    He's a tough guy. He's there to entertain. But a lot of you will hate.
    Again and again...
    For some of you, 90% of boxers are ****. No respect at all. I'll watch Arreola anytime over the so skilled Spinks...

    I think Walker got too confident after dropping Arreola.

    His KD in the first round caused him to get too cocky, and too willing to exchange.

    Had he stayed outside, and boxed behind his impressive jab, he may well have won.

    nobody is hating on the guy is the fact that as a professional fighter he needs to be more discipline on his conditioning. Theres no reason from him to come in the ring looking like that. I'm a fan of him because he is raw and got power but his conditioning sucks. Walker easily landed jabs and was faster at then Arreola and gave Chris problems. What happens when he fights the Klitschko brothers ! If Arreola came in the ring well condition and in good shape he would even be a bigger threat but until then I don't seem lasting against the Klitschko brothers.

    Maybe. But there something with Arreola...they all say they could have won if...But they just don't. Whiterspoon has an impressive jab too.

    when Arreola said he was standing around in the first round trying to "taste" the power of his opponent so he can figure out what to do I nearly threw my beer at the television! i love the kid, he's entertaining in ways wlad will never be, but what the hell is Arreola going to do when he "tastes" either klitschko or haye?!? cause those guys aren't going to stand on the inside and trade waiting to get popped.

    Is Arreola most skilled HW? No. Could the Klitschko send him packing? Absolutely. But for now, he gets the job done, I like his attitude, and when you watch his fight at least you get your moneys worth. I'd love to see him fight Haye.

    Two very interesting things during that fight. First: Arreola put a knee down, but with his guard up and protecting himself.(that was good) Second: Walker almost got Arreola and then not only drop his mouthpiece, but he told the referee. So the referee stop the action and Arreola gat a second air.

    By the way, the new american heavyweight prospect, is a Mexican!!

    :good same here. both walker and arreola are the best heavyweights on the scene right now representing America and the haters are coming up with excuses left and right. arreola's an exceptional boxer and puncher. he might be fat, but he's not stupid as he was studying walker and respecting walker's power. any lesser fighter would of gotten ktfo by walker so give chris some credit for improvising and winning the fight. arreola has been dropped before, but like a tito returns the favor and wins. the klits are the kings of the hill now, but don't forget they're not unbeatable. not saying chris can beat them now, but he won't be easy to beat.
