    Percentages would not be cumulative like that. Ignoring the fact that the percentages were dealt out arbitrarily, it's not actually 20%.
    A 10% chance in the first is a 90% chance of failure.
    Dependent upon the 10% would then be the 5% in the second... and so on.
    I'd make out a proper function for that, but I'm not really all that bright.
    Anyone else up on their calculus?

    Yep, except for Wlad being a soft and glass chinned bum. Arreola will never be champ. He is fatter than my uncle Cuco.

    If CA got his fat ass in shape he'd have a chance of sparking Wlad, but he'd have to come out swinging & get on top of Wlad from the very beginning.

    Travis Walker almost handed Arreola his ass. His talent is good. His conditioning is shitty.

    *Going all out* means he'd be desperately trying to get inside and land and that means taking chances..................and that means Wlad would merely have a sooner opportunity to catch this overrated, out of shape, low level fighter much sooner, and drop him harder than Travis Walker dropped him.

    Wlad is about ten times higher level of a fighter than Arreola is. And Arreola does not even have a a very impressive punch tolerance, as the light punching Travis Walker proved.

    Wlad eats Arreola ALIVE.......and fast, too.

    How Arreola got his current ranking and exposure, given how umpimressive he is as a fighter and athlete that he is, is beyond me. Most rediculous and unwaranted run up the rankings in recent memory.

    WLAD a BUM?
    Really

    Do you really believe that? If so, you dont know ****. Until you have been in the ring trying to make a living in a sport you get punched in the face, you have NO RIGHT to call ANY fighter a bum!

    :yep Well done. I'd say Arreola's chances are more like 10-15% for the first 3 or 4 rounds, after that it's nighty night for Chris.

    Peter has better boxing skills than Arreola at this point. He also has a better punch, better defense & a better chin.

    Are you joking? Have you seen the top 10-15 ranked fighters in the HW division fight? They're awful.

    Arreola being ranked isn't a testament to his ability. It's a testament to his ability relative to all other contenders.

    He has the power to catch Wlad and KO him.

    It would have to be in the first TWO rounds.

    And Wlad's defence has improved of late.

    I would give him a 5 - 10 % chance.


    His chances of losing on points: 20%

    Chances of being KOd: better than 70 %.

    Arreola has got the type of style that would seem most suited to beat down Vlad, a good strong in your face inside pressure fighter/slugger....but Cris probably doesn't have the fitness level or the experience to compete with Vlad of today. Vlad is definitely the best heavy with the best experience level, and he is completely dedicated to his sport and to being the King. probably would be a very tough night for Arreola when he started eating Vlad's level of "oh ****" jabs. Everybody says they will walk in and bang out Vlad, but as soon as they taste how vicious those Vlad jackhammer jabs are, they back off and try to figure him out...then they just end up getting pounded into submission. I like Arreola, and he probably has a better chance than many due to his style and nature, but I won't be putting my money on him.
