    He looks solid on the mits.
    Not that mit work is telling, but considering what he looked like in the press conference not bad.

    His hands have always been pretty good.

    Hes not an untalented fighter, he just doesn't seem to take the game seriously and it shows in his appearances/performances.

    Also, hes taken quite a bit of punishment over the years

    The greater problem is that he is shot form many ring wars, and if he ever got in proper shape, he would probably be a Crusier.

    It's easy enough to look good on mits, I'm sure he looked good on the mits prior to all his previous losses.

    Arreola is shot, he can't take a shot like he used to, his timing is off, he's clearly not even in his usual shape. I don't even think he had more than a punchers chance in his prime, now he's way out of his depth.

    I hope he's getting paid well for this fight because Wilder is likely to put a beat down on him and knowing Arreola he won't just quit.

    he does throw fast snapping punches. Make it a one booth fight and he has a chance to get to that glass.

    Wilder pulls out of a fight with povetkin because he has a minuscule amount of legal heart medication that would be scientifically impossible to benefit povetkin in any way and this ^ clown calls him a warrior

    Its not a coincidence Arreola and his trainer have the same physique. Team Junkfood.
