Haye-Arreola would be an awesome fight. The winner will be the definite #4 in the division. The winner of this and the winner of Dimitrenko-Chambers would then be in line for either of the Klitschko Bros. On paper, you have to go with Haye to beat Arreola. But something tells me Chris would catch him and put Haye to sleep.
If could beat Arreola at heavyweight then I would give him respect as a top contender in the division. However, I don't think Haye has the stones to get in there with a big rough heavyweight like Arreola. In fact I am not sure that Haye could beat Peter who is the washed up version of Arreola at this point.
Barrett tried but it took Haye quite a bit of time to finally end it. And Arreola while slow does throw straighter punches than Barrett and if Haye fights that sloppy again, it not at all hard to imagine him getting hit and floored. Im not sure if it was a slip or not, but Haye certainly was getting hit back on a few occassions. A bigger puncher like Arreola could make a bigger impact. Then again, wouldn't be surprised to see Haye shock Arreola with his power/speed and take him out early. I just don't have a lot of faith in either at this pt. I wouldn't be shocked either way. I'd certainly give the winner credit though.
I think Haye was sloppy because he knew that Barrett wasn't a threat. Haye doesn't usually fight like that. I wouldn't be shocked if Arreola won either because he has a puncher's chance. Overall, Haye has much better skills.
I´d love to see Haye fight Chagaev next.Since both Klitschkos are occupied this would be a great chance for Haye to prove himself at Heavyweight.If Haye wins it would be great promotion for a fight vs. Wlad.That being said i would favor Chagaev in that one...
Worst fight for Haye to take. Something risky, for little money. There is very little for Haye to do now, he could take a gimmee fight and wait in line, or he could go back to Cruiserweight?? :huh A victim of Setanta and Pay TV or a lucky escape from Wlad.
Look at Hayes record FFS, what makes you think he ducks anyone? Also didnt he make Arreola cry in sparring or somehting??
Neither Haye or Arreola are ready for the Klitschko's, yet they want to fight them and take a step back in their careers. Haye should fight Kevin Johnson and Arreola should fight another top 10 heavyweight that's available, maybe the winner (or loser) of Dimitrenko-Chambers.
