I've seen enough of Fedor to agree he's the best heavyweight, even if he loses.
Arlovski is right! I mean, just because you step in vs. the best, doesn't mean as a fighter you should give up. Fedor lost his sambo right for a reason. Whatever that reason, if Arlovski finds a weakness in Fedor MMA, then more power to Arlovski!

btw, I predict Arlovski takes this one, 2nd or 3rd round.

I'm gonna go with Fedor.
Although I'm REALLY REALLY worried about this one.
Andrei could take it.

Fedor destroys him. AA's only chance, is a puncher's chance. He may counter and catch Fedor, because he does have speed and power. But I still think Fedor wins it standing up, or he takes no risk and takes AA down to sub him. After what Roy Nelson did to AA I don't see Fedor having any problems.

[Marouuu]

AA is cocky as hell on that video. It's not the words. It's the whole package. But yeah....hype is good. I wouldnt like it if AA wins though. No magic to it.

I hope AA pulls it off cuz im sick of seeing Fedor the victor and have everyone on his nuts every time his name is mentioned.

But they're just so cuddly.

[Problematique]

I cant wait for this fight.

Fedor is not superhuman, he's going to lose sooner or later. Whether it be his next fight or 5 years from now he'll eventually lose, it's inevitable. Arlovski is a top rate fighter, anyone writing him off like he's no threat whatsoever is making a mistake.

what i know is that Fedor gets pissed off when u disrespect him and a pissed off Fedor is an even badder man. after his sambo-loss i doubt hes playing around or playing nice (ala coleman-fight). and i think he liked the attention he got after the sylvia-fight. i think hes 100% concentrated at the task at hand and will be aggressive from the get-go in this fight, which is not good for AA.

arlovski is hands down my favorite heavyweight, but as much power and skill that he has i dont really see him beating fedor. as hard as it is for me to picture i think the best thing for fedor would be to take arlovski down right away and try to submit him.

but i also think fedor has an advantage on the feet. i could be wrong but thats just how i see it. i just think its a dangerous strategy to try and stand with arlovski.

fedor always comes with great game plans so i guess we'll have to wait and see.

if arlovski somehow wins this fight though, that would be aewsome.


my odds

Fedor - 330
Arlovski + 280

[dan the man 67]

I so want someone to beat Fedor already, and Arlovski is as good a challenger as anybody. I've always liked Arlovski.

Up until Fedor lost that Sambo match, I'm sure he was believing he was unbeatable........how could you not, what with the way everybody says pretty match that, and also having as perfect a record as one could have. There's no doubt in my mind that there is some effect from that loss.........as to the extent of it, we'll find out when he fights Arlovski.
