Arlovski Next to Fight Fedor
Andrei Arlovski will be the next man to step into the ring against the king of the heavyweights Fedor Emelianenko. The bout is set to be taking place at Affliction II, which is scheduled to take place January 2009.
The news of the fight was confirmed by Affliction Entertainment VP Tom Atencio today. This is one of the first bouts to be announced for the event. It has also been confirmed that the event will feature only mixed martial arts and no boxing.
The bout will be Fedor’s first fight since winning the WAMMA heavyweight title at Afflictions debut show “Banned.” Arlovski on the other hand had a fight last weekend against Roy Nelson bringing his win streak up to five fights.
Personally I think this could be a great fight for both fighters. Fedor is credited with being the best heavyweight in the world and his fights do prove it. He finished off Tim Sylvia at Afflictions last event in under a minute. I do believe that Andrei Arlovski will last longer in the fight maybe even having a shot at taking down the mighty Fedor. If he trains right and gets his plan down good Arlovski could become the greatest heavyweight in the world, toppling Fedor would take some effort though.
