    Chris arreola is in rockys shoes in the first appollo creed fight no1 is giving him a chance is seen as an opponent to look good against most predict a early knockout.One must only imagine what's running through arreolas mind hes a balls to the wall slugger whos fighting an elite highly skilled champion...if arreola gives vitaly all he can handle busting him up and goes the distance...and loses a close or split decision will people give him his props? thoughts any1???? lmao if chris says Yo Henry we did it!!!!!!! if he goes the distance...:think

    I respect that...arreola is mos def similar to rocky in that way..he differs in that rocky was about 202 lbs and arreola is lean at 235 and in good shape at 250...

    Go arreola!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    It has to be said that VITLAY is no Apollo Creed though....more of a Spider Rico surely? There are obvious comparisons to be made with Ivan Drago, obviously. They're both tall, they both bleed a lot and they're both steroid cheats :deal

    Definently. He can get knocked cold but in the end will most likely get props for putting a good fight. Let's hope it's competitive.

    The guy has a shot.

    ...You're not referring to this are you? http://www.eastsideboxing.com/news.php?p=2123&more=1

    Because that's a very different kind of steroid use, mate.

    NO.

    At least Rocky trained hard when he got his chance of a lifetime.

    NO.......

    but arreola does have the weight of trying to become the first mexican-american heavyweight champ in history on his shoulders....

    So that means he'll score a flash KD in the first round (first time Apollo went down in his career as well), and give a tough fight for 12 rounds, but LOSE a split decision? And then there will be claims of them saying "There ain't gonna be no rematch"

    Well Arreola's defense is about as good as Rocky's. Let's see how that works out in real life though.
