...expect one of the most brutal KOs of recent time. A crude, no-defense having, plodder like Arreola is tailormade for Wladimir. It will be a shocking one-sided beatdown + knockout. 5-6 rounds. That's why Steward is also pushing for the fight, he knows Wladimir will have one of his most spectacular knockouts in the States against Arreola.
Lamon had to walk in hell and almost got killed in there and was lucky that Wlad collapsed. But even then he could not drop out on his feet wlad.
Arreola is heavy handed & can take a punch but is fat & slow. If they fight in America with a decent ref then it might get interesting He is definately a better opponent than Mormeck or Thompson
Always amazing how there are idiots who still believe the Arreola hype, when the guy has not beaten anyone good in his career. The two top 10 HWs he faced, he lost to.
Arreola would be a sitting duck for Wlad. Too slow, too crude, too easy to hit. Only way it goes more than 6 rounds is if Wlad boxes too cautiously like he did against Haye, which is unlikely, he tends to throw more against opponents who come to him. Arreola was stunned by a nobody in Molina and got hit cleanly numerous times against Butler. He has no hope whatsoever against Wlad.
Agreed. Just wanted to post how Arreola got stunned by that Molina right hand 2 weeks ago. Yes he finished him afterwards but Wlad would really have field day with Arreola. Left hooks and right hands all night long. I doubt Arreola has a better beard than Peter or Brewster. Steward knows that Arreola is tailormade for Wlad and wants him to have one great showing in the US.
Arreola has a shot. If he puts down the cakes and candy bars and trains his ass off he has a puncher's chance against Wlad. He needs to get himself down to about 235-240 and be aggressive. Hell Brewster was 6'2 and got the job done. Corrie Sanders was 6'4. Against Vitali he had no chance, but with Wlad he has a slight chance. If he stands his fat ass in the center of the ring following Wlad he has no chance. He has to make the fight happen.
I can't wait to see Wlad fight a fat, unskilled plodder who has already had his **** pushed in by his brother. ****! Will be HUGE in Germany! Make the fight :deal
He is a better opponent than Mormeck or Thompson but at the same time he lacks defense. Hell, he actually doesn't have one. And that will be his downfall against Wladimir, early in the fight. Wladimir will find a home for his best punches easily. Target practise. I just think it will be a brutal beatdown, but thats just my opinion.
