I'm not the biggest fan but I'd gladly watch in the UFC. I think he's a phenomenal grappler and wrestler and I'm sure he'd mix up an already-interesting LHW Division in the UFC.

He'd get KO'ed by Chuck, though.

Apart from the rules, you also cannot use steroids, and there are a lot of people falling because of that. I never used steroids, and I am laughing my ass off of these people that are falling because of it. I have no problems because of it."

I agree with Ricardo!!!

Arona was winning the fight against Rampage up until the deadly powerbomb.

He's a tough matchup for anyone at LHW. He's just a bigger version of Paulo Filho.

Arona + Elbows could be a great combo.

Arona usually wins in grappling by points.
