Arlovski Making Boxing Debut on HBO
Quote:

MMA star Andrei Arlovski, the former UFC heavyweight champion from Belarus, has been training for a boxing career under the tutelage of trainer Freddie Roach. Arlovski, who has an MMA bout July 19, likely will make his professional boxing debut Sept. 13 (HBO PPV) in the opening fight on the Casamayor-Marquez card in Las Vegas, according to Golden Boy.

Even he is trainning under Roach, Arlovski should stick to MMA...the guy has a glass chin.
Tough Chins are for the Boxers.

Awesome. And for those that don't find the article initially (like me) it is on the right hand side "mini columns"...not in the "main article". You can see AA's pic.
EDIT:
Anyone thing this is another reason AA didn't sign with UFC? Obviously UFC wouldn't let him fight boxing matches...

I doubt his first opponent is going to be that great.

This is interesting.
I wonder why would he do that? I don't think that he is getting paid as much as he is paid for MMA match - what does he get to prove by having boxing match?

Um, I would think the fact that boxers use such big gloves woukd be the reason they seem to have better chins.
