    He won't get that far with that China chin.

    I would like to see him succeed. Would be a pretty great story if, he manage to get a title shot, but I seriously think he wouldnt..
    I hope him a good career though.

    He surely isn´t that bad people are trying to make him after the Fedor fight. He had the right plan. Just the idea of the flying knee was not that good.

    But honestly, wicht fighter would have swallowed that punch in the middle of the flight?

    Maybe the bigger boxing gloves might help as well, he won't be as vulnerable to a 1 punch ko. I think he will do OK but won't likely make the top ranks.

    But he's going to get hit a lot more in a boxing match by guys who are a lot better at punching.

    He should try boxing, MMA may not be for him but a guy like Haye would smash him with his thumb.

    No and if he was to move to MMA then I would happily say Arlovski would hand him his ass, which he would.

    But if Arlovski gets in a boxing ring with David Haye he will indeed be left in a heap in the middle of the ring.

    I wouldn't even have brought it up if Arlovski didn't sign with golden boy.

    If he fights a mid average boxer, this will be the result.Given Arlovski is a B- rated kick boxer.

    Just read on ESPN that we will most likely make his debut on the Paul Williams vs Winky Wright undercard. I also don't see him getting far in his boxing career but I hope he does well.

    Madness in my opinion. Arlovski fell in love with his standup a long time and thats all we hear about is his awesome standup. Problem is boxing is a sport where you get hit in the face ALOT. Arlovski has a terrible chin. His career will be VERY short lived.
