Ben Rothwell vs "Mighty Mo" at Affliction: Day of Reckoning?
 Date submitted: 13 August 2008
Author: Steve Sievert
A surefire heavyweight slugfest is in the works for Affliction's second show in October.
Discussions are under way to pair Ben Rothwell against K-1 veteran Siala "Mighty Mo" Siliga at Affliction: Day of Reckoning on Oct. 11, a source with knowledge of the negotiations tells MMAjunkie.com.
Standing in the way of the bout is approval from K-1 for Siliga to fight outside of his current contract with the organization. Siliga (3-0 in MMA) won his quarterfinal match in the K-1: World Grand Prix 2008 - Hawaii this past Saturday in Hawaii, but he couldn't continue in the tournament due to a groin injury. He could still be invited to the GP final next month as a wild-card entry, which would take him out of the running to face Rothwell in October.
Siliga's most recent MMA bout produced a technical knockout of journeyman Ruben Villareal at the K-1: Dynamite USA event in Los Angeles in June of 2007. A match-up with Rothwell would be the kickboxer's toughest test in his brief MMA career.
Ben Rothwell suffered his first defeat in 14 fights after being knocked out by Andrei Arlovski at Affliction: Banned on July 19 in Anaheim, Calif. "Big Ben" was suspended for 60 days following the loss but is expected to be ready for the October event at the Thomas & Mack Center in Las Vegas.
Arlovski will headline Affliction's second event against Josh Barnett, with the winner slated to get the next crack at Fedor Emelianenko.
