  I am having difficulties getting rid of the fats that are around my arms, and they look quite flabby. Is there anyway to gain muscles and reduce the amount of fats around my arm areas? Especially underneath the arm area.
  
  I want to get arms like Ronaldinho, where they are very toned and muscular, or arms like nba players...anyone knows their workout regimes?

  Constant toning den? Work concurrently on shoulders and triceps and biceps. I tink got experts can teach you those.

  Dumbbell rows and curl grip pulldowns/pullups. For biceps
  
  Dips and close grip bench and pushdown or tricep extension for triceps
  
  Well those muscles that you like and geared more towards endurance
  
  so maybe you can aim for 12-15 or above for each set using lighter/light weights.
  
  You can try stair climbing or burpees/ free squats done in an explosive manner for cardio to burn fats.

  Just to reiterate, those exercises are the the few best for arms.I dont care whether you want your arms to look like Brad Pitt or Jay cutler.Just that the reps and weights vary for a different goal.

  i see this term popping out every now and then. will the defintion of light weights be subjective to each individual? 5kg?

  Hmmm thanks! So far the arm exercises which I have done are bicep curls using 12kg free weights, shoulder presses using 14kg free weights and the cable thing which you pull down to tone your triceps, not sure what it is called.
  
  Anyway does genes play a part too? I think that it is within my family that we have flabby arms, while ive seen some friends who never work out in the gym before or hardly does any exercises having nice tone arms...

  I think light is something you can do for at least 10 reps in good form.

  You are patronizing too much isolation exercises, try those exercises i mentioned and you will see a difference.Thats called "Tricep Cable Pushdown".
  
  Or you can use www.exrx.net as a guide
