    has it been tested?

    from the few highlights i have seen, he seems to have a non-wlad chin.

    what say you?

    Oddly enough, despite being a fatass, Arreola has typically shown pretty decent stamina.

    It looks kind of shaky to me.. but in all honesty I haven't seen all that much of him so I'm mostly just going by his last two figts where he was knocked down by Walker, and stunned by McCline's counter left hook.

    The KD wasnt much either...if you watch it again, it seems to me like his leg gave out on him and took a knee by default.

    He didnt nearly look hurt at all.

    As for the McCline hook...well...it was a good hook :conf...**** happens

    Yeah, but that's getting hurt twice in a row by his most challenging opponents to date. That's when your chin is truly tested, when you go up in the level of competition.

    For someone with so many posts, you don't seem to know much about boxing

    Ayatollah, I am glad that you have chosen a "good" Ayatollah for your avatar. I hope that one prevails.

    'descent' chin? Yeah, he's got a descent chin. It will be descending right to the canvas once he faces Klitschko :!::D

    Yeah, that was my assessment too. If he's hitting the deck and getting rocked by those kinda guys, he's likely to get destroyed at the top level.
