Arreola - hype or truly a monster?

I equate Arreola to me swinging a sledgehammer and wearing a lead weight vest. If I hit you, you go night night. If I don't, well then that's a different story because now I have to move around and try to swing this thing again. His weight is both his friend and enemy.

 

Take a guy like Frazier. You think he was any better than for example Sultan Ibragimov?

 

Pros

1. Underrated boxing skills. (Far better technical in terms of skills and ability than Sam Peters).

2. A fairly solid chin.

3. Tough-minded and willful. Has the relentlessness to overcome adversity.

4. Strings combinations incredibly well for a 'big fat guy.'

5. Great power

Cons

1. Easy to hit. His defensive is weak and he needs to re-affirm head-movement.

2. Arguably lazy & unmotivated (Claims he can go the distance but has weight troubles. His training doesn't seem enough).

3. Slow-plodding.

That about covers it. Arreola needs to train big time and come in peak condition and he has to work in his defense otherwise he'll eat a lot of shots. Either way he seem tough and relentless. He can punch and take a good punch. Most importantly, he strings combinations far better than any recent HW with that kind of power to take on any of the Klit brothers. That's his biggest strength.

To answer the question he is in the middle. Far from a monster and far from complete hype. And no, he didn't eat my computer.

 

I'm not american

 

Nobody has been hyping him up,so y are u asking is he hyped??

 

Ibragimov is far from today's best, yet prime for prime he would beat Frazier, IMO.

 

I never said you were.

 

Can't really vote in that absurd poll, but Arreola is a run of the mill contender who will be exposed for what he is by Vitali Klitschko.

I can, amongst many other modern day heavies.
