Arlovski vs. Rothwell on July 19th -- (Adrenaline)

Has anyone else heard this? I'm reluctant to post this but I'll do so with a "take it for what it's worth" caveat.

I have a good friend who is living in Bettendorf, Iowa and attending Scott Community College there. The school's actually in a little town called Riverdale I think. Anyway, he's got friends who train or work out with guys from MFS and he always' has the scoop out of that camp. He told me Timmy was leaving shortly after the Nog fight and I didn't believe it. Well the word now is that Arovski is leaving the UFC and will fight Ben Rothwell on the July 19th Adrenaline or Affliction card.

I've never pretended to know something I don't, all I have is solid but an unconfirmed rumor. I'm not Kevin Iole and I don't have MMA news solid enough to post on the front of Yahoo as breaking. However, for this forum I think it's appropriate to report this for those who want to know.

I know if my friend knows Arlovski vs. Rothwell is going to happen then Sherdog does too. They need to get their guys on it and break this shit. Again, take it for what it's worth, but if you're gonna start flaming just remember you heard it here first.

Edited on April 17th as I believe the correct date is July 19th

Ditto, but if that were going to happen, I would think it would be announced by now.

Well, AA is now able to negotiate with other orgs. (there was a time-period when only the UFC could negotiate with him, but AAs management wanted to wait until they could field other offers) so I guess it's possible.

Me too, I was really bummed to hear Arlovski was leaving the UFC for real. This is one time where I hope my friend is wrong and I look like a liar. But I'm afraid it is true, this guy doesn't make shit up and has never given me bad information.
