS GO ARLOVSKI.

Oh man, I have had this match up on my "What-IF card" for a long time. To Central-Eastern European monsters going at it. It's like King Kong vs. Godzilla!!

I hope this happens!

AA should have been shot for that **** that went down at UFC 70, I used to be a fan but now I couldn’t give a ****, CroCop by brutal KO. But I must say, I’m surprised White is feeding his “favourite” fighter to CroCop so soon.

man i got a feeling AA is going to provide us another highlight reel Cop gettin ktfo!

Arlowski will put up a good fight, but I do not see Mirko loosing twice in a row. He'll drop The Pit BULL!

Arlovski lost his "pit bull" mentality and is one of the most boring fighters today. CroCop needs to retire. His heart is not in it.....

That idea had crossed my mind too seeing the way Mirko has alienated himself from the US fans and rest of the UFC stable. In Pride he was a lot more open (Participating in practical jokes with Bas Rutten against the Pride reps and television commentators). At Pride he seemed a lot happier and more into his opponents. Maybe he doesn't like hsi US fan base or perhaps he doesn't like Dana White and what he represents. Botton line is he doesn't look or act like a person who is happy to be fighting in the UFC.

If Arlovski can go back to his badass ways this would be a great fight, he is the man, if the fight takes place I would go for AA. Cro Cop is still a great competitor but I still would just have to go for aa.

haha kind of like how Chuck was going to knock Jackson out?

Mirko will dispatch Arlovski with little or no trouble whatsoever. He's too stationary and likes to strike and his defense is suspect. The minute he gets hit he'll fall unconscious.

Arlowski has a glass chin and that is the main reason he did to want to go toe to toe with Werdum. I like Arlowski, but he fights "not to loose" instead of fighting to win. I think Sylva's fighting mentality has rubbed off of him. For the longest tme He and Tim were top dogs. Now the competition is the Heavyweight division has been stocked with talent we will see how good Arlovski and Tim stack up to the Pride and non-Pride inserts.

could say the same thing for how cro cop was gonna knock out gonzaga HA-HA. Im going for arlovski on this one, it should be one hell of a fight, Andre should be able to control CC easy on the ground cause he is so much bigger and stronger.

the rumours i have seen for this have Mirko fighting Cheick Kongo and Arlovski fighting Brandon Vera
