Fight would take place September 5th. I don't know how I feel about this. Obviously people don't believe in Andre Arlovski. TBQH he hasn't won me over, yet. I don't think he is an altogether different fighter than he was ten years ago. I think he gets beat by Stipe, JDS, and Werdum. That being said he's on a four-fight run whereas Miocic just lost to JDS and rebounded against 41-year old Mark Hunt. Overall I think Miocic vs. Werdum is a better fight but the way title shots are dolled-out are still a little fucky.
I love this! It's nice to see a fresh challenger step up. If Stipe can keep it standing he's got a chance !
FRB says AA was offered the fight and didn't accept either the fight or the date. Either way Miocic is in. Fuck it!
