    Arreola still has power, but that's about it. If nothing else the fight might give Wilder a chance to prove his chin if he takes a couple of good shots.

    Not sure about boxing, but I always blaze tree before playing basketball. Could be the placebo effect, but I play better when I do.

    This is a **** fight and I'm a wilder fan.

    I won't complain much however mostly because Povetkin should be next. The fight we've been dying to see.

    If course it is bad. Wilder should be fighting Alexander Povetkin or be stripped.

    Arreola doesn't have anything left, which is too bad, because I would pick him to pound right through Wilder at his best, but that was a number of years back.
    Suspect this will end up more like the Liakhovich 'bout', especially since Chris chin seems to have deserted him, too.

    There are numerous challengers he could have gotten who are way better than Arreola...or at least offered the fight to.

    Povetkin has been cleared by WADA, he was telling the truth!!! Ryabinsky will sue Wilder for 34.5 million dollars for defamation of character............Wilder will do anything to keep from fighting Povetkin, well, it looks like Wilder will have to fight Povetkin in Moscow again of lose his title..............Wilder will be fighting his 4th voluntary defense against bums..................... Arreola is way past his prime, is way over-the-hill and did not have time to train anyway...............Wilde is a disgrace to boxing.............

    Horrible fight, unfortunate circumstances. I don't think anyone is at "fault", just unfortunate.

    The wrong question is being asked. Taking peds is bad for boxing but you want to give Pedvetkin a pass, that also makes you Pedvetkin apologists bad for boxing. Boxing however will carry on, with or without you.
