Arlovski and the Heavyweight Division

[Actualized174]

Maybe I'm being a bit optimistic but I feel like Arlovski has really stirred things up in the heavyweight division and removed at least some of the roadblocks at the heavyweight division.

What do you guys think?

Should the UFC give Arlovski the next title shot after a performance like that?

Should they make Arlovski vs. Stipe?

 

[Haliacmon]

yeah, Pitbull vs Stipe would be nice

 

[Goobz]

Arlovski got dropped last night by a guy that was so badly hurt that he probably couldn't have told you his name if you asked him.

Yea...feed him to Stipe.

 

[Luke Rockhard]

no reason to let him fight stipe. Stipe lost to JDS recently. Let Pitbull and his comeback story ride it out to a title shot. would be a new match up for cain, or Arlovski/werdum II. Win Win

It's about time that the hw champ starts fighting a little more frequent instead of all the contenders whiping each other out constantly

AA got a bit careless going for a kill against a hurt opponent. thinking that he would the same mistake against a still fresh opponent is ridiculous.

 

[Koimpact]

If he beats Stipe I think he could get a title shot. That being said... I think Stipe would murder him.

 

[FrontNakedChoke]

Arlovski vs Stipe could create a very clear #1 Contender but I wouldn't be mad if they gave Arlovski the shot lol.

I like Arlovski and wish him future success, but it doesn't say a lot of good about a division when a guy who got KTFO'd by Kharitonov 4 years ago can come back and knockout the 3rd ranked HW 4 years later...

People criticized the quality of HW's 5-6 years ago, but It's not that much better now...

 

[Total Immortal]

Andrei has the best claim for a title shot at the moment. Hopefully he fights the winner of Cain/Werdum.

Well Browne is a first round ko type of guy he got the power to do it

 

[cuban23]

Andrei has now earned a 2nd shot at the title. Even if he might get destroyed against Cain, I'd rather watch him then watch JDS get pummeled to death for another 5 rounds.

 

[Luke Rockhard]

i thought the same against browne. I was against that match up and look how that turned out. I always expect Arlovski to get KO'ed, but he's been on a streak.

 

[Spidermine]

Andrei is on a 3 fight winning streak in the UFC.
He just KO'd the 3rd ranked Heavyweight in the world in the 1st round.
He already holds a victory over Werdum.

I think he deserves a title shot.

Happened in the Sylvia and the Fedor fights as well... And yet he is still making noise in the UFC's HW division.

 

[cuban23]

Lol at Stipe. I guess everyone is forgetting how he got beaten up by a totally shot JDS?

He's got a nice victory of Hunt, but Arlovski's victory over Browne was far more significant and impressive. Stipe can wait his turn.

 

[Flamma]

His chin is weak but he smashed up the #3 guy and has very good, by mma standards, hands. Which gives him a chance vs anybody as hw ufc is mostly stand up with it being tough and draining to take down 240lb plus man.

arlovski took 3 rounds of a beating against AJ. Must mean Gus' chin is on a Jonathon Goulet level.

 

[JackWhite]

The Heavyweight division is in such dire straits, that giving Arlovski a title shot after beating Browne, wouldn't actually be a bad thing at this point.

 

[Lord Fauntleroy]

Stipe next, if he wins there's no denying him.

It's good to see people excited about him again.
