Once the worst man on the planet, Andrei Arlovski is now a BKFC hunter.
The former UFC Heavyweight Champion has the longest term of office in company history, which participated in the Octagon of his UFC debut in 2000 until his last performance during the International Fight Week of last year.
Two decades away from his UFC title profit, Andrei Arlovski completed his contract last summer at UFC 303 when he took on Martin Buday in his 42nd UFC fight. Arlovski lost a unanimous decision and as a result the heavyweight on a four-fighting skid became a free agent.
Arlovski fought against the row of a murderer in the heavyweight division and shared the Octagon with people like Francis Ngannou, Stipe Miocic, Fedor Emelianko and more.
Coming from a TKO victory in the dirty boxing championship of Mike Perry in March, 46-year-old Arlovski has found a new banner to fight in BKFC.

Andrei Arlovski signs with BKFC, set for debut in Texas
On Saturday, the Barekle -Vechtkampations announced that they had signed Arlovski in their selection.
Arlovski is already booked his debut against 70-Vecht MMA veteran Geronimo Dos Santos. The heavyweights will collide on BKFC 76 in Fort Worth, Texas – the debut event of the promotion in 'The Lone Star State' on 21 June.
Arlovski's opponent Dos Santos made the headlines last month when the 44-year-old brutal former UFC Heavyweight Competent Aleksei Oleinik in BKFC Dubai eliminated.
DOS Santos and Arlovski have more than 130 fights between them. Arlovski also has an earlier victory over the current BKFC Heavyweight Champion Ben Rothwell.
BKFC Texas will contain the son of Boxing Legend and Rematch of all time
There is a saying that 'everything is larger in Texas' and that can simply be the case with the addition of former UFC Heavyweight Champion Andrei Arlovski.
It appears that Arlovski is not the only selection framework that makes his promotion debut on BKFC 76.
Kenzie Morrison, the son of former boxing heavyweight champion and 'Rocky v' Ster Tommy Morrison, will enter the square circle for the first time on June 21 – Optonent TBA.
Morrison has an impressive record of 22-1-2 as a professional boxer who is looking for the name of his father.
The most important event of BKFC 76 is an epic lightweight title Rematch between Franco Tenaglia and Tony 'Loco' Soto.
Tenaglia and Soto were busy last year with one of the most debilitating fights in combat history at BKFC Spain, with Tenaglia getting his hand in a hard -fought decision.
Post-Fight, UFC Superstar and BKFC sub-owner Conor McGregor doubled their wallets because they had left it all on the line.
