Andrei Arlovski vs. Frank Mir targeted for UFC 191

A decade ago, when the UFC was struggling to keep pace with the heavyweight renaissance emanating out of Japan, a fight between Andrei Arlovski and Frank Mir was one of the best pairings the promotion could've put on.

And somehow, all these years later, it remains just as relevant.

A match-up between the two resurgent legends is being targeted for UFC 191, MMAFighting.com's Ariel Helwani reported Wednesday on UFC Tonight. The fight has yet to be finalized at the time of this writing.

Arlovski and Mir have both seemingly defied Father Time, revamping their games to mount simultaneous title runs at the age of 36.
