Chris Arreola starts his third run at world title in December

The only talent he has is power and the ability to eat an inordinate amount of food in one sitting.

He has always been a gatekeeper level fighter, but because he's entertaining and has a decent number of fans,he's been built up to be something he never was. He's never been a genuine top contender, just hype and the illusion of potential "if he just lost weight."

He's never been in shape, he's easy to hit, he's predictable, no head movement, immobile and can only fight one way. Every time he's stepped up he's been beaten, his best wins are still Chazz Witherspoon, a retired McCline and Mitchell, hardly the kind of resume you'd expect from a top contender but the resume of a gate keeper.

Nobody rated Stiverne prior to the Arreola fights because of how terrible he looked vs Austin, but he looked great against Arreola because Arreola made him look good. Stiverne has proven nothing other than the fact he can beat a gate keeper like Arreola.

 

:smoke

Nipples Arreola needs another glass jawed Seth Mitchell to shatter...

:think

Which top ten guy has the best glass jaw to shatter?

 

Loser retires - especially if it's Haye
If CA can get past the early rounds I'd favor Chris to win by UD or a stoppage.

I think some are being a bit harsh on Chris. In BS1 he got off to a bad start and showed lots of character going the distance with a broken nose.
In BS2 he was winning until he got sloppy and stopped. Most likely BS has his number but I hardly would rate BS much higher than Chris.

His next fight vs a live opponent will show if he's a gatekeeper or still a factor. Chris is an entertaining fighter :good

 

Yes. Wilder is a perfect candidate for Cris

"Down goes Wilder, down goes Wilder..."

 

Arreola would shatter Wilders glass jaw, and effectively end his career like he did to Mitchell.

 

I can see him fighting Gerald washington,or Vyaceslav Glazkov.

 

He would annihilate Washington, who just struggled with Nagy Aguilera....

 

A sub 240 Arreola still gives practically everyone at HW a good fight

 

Arreola is a bum. He should fight the winner of Adamek vs. Szpilka. But I heard .. bumfights were banned??

 

Your odd obsession with Szpillka continues...

 

I mentioned Arreola, Adamek and Szpilka. Arreola wants a rematch with Adamek but he fights against Szpilka on November 8. If Adamek loses, what I don't think, Arreola should fight Szpilka. Logical, right? Notsure what it has to do with obsession .. just a fact.

 

No doubt. But here ends his skill. He's not good enough for any decent Top 20 boxer.
