Arlovski should NOT resign with the UFC!

Think about it, with Fedor signing with M-1 and both Randy and Josh Barnett chasing him wherever he goes that means if Arlovski and the UFC can not come to terms on a new contract then his only logical place to go would be M-1.

As much as I like the UFC I would much rather see Andrei Arlovski fight Fedor, Randy, and Barnett than Nog, Vera, Tim for a 4th time, and a washed up Cro Cop. Not to mention there are still a lot of top hw's out there they could still go after to fatten up the division. They could potentially pick up Hunt, A. Emelianenko, Monson, Fujita, Rothwell, Randleman, even Mark Coleman. I believe if the UFC loses Arlovski they will have a BIG problem on their hands.

According to Dana, Hunt is under contract with the UFC.

And you guys are going crazy with this M-1 talk.

seriously... I think people are forgetting that BoDog also had Fedor, its not like their a threat to UFC and Calvin Ayre is also a Billionaire like Mark Cuban (supposed guy who is helping back M-1)...

The UFC doesn't really NEED Arlovski. If I see 4 more Heavyweights leave then maybe I will agree, but they are just fine right now.

I think the UFC is good for him. The window of opportunity just opened up for him, he might as well take it. To go to M-1 to just fight Randy, would not be a good choice.

Man... if M-1 could get Fedor, Randy, Barnett, and Arlovski, that's a fuckin scary ass HW division. Arlovski is very underrated these days just because Dana doesn't want to give him the hype because he was boring in his last few fights. Arlovski has the skills to beat anyone.
