I like Arreola... but he acts like a big, lazy, dumb-ass, teenage punk. WTF Cholo? Grow up and get serious... or don't waste everybody's time. Like RENYO said,,, when I saw Minto landing those flush shots, I wondered how Chris would fare against other top-ten heavies... Is he still calling out Tua? Might wanna re-think that one.
Chris is only being given time of day because the division is so woefully thin and lacking any glamour as used to be the case for the heavy division. Many clamoured around Samuel Peter some years back hailing him as the new coming. Anyone with even a small insight into boxing could see that with both these fighters that is reaching at its worst. Until Chris can be bothered to take this sport seriously i dont see why he should even be considered a contender considering his poor style.
The dudes crazy. Even at his full potential he may still fall short, but he won't leave any questions. Right now we all know he can be better. It's like having the winning lotto ticket and throwing it in the trash.
the guy just doesnt have the commitment when it comes to diet. Team Arreola needs to take over and hire a chef to help him eat the right things and that weight will come right down. He will look better, feel better and perform better:good
So true unfortunately. His words were all for naught. I was hoping he would show up for the Minto fight in the 240s again, look sharp. Instead he came in as fat as ever and Minto gave him more trouble than he should have. He has the potential to be an elite HW with the division being as shallow as it is. Instead he comes in nearly 2 stone heavier than he should, and is relying on his power to win him fights. At least he is an exciting HW, I'll give him that. ****, the HW division sucks. The disparity between the Klitschko brothers and everyone else is astounding
Considering his soft body type, I think he could easily make it to 230 which in my opinion would be right around his ideal fight weight. Now do I think he'll ever get back down to that weight? NOPE.
Noone would ever expect him to be cut and chiseled. Just merely be less obese. That'd be an improvement. There are about ten degrees of seperation between being cut and chiseled, and being where Arreola is in his conditioning.............At this point, the guy can't even lose the rolls.............much less, gain muscle definition. He's even fatter and more obese than your ordinary Joe Schmoe off the street. And yet he's a pro athlete.
