Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Ya Johnson is undersized as a heavyweight but so were Couture, Coleman and Cro-Cop. Only problem with Johnson is he isn't a credible heavyweight considering the fact he fought at 170, which I find unbelievable considering his size.
I disagree that a Johnson win means nothing. Arvloski has piled on some wins lately granted against lower level talent but he still is the 2 time heavyweight champ. Good test for Andrei all things considered because Johnson is a powerful striker.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Beating Arlovski means nothing at this point and it won't be any more impressive due to him going to HW to do it. The guys you listed were small for HW, you're right, and they all got dominated by the bigger guys in the division when they fought them and the same thing would happen to Johnson.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
In all for Arlovski in this fight. Just pointing out Johnson is a huge dude considering that he fought at 170 as well

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
As a huge Arlovski fan i hope he wins a few more and gets back in the UFC he won't be a contender ever again but the HW division needs bulking up. Outside of Barnett And Sergei I can't see anyone else worthy and I love watching him fight.
I hope Johnson goes back to LHW after this regardless of a win or a loss as he could be a contender there.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Arlovski got that glass jaw now from getting brutally KO'd. His boxing is actually on point most of the time.. It's like Chuck though, his chin isn't gonna let him continue in the sport. One more KO and I think he's done. I got Anthony Johnson by TKO, first fight where he won't be cutting 30-50 lbs to make weight

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
After tonight, Arlovski won't go back to the UFC anytime soon. I wasn't impressed with Anthony Johnson either. He looked great in the 1st round but he started to get tired in the 2nd round.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
Alright fight but bigtime disappointed with Rumble gassing and Arlovski looking sluggish at times.
I scored it 29-28 Arlovski but there's probably some fanboy bias to that. Would like to get a review on the last 10 seconds of round 1 because I think the fight clock, 10 second warning and bell were out of sync.

Re: MMA Discussion Thread
On a side note, did anyone notice the gloves Arlovski was wearing in the World Series of Fighting?
Why was he wearing UFc gloves? |
