Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski (http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Andrei-Arlovski-270) signed a multi-fight, 16-month contract with Strikeforce on Monday, according to sources close to the negotiations.
Arlovski is likely to face one-time EliteXC champion Antonio Silva (http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Antonio-Silva-12354) on May 15 in St. Louis, Mo., in his sophomore effort with the promotion, Sherdog.com has learned. Arlovski appeared on 10 days’ notice for Strikeforce last June as part of a co-promotional effort with Affliction Entertainment. Brett Rogers (http://www.sherdog.com/fighter/Brett-Rogers-16048) shocked the 31-year-old Belarusian out of the gate with a 22-second knockout victory.
Arlovski will hold a live chat discussing his signing on Friday at 8:00 p.m. CST at www.arlovski.com (http://www.arlovski.com/)http://www.sherdog.com/news/news/Arlovski-Signs-with-Strikeforce-22957
Gerucht was al een tijdje bekend maar nu dus bijna rond. Mooi aanwinst voor de Strikeforce Heavyweight divisie. Zorgt weer voor wat meer interessante matchups.
