Andrei Arlovski vs. Tanner Boser targeted for October 3rd UFC event

Tanner Boser may not be getting that Maurice Greene fight that he’s kept asking for, but the Canadian heavyweight is getting another step up in competition.

TSN’s Aaron Broensteter reported that Boser and former champion Andrei Arlovski are set to meet on October 3rd at a location TBD.

Boser (19-6-1) is 3-1 inside the Octagon, and he has particularly impressed in his last two outings. After suffering a decision loss to Ciryl Gane, Boser responded with a sensational knockout win over Philipe Lins in June, then came in on short notice last month at Yas Island in Abu Dhabi to stop Raphael Pessoa in round two.
