Arlovski Vs. Vera makes sense

I would think this would be a good match up not only for the fans, but also to see who gets the winner of Gonzaga/Couture. Arlovski and Vera are both coming off wins, and have built themselves up in the UFC heavyweight division. I think it is time to see who gets to move on. I am leaning towards Vera in this match, although I have never doubted the pitbull.

I agree. 2 great strikers, and they're both at the top of the heavyweight division. Plus there is no way this matchup could be as boring as AA/Werdum. Vera will push the action, making it a great fight.

Good matchup. Vera hasn't really been tested, but I sill would pick him to win.

It has to be either Vera or Arlovski for the next title shot. It only makes sense.

Would love to see this match-up. Very tough call but I think I'd (just) favour AA with the winner next in line for a title shot.

That's quite an orignal thought. Never seen AA being matched up with Vera before...
