    The two guys who fight at the same weight class.

    Brook vs GGG might be a bigger mismatch than Wlad vs Mormeck.

    Arreola has a punchers chance; I don't think Brook has any chance. Maybe if he plays keep away from all 12 rounds and is still awarded the decision because it is in England.

    I agree. I just find it funny because almost everyone dismisses Wilder-Arreola, and I see an awful lot of people explaining why Golovkin-Brook is such a good match-up.

    We truly live in bizzaro world.

    I have to agree. Arreola will have a puncher's chance (15 %).

    I hesitated when I voted, but I feel Arreola's only chance is early.
    Whereas if Brooke is still standing by the late rounds he'll be more threat to GGG, than Arreola is to Wilder.

    Arreola-Wilder clearly, he'll have a puncher's chance early, especially if he gets in Wilder's face and swings for the fences. I've been running scenarios in my mind, and can't come up with one regarding Brook beating GGG.

    I'll check your video later tonight Rummy, I meant to watch it earlier but I had a lot of stuff to do today, not on here.

    Hmmm, it's not easy. Probably Brook-GGG as stylistically Arreola is just tailormade for Wilder.

    Arreola has the punches chance.

    Brook has everything against him including a layoff. Dude is done.

    Brook and GGG are much closer in size than Areolla and Wilder. Plus Areola hasn't been in fighting shape for the last 5 years.
