it was a light punch that caught him when he was off balance, he bounced right back up showing no sings of being hurt, what the hell do you know? all you do is worship an overrated hype-job. anything you say holds no credibilty seeing as your only a fan of one person and not the sport.
I've thought for a while that if Tua could shed some weight he'd give Arreola his beans - haven't seen anything to change my mind yet. This isn't to say that Tua is unbeatable - far from it - I just dont see the skills in Arreola to do it. Does anyone here seriously think he could imitate Lewis or Byrd to take a UD? Would he be fast enough to avoid the left hook for 12 rounds if he came in at 263 again? Could he pull off what Ibeabuchi did and stand in Tuas face for 12 rounds trading bombs with success? Could he do what no-one has and KO Tua? Seriously how could pull this off? I just dont see any way he can - not based on what we've seen of Arreola.
sure was an ugly performance by arreola. minto got robbed in his hometown. o wait, it didn't go to the scorecards did it? sure, the marshmallow nightmare or blob whatever u want to call him is a letdown, but he keeps on winning. i still say he needs to get rid of his trainer, who's also his homeboy. if he knows whats best for him he needs to put his jumbo ass on a diet. chris knows this he's gonna throw a golden opportunity away, a chance of a lifetime all because he had no discipline. peter was a beast, but he's not the same he was acouple of years ago because of the same thing. it would be a fun fight to see these 2 wildebeests go at it.
Arreola lost to Klitschko but I'd like to see him fight the rest of the non-Klitschko HW's. I like boxing.
Sam Peter is a lazy *******, who doesn't care enough about winning to throw punches for three rounds. And he would MURDER Arreola. What the hell is HBO thinking trying to shine this turd to such a high gloss? Who's buying it? Minto was a tiny, light punching barely-heavyweight who wouldn't even make espn2 if he wasn't American and willing to go toe to toe with anyone in the world. He could fight the bouncer from your corner nightclub and it would be a war from bell to bell, with no certain winner. And Arreola looked like **** against him.
You just can't polish a turd, and that is exactly what Arreola along with 95% of this shitty division is, the guys in the 90s who were not elite, guys like Golota, Mercer, Morrison Briggs, Tua etc were just so much better than this **** we are watching, We still have No real Champ because none the belt-holders will fight each other without some gay ass demands. Arreola being a top 5 HW makes it crystal clear that Today's HW division lacks talent as well as credible fighters and is without a doubt the worst division in the history of boxing.
I'm so sick of him, during his fights you get to see a lack of talent, skill, and discipline, and after his fights you get to hear his lack of class and intelligence, HBO should just focus on Hyping Haye, there is plenty of money in a Haye vs. Adamek fight.
No idea why most are bitching. Arreola is going to be in some, possibly many very exciting fights. This is what everyone wants for heavyweights, right?
We want to see credible fighters who have skill and talent in good fights, not some disgrace who can't fight because he gets "hungry while trianing"
Peter has fought 3 upper tier Heavyweights and lost every single time including quitting against Vitali. He has had his chance(s) and failed. He is now relegated to fighting D class fighters. He is finished.
