Wait, Arlovski vs. Rothwell #3

[Jon Stark]

Glad the mods are letting this post fly in this forum. AA has earned the discretion.

14 years since Andrei last trilogy bount, the iconic Arlovski vs Sylvia 3 in ONE.

That was Sylvia/Arlovski 4 my man!

Based on what I know of you, you'd likely dig the shit out of BKFC. Especially since they're bringing back one night tourneys in April. I kinda prefer it to the current UFC, myself.

Arlovski looked amazing tonight, that dude is a cyborg or some shit, a tried and true fighter

Hah, yeah, it's funny how I went from "He shouldn't be fighting due to CTE" to "Who is next for Arlovski?" in a few hours, lol. There is a balance in trying to protect these older fighters, too, though I don't know exactly how to find it.

Yeah, I love the early days so one night tourneys sound really fun.

Belcher maybe

Yeah, I just looked it at his Wiki page. Man, that guy has done more random combat sports than Rockhold since retiring from the UFC. BJJ, boxing, Gamebred MMA, BKFC, Karate Combat. And he was the BKFC HW champ until they stripped him for doing an exhibition boxing match (against the dude that just boxed Andrew Tate).

That would make sense since Belcher is still on the BKFC roster. And since Belcher lost to JDS in Gamebred, they could try to get JDS to fight the winner if he's interested.

Pieced him up!

It wasn't a competitive fight, Arlovski just has Rothwell's number. He's 3-0 against him in the last 18 years.

One of those times I was very happy to be wrong!

I can't believe Arlovski-Rothwell first fought in 2008. Time flies in MMA years. Wow, I'm getting old.

In bareknuckle tonight? These guys don't need any more CTE. And Arlovski recently admitted he's a 3-time cancer survivor? I don't follow BKFC closely so I had no idea this was a thing until a few minutes ago.

I'm glad you're banking off my idea.

I saw you delete your post, though I figured out the Andrei in hospital bed pic was a while ago.

He wouldn't have passed an athletic commission test, otherwise.

Happy as Hel for Andrei: he got exposure from the Jake Paul fight, cleared cancer, turned 47 and got a belt.
