Roach is training mma fighter Andre Arlovski for his next match with Fedor. Roach says his next fight will defiantly be in the boxing ring, and if Arlovski wins his fight against Fedor, he wants to put him in their with Valuev. It's at the end of the page, there's some other stuff about Manny too.

An obvious publicity stunt to promote an event that is getting no promotion ... any boxing fan should clearly know that a fighter with no boxing experience at all would never be given a title shot by any governing body and I would highly doubt there was ever an instance in boxing history where this has happened.
it's a huge pipe dream
talks of a boxing title fight when Arlovski has yet to even fight a professional bout are ludicrous.
the dude could get kayoed in his debut.

i like boxing alot more than mma but people need to understand it is alot easier to get knocked out in mma than boxing. if arlovski started boxing he may never get hurt because he is used to being hit with thise small gloves.
i didnt think arlovski was going to be able to fight after getting totally annihilated by emelianenko? thats a career ending fight for this out of prime fighter
This is exactly what Roach is talking about with the Tyson like hype for Fedor. There is no reason at all for Arvloski who's a #2 HW to come in scared for this fight. Hes expected to lose, and Fedor is sure as hell isn't this scary Tyson KO artist. Fedor is the most well rounded MMA HW on the planet fight now but acting like this fight is career ending is a joke for Arlovski

Fedor stood agaisnt Cro Cop, one of the most feared kickboxers @ the time before he got shot. If u watch much of Fedors fights, he knocks em down, and then submits them. Fedor is getting old though, so u never know.
Nah, I think Fedor is 31 so he's got plenty of time to whoop ass. Arlovski has a glass face, there's no way he'd make it in boxing, especially as a HW. And for a guy who comes in ripped at 240, CW is nowhere near his ballpark.

Valuev is shot and done. Chagaev could beat him, Dimitrenko, Thompson, any top heavy could beat the Yao Ming of boxing. Dude has no snap, no power with his punches. Worst decision in the history of boxing. Arlovski I would like to see at heavyweight, he might be good. The Chi-town brawler.
The majority of Fedor's wins come by submission. Arlovski should go for broke and fling his limbs like a retard.
Fedor holds golden gloves when he was in the military and trains with Ernesto Hoost.

Fedor's gonna kill Arlovski. I believe he can beat Valuev easily tho. Maybe by KO even.

I don't that this fight can get made. The WBA will not likely to sanction a fight between a non-ranked fighter, let alone a fighter who hasn't even boxed before.
Arlovski knows he has no chance to beat Fedor or else he wouldn't wanna box. If he were to ever beat Fedor then he would stay in MMA and milk a historic win against the greatest mma fighter.
True, but there is still a lot of money in Boxing. The upside to boxing is that you don't get kicked in the legs. I remember the Zab Judah interview where he said he tried Kick-boxing and gave it up right away because getting kicked, especially to the legs, is a bitch.
