What is next for Art "King Arthur" Arciniega?

Art has been in the fight game for years now and has grown as a fighter. Art comes from a stellar background and the days of being with Last Stand Fight Team and close teammates with Phil "The Pain" Collins. Art was coming up with a 5-1 record when he first fought for PFC Championship at the Tachi Palace. Defeating a very tough Shawn Bias at that time and becoming the new Champion and moving to 6-1. King Arthur was the new king in his weight class and on a regional level the guy to beat!

Next he defended that belt against Jorge "The Bull" Evangelista which was a tough fight for five rounds and loosing a tough decision he was dethroned of the belt and moved on to a next fight.

Art went in to a organization at that time called War Gods and was caught for the first time in his career with a 9 second knock out. King Arthur for the first time in his career had now lost two fights in a row and was looking down.

Art came back to fight in Pure Combat and bounce back with a win over Jared Papazian via Guillotine Choke in the 3rd round and was back in the win column.
With that win Art was able to fight six months later against Chad Mendes who is now a UFC Fighter. Chad was able to come away with a decision over Art and put Art back on a loss and moving him to 7-4.

Art at this point was in a thought process and wondering what is next with his career. Always in Phil "The Pain" Collins corner Art was around training , cornering . Something was missing. He needed time away from the sport as he took almost a year off.

Art "King Arthur" Arciniega was back and better than ever to now have won 6 fights in a row.
13-4 he is now and by him taking a little time off has groomed him into a better fighter and much more smart in the cage. He has found a home with TPF and  most likley a Title shot. Art is a true Mix Martial Artist and ready for the future. Ups and downs have paid off .

What is next? We shall wait and see.
