Arlovski's Manager: He's Not Ready To Hang It Up

Arlovski's manager fires back at the critics and those who say his client should hang up the gloves and head for retirement.

"I don’t think much of these critics. I’m very skeptical of what they say because the minute you’re on top, they’re your biggest advocate, and the minute you fall down they become your critics,” Khorlinsky told FCF. “To me these people don’t really mean much you know? You can talk about chins, you can talk about that, but I haven’t seen a single person to date who could take a punch right on the chin and not go down. Everybody goes down.”


“He’s not ready to hang it up,” Khorlinsky added. “Obviously these world famous trainers like Greg Jackson see something that these critics don’t see, as otherwise why would they be wasting their time with Andrei?”

While Khorlinsky still believes in the abilities of a man who holds wins over notable names like Vladimir Matyushenko, Tim Sylvia, Ben Rothwell and Roy Nelson, the manager reports that Arlovski is also committed to making a comeback.

“He’s dying to get back in there,” said Khorlinsky about his client, who has also lost to Antonio Silva, Fedor Emelianenko and Brett Rogers during his current losing streak. “He’s dying to get a win. He will never accept four defeats in a row and quit the sport like that. He loves it too much, he loves the competition and he loves performing for people.”

Khorlinsky did confirm that Arlovski has been training and training extensively, as he prepares to record his 16^th pro win.
