    Hopefully the bigger gloves helps his chin otherwise he is toast, but Roach is training him.

    Andrei would destroy you inside a round.

    I'm glad because this will show how much more of an art boxing is compared to MMA.:hammert:

    Arlovski has a history of getting KTFO in MMA from single punches. Rizzo, Sylvia, Fedor and a bunch more. I got no faith in Arlovski. Weak chinned chump! I think he's better off in MMA.

    steve or LOK would kill that chump in boxing. No doubt in my mind. Arlovski is a novice in boxing. He's actually been boxing for less time than most guys on this board. I think even Stinger at his age would have a shot against Arlovski.

    I know you're into hype but Arlovski's got no shot against LOK in boxing. No f*ckin' way! You'll actually see how crap Arlovski is when he gets KO'd in his first couple of matches. He's big but he's slow and glassy chinned. He's actually a few years away from going pro, realistically.
    steve dave would f*ck him up. steve's bigger than him too and much younger and faster with way more boxing experience.
    :bears:

    Shame. I would have liked to see him continue to hone his boxing skills in an MMA context, as they were working well (preferably minus the retarded flying knees from 10 feet away). I doubt he gets very far in boxing itself, although with the current state of the division, who knows. It won't reflect very well on the state of modern boxing if he does, that's for sure, but any big guy with a modicum of talent that actually TRAINS like Andre does has a chance.

    I doubt he makes a career out of it, several mma guys have ventured into boxing for a few fights.

    I'm pretty sure he will continue his mma career.

    One punch to that beer gut and you're history, stevie.

    Andrei has no chance because he cannot take a punch. He's just not a tough guy at all. He can give a punch but he can't take one. I honestly don't think he could even beat Butterbean in a 3 rounder.

    Yeah, he's a better athlete, in better shape and more naturally talented. Faster, more powerful, stronger. Even though my chin is probably better, I'm sure he's also a tougher guy than I am. I just have better boxing skills.

    Bullsh*t, steve! You'd fuck up this gangly no-chin queer! The only difference between you and him is that he trains his ass off for fighting while you don't need to cause you probably make more money doing what you do since MMA doesn't pay sh*t. If you wanted to, you'd put the hours, days, weeks of gruelling training into the gym and you'd be a better fighter than Arlovski! No doubt!
    I've seen you punch and I've seen Arlovski punch and there's no comparison. You throw like a well schooled amateur boxer with good hip rotation, good speed and you know how to turn the punch whereas Arlovski looks like a clown in a bar who's been training for like a month.
    No question, you'd rock his ass if you decided to dedicate your life to training!
    Too bad FightBeat fags on here gotta talk sh*t on you like that! You got my vote though!

    How many amateur fighst did you have steve, and when did you start training?

    I've known steve since 2000. He was still in his teens. He was already like 6'3 and had very good skills. He was a bit skinny then but he's much bigger now and I think he grew a few more inches.
    Steve's got 'heavy hands'. Kinda like Corrie Sanders where he just has natural weight behind his punches. He's really fast. I saw him working the heavy bag, dude was leaving dents!
