OK we got my favorite Otaku and fighter ever vs a guy that fights out of Illinois.

Hmmm OK

If it went to the Ground, Barnett by submission

If it stands up Arlovski by TKO

there, it depends on where it goes. Both win somehow

Personally, I think both of these guys should be fighting Fedor, not just one of them. That said, it's a great matchup. I'm leaning towards Arlovski, although I think I'd rather see Barnett win. I won't be disappointed either way.

close fight if arlovski turns up for it.
barnett will stand with anyone to start off with, including arlovski.
but he'll have enough of that and take it to the ground.
arlovski's under rated on the ground, just like barnet is on the feet, but barnett is sure to catch him in the scramble and get hold of something and will end up with a submission round 2 or 3.

Barnett via G'N'P rd. 3. I think he will look to stay close and use his wrestling skills. Arlovski has good groung skills but he has not faced a man as big as Barnett with good groung skills. I think Barnett will Slam him, put him on his back, and rain down punches and hammerfists to Arlovski's temples.

I gotta say Barney by UD. This should be a GREAT fight imo. Both are aces standing and on the ground but I just think Barnett is a little bit better than Arlvoski, even though I like AA better.

Josh will manhandle him standing and if it goes to the ground he has way better leg locks. I think Josh will rip AA's ACL in two in the second.



how in gods name will Barnett handle Arlovski standing? are you being sarcastic?


He stood and banged with Pedro Rizzo, who is quite good on the feet...he knocked him out. Barnett is a good boxer. With that being said, he'll take down Arlovski, pound him out, and get a sub in the 2nd or 3rd.
