Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski will be announced as Affliction's latest acquisition during tomorrow's press conference in New York City, according to a report from MMARated.com.
Additionally, Donald Trump will be introduced as a new equity partner in the fight promotion, according to an executive in the Trump organization that was quoted in the report.
As MMAjunkie.com reported earlier today, Affliction and Trump have scheduled a press conference for tomorrow in New York City.
According to the website, Executive Vice President of The Trump organization and the Special Counsel to Donald J. Trump, Michael D. Cohen, has confirmed that Trump will introduce Arlovski as the fight promotion's latest acquisition.
Arlovski will fight Ben Rothwell at Affliction's debut event, which takes place July 19 at the Honda Center in Anaheim, Calif. Fedor Emelianenko meets Tim Sylvia in the night's main event.
Arlovski (12-5 MMA, 10-4 UFC), a Chicago-based fighter, reigned as the UFC's heavyweight title-holder from February 2005 to April 2006. Since losing a July 2006 title fight to then-champ Tim Sylvia, Arlovski's has pieced together three consecutive victories. Arlovski fulfilled the fight commitment of his previous UFC contract when he defeated Jake O'Brien at UFC 82 in March, and the UFC lost its exclusive rights to negotiate with the Belarusian fighter on May 1.
They are getting some big names.

Should be a great show. Though I read on Sherdog that it will be held in a ring, which lends itself to nice camera work, but too many stops in the fight.
