Andrei Arlovski will take out Barnett….. it will be a good fight though. Definately a great striking match! Fedor would knock out both of them though. Fedor, in my opinion, number 1 heavyweight. Andrei is my fav though, PITBULL!

Am I reading this right? People are picking Barnett to beat Arlovski? Are you f#cking kidding me? Really?
No, Arlovski wins this fight, hands down. He might not beat Fedor, but he’ll take Barnett.

[...] FiveOuncesOfPain.com was the first to break this story on Friday night, revealing that a tentative bout between Arlovksi and WAMMA heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko was likely to be scrapped due to a hand injury sustained by Fedor. We were also the first site to report the replacement main event featuring Arlovski vs. Barnett. [...]

I can’t wait to see the promotion for this card, just insert the words “former UFC (insert weight class) champion. I wonder what Tito thinks about affliction talking pay cuts. But really this isn’t too bad, now in the lead up to UFC 88, you can expect the Chuck highlights to center around him knocking out Tito, Babalu, and Randy (just for good measure).

This is a crippling setback. Fedor is their bread winner. Without him Affliction only has a who’s who of Ufc castoffs!

I think AA is better now and say AA over the Steroid/Baby Face Assassin Barrnett. Is Barnett still using anabolics like he did while in the UFC when he beat Couture?

what’s lame is he would have fought both AA and ” Jashuo Baaaanett ” now he will just fight the winner.. barnett most likley. should be a good fight though.. i’ll be ordering it on ppv even with out fedor , if the card has tito on it it will do alright i think even w/o fedor

maybe he fights randy in december in japan on hdnet fights? i heard something about cuban wanting to out this together for cable not ppv

AA isn’t mentally ready for Fedor right now. He beat Rothwell, who is a one dimensional fighter–tall striker with no known ground game. Before that he was tentative, fighting not to lose. And before that he lost twice to Sylvia, which really seemed to affect him mentally. The only plausible Affliction fight with Fedor is Barnett, and the org. should postpone that one for a while to let the drama build. They only have so many heavyweights, so let them fight in various combinations that lead up to the Fedor/Barnett finale. If the top two guys match up right away, the loser–probably not Fedor–loses box office appeal in subsequent matches.
