"One step at a time. Somebody is going to call me tomorrow from the UFC about my next fight, and it's going to be my next opponent. Of course, in the future, I want to be UFC Champion, but sooner or later, it doesn't matter. I can be in line, so I'm good. I still have a few more years in the UFC... It's totally up to the UFC. I can wait, I can fight forever."
-Andrei Arlovski talks about what's next for him following a thrilling win over Travis Browne at UFC 187 during the post-fight press conference (transcribed by MMAJunkie.com).
Penick's Analysis: I have to give Arlovski the credit I didn't give him into the Browne fight last weekend. He looked excellent on Saturday night, even though he got clipped, but even with that knock down he rebounded well and kept up on the attack himself. It's very possible he'll be getting another shot at the UFC Heavyweight Championship before his run is done, and that's an absolutely insane reality given where he was just a few short years ago.
