[Dominus]

So he has lost to Tim twice in a row, but who cares. AA was and is a dominate fighter. The first lost was bad luck and the second Tim played it very smart and AA seemed a little nervous. AA needs to show his skill again so people remember who he really is.

What do you think?

[JimmyMoore]

I agree. I am really looking forward to seeing him fight again. Has anyone heard when that might be or who against?

[manntis818]

he will be back in a couple of months.............. like alot of fighters when you lose you title try to win and back and lose aa is going back to the drawing board and macking ne plains to be a dominate fighter in the ufc or anywere else............alot of people think he is losing weight so he can go to light heavywieght????????? you know what yo never know.......... i really think he is a heavywieght fighter and he wills tay there but yes i hope to see him back soon..................they should bring him back to fight cheick kongo

Arlovski Vs. Sylvia 4!

Seriously. Who else is he gonna fight? No competition at UFC. He's gonna fight that Congo guy maybe? Congo looks slow as crap and only advantage he has is his mass.

UFC needs more quality fighters....

UFC prolly will pay for one great HW and drag out another 3 series fight. So Sylvia will fight one guy for a whole year. LOL.

I heard that AA got injured when sylvia checked a leg kick. AA and his camp will not saying anything about it. So, depending on how he heals, that will depend on when he comes back.

Sylvia is going to fight Monson next, who is the number one competitor... Tim finishes him off early first round

I heard AA was dropping to 205 any truth in that?

[rockernhb]

I would like to see AA drop down to Light Heavyweight if it isn't to difficult for him. He would make for some great fights down there. He's got so many big paydays with the likes of Chuck, Tito, Forrest, and he's an animal so who knows, he could very well clean out the whole division. I would love to see him fight any one of those guys...

Arlovski looked alittle off with his last fight with Tim because he had a knee injury that he didn't in tell his own coaches till after the fight. That's why we didn't see the normal Arlovski I believe thats Why he is still out but I'm sure we haven't seen the last of him.

I think that the next fight for AA is going to be against Vera, it just makes sense. Kongo isn't ready for him and Mir is done at least I think, so Vera is the only fight that makes sense.

Arlovski did tear something in his knee during round 1 of his last fight. The NSAC suspended him for a couple months until his knee heals. I'm not totally sure when he's allowed back, sorry about that.

As for his return..
I'm not sure about how he could drop to LHW. I'm not saying it's impossible but he's a jacked / no fat 240. He'd have to lose a lot of muscle and I'm not sure if it'd be worth it... If he could do it and keep most of his strength I honestly think he'd clean house. Tito, Forrest, Babalu, stand NO CHANCE against Arlovski IMO. I'm by no means a Chuck hater at all, I love the way he fights, but I think Arlovski would beat him as well. I may be in the minority but I think Arlovski's strikes are cleaner and more powerful than Chucks.

If he returns to HW, I think his only competition is Sylvia still. I like Vera and think he's great, but don't think he's on AA's level yet. Kongo would get absolutely worked by Andrei. And the new Mir needs cardio out the ass to stand a chance.
