All of Arlovski's best performances are after Pedro Rizzo brutally knocked him out.

So let's stop with the bullshit 'AA's chin' and 'AA's mind' theories already.
AA seems to have chin issues. Not only is AA vulnerable to being dropped but he appears to be fighting a little more cautiously to guard against that. In his fight vs Rothwell he opened up a bit more and if he can do that against Fedor that will be his only chance imo.

Fedor has good speed and if AA is backpedling Fedor will use strike to set up a trip or throw and dominate on the ground.

I hope can pull ou the win but I think the only way he can is to be aggressive on the feet. Not overly aggressive but if he's hesitant he will get destroyed.
