I like this one. Botha got TKO'd by a totally past it Holy recently, see how Tyson does. Question; If a boxer punches himself in the face, and they use Compubox or another punchstat method. How will they registrate that? :think Sir, yes Sir!
Have I picked Chavez - Lyell yet? If not, then I'll have a Julio Cesar Chavez Jr This content is protected Billy Lyell
I agree. It probably should have been. Btw if you find some fight's that you think is somewhat meaningfull, and that is not on the list, just post it and maybe Kirk will add it:good
Chris Arreola vs. Joey Abell- Chris Arreola by KO Friday Night Fights is back and looking on paper this looks to be a great match....but when you dig deep and really examine these fighters this fight is a total mismatch. Let's start off with Arreola since everybody knows Arreola. Big guy, big power, comes forward, and has fought solid competition. His record of 29 wins, 2 losses and 25 wins by KO is no nonsense. Arreola is very good and has fought the likes of solid contenders such as Chazz Witherspoon, Travis Walker, Manuel Quezada, an old Jameel McCline, and then losses to Tomasz Adamek, and Vitali Klitschko. A very solid resume indeed. Then we got Joey Abell, going back to what I said earlier on paper a very good record of 27-4 with 26 wins coming by way of KO and you might think he is a very worthy contender and might be on the cusp of fighting the top fighters such as the Klitschko bros., Adamek, Haye, Povetkin, etc. but he isn't. His resume is full of cans, and I don't use tomato cans too often, but that's what his resume is. No notable names, no top 20 contenders, no nothing just tomato cans. So, I gotta think his power is very overrated and I gotta think he he is very chinny and will be hurt badly by Arreola considering half his losses have come by way of knockout. So, realistically, this fight should end in 1 or 2 rounds. If this goes more than say 3 rounds then it's a very disappointing fight for Arreola. The Saturday fights I'll have a writeup on Wednesday.
That's about the same conclusion I have on this bout. His opponent has a ridiculously padded record, and the only reasonable opponent on his list is a NC (due to no fault of his own, the ref screwed up). Arreola should wipe the floor with him.
