Is Arreola too small to fight as a heavyweight?

Do you guys think Arreola is too small to fight as a heavyweight. I have seen him fight, and I don't think he can compete with the heavyweight elite.atsch

 

Arreola is much taller than Ruslan Chagaev.

Ruslan Chagaev beat Nicolay Valuev.

Does that answer your question?

 

You're an MMA fan...but you're on a boxing forum...:huh

:hi:

but to be fair and answer you're dumbass question
he's 6'4 and weighs roughly 240 (he blows up and loses weight constantly so its hard to give you a solid number)

no...he's not too small...

 

no. just too ****.

an absolutely horrible fighter who will go nowhere fast. unless of course he loses a good few pounds and learns how to box.

 

we will see on Sat. how he does. He's fighting in Ontario, CA. Is one of you going?

 

we'll c friday tonight

 

oops, Sat. night

 

he is a big heavy, 6'4 should still be consider big at heavy.
there is like 5 world class heavies over 6'5,
people are expecting ...lewis,klits, nicoli, ect sized fighters to dominate forever.
have we forgot about Tyson and Holifield.
size only takes u so far, skill is far more important.

 

if you are going to call someone dumb you have to make sure you can write correctly. Next time try writing "answer YOUR DUMB ASS question".

I am not genius, but I am not calling people dumb :---(

 

He's definately not too small.

Too fat, maybe.

 

I question his work ethic and conditioning. Im nowhere near sold on him

 

He's too fat.

 

Right. If he's over 200, he's a heavyweight. But Arreola is a pretty good sized heavy, even by today's standards, at 6 foot 4 and 240............(although he's rather flabby) He's a heavyweight, and certainly big enough...........alot bigger than some.....

 

Yes he should be fighting at middleweight :nut

 

I'll freely admit he does need to lose about 15 or 20 lbs. His boxing on the other hand is actually very good i saw him fighting as an amature some years back and when his power was somewhat equalized by wearing the head gear in an amature situation when he has to box he is very good at it with a very very solid jab and straights from hell, good head movement and pretty good footwork. as far as that goes his issue with fighting skill wise is that he is a typical mexican fighter like margo who is gonna come straight forward outta pride and nasty temperment and try and knock someone out first. ive followed his career for wuite awhille and i like his chances against any of the top heavies personally id like to see him matched up with someone like mccall or j.c.gomez to start moving his way up to fight the klitschkos. i think with a little more experience a fight between him and vitali could be like tua vs ikeabuchi
