Proelite fighting's director of MMA operations TJ Thompson, once owner of the Icon Sport organization centered here in Hawaii confirmed with KHON2 today that a contract has been signed and former UFC heavyweight champ Andrei Arlovski will be among the headliners of the August 27 fight card.
Meanwhile, sources have told KHON2 that Maui native and UFC veteran middleweight, Kendall Grove is in negotiations with Proelite to also appear on the card Thompson neither confirmed nor denied that claim.
