So does Arlovski get a real opponent next time?
Did it land because AA knocked out Travis Fulton after 14:59 of a lackluster performance?
If so, I will accept it, even though I don't understand it.
It was a great knockout, but it was also against Travis Fulton, a man who is in some ways a legend I feel, but who has NEVER in his 300ish fights beaten anyone of consequence. Plus, if that kicked hadn't landed, after 2 more seconds it just would've been another lackluster performance against a shitty opponent. A few years ago that fight would've been over midway through the first round, if it even lasted that long.
Well he's at least MORE real than Ray Lopez or Fulton.
Indeed.
Anyone think AA will EVER be invited back by Zuffa?
You never know. He's a "name" and they've brought back guys like Hallman and Jeremy Horn, so if he could string together maybe 5 wins with at least a couple of those being guys people have heard of then I could see it.
Maybe if he strings together wins over Sylvia, Rizzo, Fedor, Monson, and Barnett.
Isn't Barnett officially going to the UFC?
I watched this crap. AA and Sylvia both looked horrible, there is no way either one will ever be a top flight HW again. Fulton actually took a round off AA IMO, and Sylvia looked like dogshit.
Oh and Reagen Penn has worse cardio than BJ. I bet on the fight, I thought it was a set-up/squash fight... Reagan is really pedestrian though, no wrestling, no striking and his BJJ is just decent, he got his guard passed a bunch and never really threatened.
I don't want to make a final judgment on AA until he fights another real opponent. Or at the very least, they should set up AA/Rogers II.
As for Penn, yeah, he looked fucking terrible. I almost bet him, too. The only reason I didn't was because he was up to -400 by the time I got around to it and said fuck that.
