Andrei Arlovski vs Cheick Kongo[possible contender match]

Kongo's starting to make a name for himself in the already thin heavyweight division. His striking skills were proved once again on saturday. His sub defense was less than impressive, had it been against a world class submission guy eye'm sure the fight would have been over in minutes. Eye'm not too sure if he's faster than Andrei but it would definately be a true test to Kongo if he could take out the former champ. Eye'd like to see Andrei use his sambo background and finish him on the ground if Cheick proves to be too much on the feet.

discuss?

I think the Mir vs Vera fight will be a number one contenders match. I know they won't say it is but I feel you will see the winner fight the champ

Kongo did not seem to be the fatest striker out there on Saturday. He was accurate but compared to Arlovski his heads looked like they had lead in them.

AA vs anyone is not a contenders match.

Kongo would probably get a shot without even fighting AA.
