MMA Rated has the exclusive:MMARated.com has learned that WAMMA heavyweight champion Fedor Emelianenko will face Andrei Arlovski at the upcoming Affliction show tentatively scheduled for January 24th in Anaheim, Calif.
Affliction Entertainment VP Tom Atencio confirmed the news with us earlier today.
Atencio also said that the promotion will officially announce the date, location and main fights on the card sometime next week and that it will be an MMA-only card but still co-promoted with Golden Boy Promotions.
It's great to see that Fedor will be getting back in the ring in July. However, like most potential match-ups for Fedor, I don't think Arlovski will be able to hang with Fedor. Andrei is a good striker, but I believe Fedor's explosive style is even better, and on the ground, it's not even close.
