    I dont think so, its not like hes getting hurt and trying to hold on or move, he gets hit and just stops everything, hes gone, he has no resiliance to a punch on the chin.

    Compare that to the amount of big right hands Tyson took against Lewis, infact imagine Tyson in there with Arlovski, even now a quick burst like that from Rogers and Arlovski would have been out.

    Arlovski is supposed to be good but a washed up boxer could have done that, it wouldnt work against everyone in mma but Arlovski cant take pressure or punches and is a bully in that the mma fighters hes up against do get intimidated by punches and let him work, whereas Arlovski isnt used to seeing a boxers skill and agression with their fists as the people he does fight just generally dont box.

    Tyson had an amazing chin. He was only hurt by dozens of solid punches. No comparison to Arlovski and I don't think anybody thinks Arlovski is even in the same league as Tyson's prime.

    I'm not saying he would have a GOOD chin. Just saying he might get up and be able to continue. When he goes out he wakes up while the ref is stopping it. No argument that he's out, has a weak chin, or isn't a top level boxer.

    Just saying he gets stunned, goes limp, the fighter keeps hitting him and it gets stopped. Boxing, he could get stunned, go limp and down, the ref walks the other fighter to a neutral corner and turns to count and Arlovski can take the count and get up. Also it's a lot easier to block punches with boxing gloves than with mma gloves so he'd probably get hit on the chin less.
