    Peter is a better fighter than Arreola. Arreola got dropped against Walker and looked to be in serious trouble, you know what Wladimir would do to him?, it won't even look fair.

    Can't take a fighter that can't stay in decent shape for all fights seriously, especially not in an already plagued division.

    i would say chambers beats arreola at this stage.....chambers would teach arreola a boxing lesson......class dismissed type fight.....

    Yea. In the Walker fight he got hit hard and he took a knee like a smart fighter would do. But wat did he do right after? Oh yea he knocked him down twice and then finally knocked him out in the third.

    Yeah but you have to consider this, imagine Wladimir nailing him with the same shot?, you think he will be able to recover from it?

    Wladimir is by far the biggest puncher in the division and he's also extremely hard to catch. Hate to ruin your hopes but he would KO Arreola inside of 3 rounds at most if not earlier. Arreola has no defense and his aggression is poor as well.

    Chambers is not even going to get past Dimitrenko. Chambers would get knocked out by Arreola

    Agreed. I am not impressed by Arreola. He hasn't fought a legit top 15 hw.
    He has a lot of hype just like Haye w/o beating one credible hw.

    Yet the TS criticizes Wlad's competition when he's fought and beaten SEVEN Ring Ranked top 10 HWs in his last nine fight, including three reigning beltholders.

    The 2005 Peter was a lot more formidable imo because he had some speed and a better chin to go along with power and aggression. Arreola is heavyhanded, aggressive and throws decent combos but is very slow and has ZERO defense. His conditioning is awful. It's only going to get worse as he fights less and less as he moves up in the rankings. And you better be in good shape when fighting the Klitschkos...

    Wlad would obliterate him and Vitali might kill him. Im not at all interested in the Klitschkos taking on this guy now. If he proves himself by beating a legit hw, then ok.

    I think Chambers and Thompson are better American hws. If he could beat either, I'd reconsider.

    I consider him a top 11-15 hw like Haye at the moment.

    He will come in top shape for Wladimir, that I guarantee you and still get KO'd early. Chagaev is a far better fighter than Arreola will ever be and you saw what happened, Peter is also better and we saw what happened(please note that this was the best condition I've seen Peter in ever), Brock is an excellent and extremely underrated fighter and we saw what happened...etc

    Arreola, to me, is a poor man's Peter if that makes sense. The guy's speed is EXTREMELY poor and his aggression is TOO poor to be affective unless he can take Wladimir's punch and makes it an ugly fight which I doubt he can. As soon as Wladimir throws that right hand watch for Arreola to hit the deck.

    Arreola is the best American heavyweight, but Arreola will get knocked out by Vitali or Vlad. In fact, Vitali is considering fighting either Arreola or Haye next. Arreola turned down a fight with Vlad.

    Wladimir is so hard to catch he got knocked out by Brewster, Sanders, and Puritty. He's got a weak chin.

    Weak chin? That is a myth. Did Lewis have a weak chin? Louis? Etc.?

    You guys are being way too hard on Arreola...yes, the argument that Klitschko fights bums and would get knocked out by Arreola is a bad one, but Arreola always has a chance during any heavyweight fight because of his heavy hands...anytime a fighter has one punch knock-out power, he stands a chance winning any fight on any given night...maybe not a good one, but a chance nonetheless.

    nope disagree, even for his amteur background arreola's boxing skills are ****....his game is to overpower people.....and chambers has a solid chin.....oh arreola would also lose to dimitrenko, and in worse fashion.....the only thing arreola does better then chambers in power.....what happens when chambers chin holds up?......arreola loses in a one-sided UD......arreola is ****....and one-deminsional

    Wlad is a completely different fighter now...he has taken his skills to a new level and is pretty much unbeatable at this point...don't let your hatred cloud your better boxing judgment...no one is beating this version of Wlad anytime soon.

    Haye wouldn't have lasted 4 rounds last Saturday...this version of Wlad makes every fighter look ordinary.

    Chambers is a very good and underrated fighter...the boxing world knows this...no one wants to fight fast Eddie right now...too much risk, not enough reward.
