Arlovski seems like the exact type of superhuman specimen Randy has spent a career slaying, but my final call for this one, has GOTTA BE, the fans. This fight would be ridiculously sick. This should've happened after Gonzaga.

I see this one actually kind of boring with Randy tying it up against the fence trying to take AA down. I don't see the dirty boxing doing to AA what it did to Gonzo. It would be a real test as to AA's wel roundedness, but I see it ultimately going his way when there is an opening.

Yeah, Arlovski has pretty solid takedown defense these days. Add in his striking and it's a bad match up for Randy.

Completely agree with what Ramma said, except I don't see couture GnPing AA even a little.

AA is very fast, but he is also very strong, which (imo) would leave Randy with huge problems.
