    I'd like to see him fight David Haye. It might make the HW division exciting for a change.

    I never heard of him, but I would find it hard to believe that a ranked amatuer boxer can take of the head gear and walk straight into a match with the WBA champ and beat him, thats just my IMO.

    David Haye could probably beat them at their own game

    So, some of you think Arlovski with a Chin as bad as anyone in MMA could step into the Heavyweight Division and be competitive with one of the current beltholders? :lol::rofl:patsch

    What fantasy land do some of you live in? This reminds me of some of the Kimbo threads from the past.

    Sure Arlovski is a good MMA fighter but Pro Boxing is a totally different animal.

    It's rare, but I couldnt agree more with your post Rico. I dont really know what the hell some people are thinking, and whoever said Brock Lesnar would beat Valuev in the ring, has to be joking, Brock has no boxing ability what so ever, he would get destroyed by Valuev in under a round.

    Chris Arreola is considered a good HW by American standards. The guy has no athletic ability, blocks punches with his face, is poorly conditioned and one dimensional.

    I think Arvoski could do pretty good as a boxer. At least not be "starched by the first club fighter, he fights."

    Arlovski stays in Chicago. He boxes regularly and you can watch him spar with Fres Oquendo on youtube. He has decent skills and pop for your typical mma fighter. How he would do as a pro remains to be seen....

    VERY ****in' true! :good

    Although Valuev is as slow as turtles **** bro...Arlovski wins...it's not like he's going in there unprepared...Roach is training him...I believe he can expose this fraud. Then when he faces someone else. He get's his ass kicked :thumbsup

    I like arlovski, and I say respect and good luck to him, I think he will come up short against decent heavyweights but atleast he's got the balls to try

    One thing, Andrei is an exceptional athlete, is always in very good shape. Freddie Roach says he is very impressed with his ability, so I will take him serious.

    Arlvoski is going to fight as a professional boxer and sign with Golden Boy promotions. As for fighting Valuev, I dont think that is going to happen any time soon.
