    The WBC selected well-known to Polish fans Chrisa Arreola (35-2, 30 KO) and Bermane Stiverne'a (22-1-1, 20 KO) to fight in an eliminator for the official top contender spot . The World Boxing Council hasn't yet settled the bid deadline, waiting for report from Arreola's camp on his medical condition, who pulled out of fighting Mike Mollo because of a hand injury.

    The winner would become a mandatory for Vitali Klitschko. Arreola already met the Ukrainian in the ring before, retiring after the 10th round.


    any thoughts on this match-up? I personally would like to see this slugfest :deal

    I like the fight, but what happened to Arreola vs Wlad in November? I'd rather see Arreola-Wlad than a rematch with Vitali.

    This might be a gem.
    It may be the first time and probably the last too that we see Arreola outbox a top ranked boxer! :D

    Who knows if Vitali will defend against the next mandatory, maybe'll retire before that.

    I can already imagine the outrage "Vitali is ducking Stiverne/Arreola!!! He's a disgrace!!"

    I have a sneaky feeling the WBC is putting this fight in place because they expect Chris to win and they expect Vitali to retire, so they can beef it up to be for the vacant belt.
    :think

    Vitali should retire after the Charr fight and let them fight for the vacant title. The winner will be lauded as a great American champion and throwback to the pre-Klitschko days of heavyweight boxing. Eventually a huge unification will happen and Wlad will make it look like a sparring session, before American boxing fans once again claim boxing is dead

    Vitali will probably win the mayoral elections Kiev and retire. Looks like the WBC will hand the belt to that fat talentless crybaby Arreola.

    Well all remember how Vitali beat you up and made you cry, Chris.

    Should be Boystov and Arreola really. It seems Don King is doing his thing again with Stiverne.

    But didn't Stiverne already win a WBC eliminator?

    Unless I'm losing it, that sounds like what the WBC did to Pavlik when he was trying to get the Taylor fight. Pav beat Zertuche in an official eliminator, then they was like "oh well if you really want to fight Taylor then you also have to beat Miranda too".

    Not that Vit would t straight murder Bermain, just sayin I guess.
