agreed ,but i still think it'd be interesting to see him at 205.I wouldn't necesserilly say he has a glass jaw ,but definately one of the weaker ones.

Lidell/AA would be fun to watch. AA said he use to fight as a lhw b4 ufc.

Does no body care that a "british magazine" is the only source???!

It's nice that everyone sits here and talks about "what if". But odd's are AA didn't say this and we are all promoting a bunch silly bullshit.

NAME YOUR SOURCE!!

No one here believed it anyways, 90% of the responses were "I doubt he can make 205". So it's not like we're all in a rouse expecting Arlovski to move down to 205.

I don't think AA can afford to drop that much weight and not lose a little something.

If you are a damn physical freak and can carry 250 lbs, like he can, you need to fight at HW. LHW is for guys who naturally weigh 210-215 lbs and are at a BIG size disadvantage in HW.

If a fighter is the smallest guy in his weight class, then he might want to drop down. However, AA is bigger than alot of the other HW's. Sure he's shorter than Silvia, but he's much more muscled.... He's more physically imposing than Pe De Pano, and even though Monson's a tank, he's only 5-8.

Could he win a few fights at LHW? Of course...

Should he? Absolutely not....

I Dont Think He'l Move But Damn That Would Be A Fun Ass Fight To Watch....

AA is extremely lean at 240-250. I agree with the above posts. If he lost 30 or more pounds alot of that is going to be in muscle. It would be interesting to see but its not gonna happen.

The only way Arlovski makes 205 is if he spends some time in a concentration camp.

He could shave. There's five pounds.
