    Arreola is not hype, never seen anyone claim him to be the next big thing! Funny how people always seems to dislike a fighter that doesn`t talk ****, but when boxer with a big mouth and a childish attitude comes around people jumps on bandwagon right away, and hype him to the sky! Arreola might not be p4p material but atleast he have the balls to fight Vitali and Wlad, that alone deserves credit! I would definately rather see Arreola beat Vitali (but strongly doubt he can) instead of the David " the talking vagina" Haye!

    I think that if Arreola comes in over 250, like he has in his last 3 fights, he is toast. He is fairly easy to hit, and if he is slow & plodding, he is going to take a frightful beating trying to get inside. Klit is an experienced fighter with a good chin, and he WILL hit Arreola a lot. Can Arreola do what Sanders could not? I don't see it happening.

    Some good points but Arreola might bring more to the ring than Sanders. We will find out.

    True enough. We will see on September 26. Right now the betting houses are favoring Klitschko by a lot - you get a return of 1.10 for 1.00 bet. Chris gets a return of 6.00 for a 1.00 bet. I'm not sure how that translates to saying it - Chris is a 6:1 underdog?

    The only thing Arreola will ever be able to unify is the Pizza, Hot dog , and pie eating championship contests!

    Thanks for extending your humor but this isn't a bodybuilding competition. Nevertheless, my money goes on Vitali.
