Stats:
JB.
Could you tell me what your predictions for
Friday are?
Andrei
Arlovski : I'm in the mood to win
that fight. Maybe Rizzo has different opinions
but I predict victory.
JB. What approach are you going to take to that
fight? What strategy?
Andrei
Arlovski : The fight will show, no
comments about strategy. (laughing) it is classified.
JB.
What type of specific training has been done
to counter Pedro as a fighter?
Andrei
Arlovski : Of course I have been
doing special training but I can say it's nothing
more than to defeat an opponent who is really
strong.
JB.
No disrespect intended but you're seen as the
underdog in this fight. How do you feel about
that?
Andrei
Arlovski : That's good because that's
people like me, the underdog, need to fight
in order to become the best. Champions were
all underdogs themselves some time ago.
JB.
What does the future hold for Andrei Arlovski?
Where do you see yourself in, say, five years
time?
Andrei
Arlovski :To become Champion but
not only in next fight but at least next ten
years and I will be fighting for the next ten
years.
JB.
Do you have any message for the fans out there?
Andrei
Arlovski : I would like to have as
many fans as possible and I will try not to
disappoint them.
JB.
Thanks a lot.
