This is probably not relevant since it was like seven years ago... but Arona's fight with Fedor was very close... It went full minutes and IMO Arona could'a pulled that one out... making the only blemish on a perfect record (i don't feel the head cut was really legitimate).

With that said, Arona would be a force in the UFC. And I agree with other comments that Sherkids have no idea how great Arona could be...

Oh, and not to mention that he was dominating Rampage before that Famous Super Slam.

War Arona! Sign now man!

Arona has always been very open to many about using steroids since his adcc days as steroid use is apparently not that taboo in Brazil...

I've always liked Arona and would love to see him in the octagon. The matchup possibilities are endless.

Who's Taylor? And what does he have to do with UFC rules?

i usually never do this, but it is imperative i know the source of your avatar.

strictly for my fwapping needs.


anyway, if arona ever gets in to the ufc, hopefully he'll realize the huge difference in audience reaction to his usual style.

arona has shown sparks of brilliance, but he needs to become more consistent with his non-decision wins if he wants zuffa to make a bid for him.

besides, arona is ALWAYS top quality ko-material. houston alexander vs arona? bwahahahaha.

he's on HgH so he's not lying about steroids. he's the greatest ADCC fighter ever so that means he can just control you on the ground and win in the UFC.

He was beating Jackson, and probably could have won because I think Jackson was actually knocked out for a couple seconds IN Arona's guard.
