Andrei Arlovski, John Dodson stage impromptu wrasslin' match at Jackson's gym

Former UFC heavyweight champion Andrei Arlovski is 6-foot-4 and 240 pounds. UFC flyweight John Dodson is 5-foot-3, 125 pounds. Both fighters train out of Jackson-Winklejohn in Albuquerque, New Mexico. The world famous gym houses the likes of UFC superstars Jon Jones, Carlos Condit and Donald Cerrone, and it carries a serious reputation as one of the more ‘active’ gyms in all of MMA.

Apparently with this weekend’s upcoming WrestleMania on Sunday, the fighters at Team Jackson-Winklejohn are getting into the wrasslin’ spirit. And unlike a normal day of sparring featuring head-kicks and power doubles, Dodson and Arlovski decided to put on a pro wrestling exhibition in front of their teammates to lighten the mood.

Now, if “The Pitbull” was to drop one of those splashes on Dodson in an actual fight, the flyweight division would be thinner than it already is. However, it’s always nice to see teammates bonding over the universal language of skintight neon shorts and top-rope elbow drops.

What say you, Cagereaders: How many Dodsons would it take to defeat one "Pitbull?" Three-on-one handicap match, perhaps?
