Does anyone like Arona's fighting style?
I get the general feeling on Sherdog that most people dont like Arona's style. Do you like or dislike his style and explain why.

I like. Why? He is the best grapler in mma and only was beat 2 times (one was a NC against ramapage and a very close decision against Fedor) and a Bs decision against Wand.

He got KTFO against Rampage it wasn't a no contest and he also got knocked out by Rua. And I hate his fighting style because he doesn't try to finish the fight. He tries for the decision by laying on top of people and then complains when it doesn't go his way

I like watching him fight. Arona can be boring at times by not pressing the action on the ground, but he's also explosive as hell and has some mean kicks (ask Rampage). I do think he needs to evolve as a MMAist and train more stand-up, but he's got great potential to evolve into one of the best 205 lb. fighters ever if he focuses on balancing out his skills.

I love Arona as a fighter. I would pay 30 bucks to watch him eat a chicken fajita, then LNP the toilet.

If arona is boring.... what tito and lindland are?

Randy was boring in many fights but still he is a hero here in sherdog.
