"MMA star Andrei Arlovski, the former UFC heavyweight champion from Belarus, has been training for a boxing career under the tutelage of trainer Freddie Roach. Arlovski, who has an MMA bout July 19, likely will make his professional boxing debut Sept. 13 (HBO PPV) in the opening fight on the Casamayor-Marquez card in Las Vegas, according to Golden Boy."

Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski will apparently make his professional boxing debut on an HBO pay-per-view (PPV) telecast on September 15 against a yet to be named opponent. "The Pitbull" recently signed a contract with Affliction MMA and will fight Ben Rothwell at its "Banned" event on July 19.
