^ I really, REALLY want one of them :shock: I got confused for a minute & thought I had quoted myself without realising
Arreola will more likely be in the 240-245 range coming into this bout. I have a bad feeling about this fight. Adamek's got such fast handspeed, and Arreola's lack of strategy is gonna really hinder his performance...
Good call!:good The release of that "sandwich" coinciding with a "quiet" Arreola isn't just coincidence.
Even if Arreola comes in tip top condition, who has he beaten to make anyone believe he can defeat Adamek? His only real chance to win this is by KO, against a fighter with a world class chin. The key is not whether Arreola comes in at 240lbs as everyone seems to believe (because even when he was lighter he was still rather crude, fighting with very little strategy outside of pressuring and blowing his opponents out), but whether Adamek's chin can weather a storm or two. As for Arreola going AWOL, there's a good reason. This content is protected
High 230's is still too much IMO. At that weight he's still too soft... if he wants to track down a mover he should be coming to fight as slim as possible. 230 at most and judging by his body type he could probably shrink all the way down to the high 220's, but I wouldn't count on that happening any time soon. So 230 or so is your best hope. We'll see if he can do it. :conf
