Andrei Arlovski: ‘If you’re talking about business, I want to be a champion again. If we’re talking about other stuff, number one for me is my family. No more crazy stuff.’
Former UFC champ Andrei Arlovski is in the middle of a run that very few people expected.
The former UFC heavyweight champion is on a six-fight winning streak, with his four most recent fights coming in his return to the UFC. Arlovski (25-10 MMA, 14-4 UFC), who is ranked No. 4 in the USA TODAY Sports/MMAjunkie MMA heavyweight rankings, will next face StipeMiocic (13-2 MMA, 7-2 UFC), ranked No. 3, Saturday at UFC 195.
Arlovski attributed his resurgence to growing as not only a fighter, but a person when speaking to MMAjunkie at the UFC 195 open workouts.
I became a smarter fighter, Arlovski said. At this point, I choose what is more important for me. if you’re talking about business, definitely I want to be a champion again. If we’re talking about other stuff, it’s definitely number one for me is my family. No more crazy stuff.
