    I think Chris is really overrated IMO.

    The kid can punch but that is all. He has the finesse of a caveman.

    The same could easily be said of Povetkin......I really like the fight myself.....Povetkin to me is very plodding and mechanical. Whereas Arreola is explosive if not abit slow

    Yeah, he did. He needs to get in shape to make some noise in this division.

    Good fight but povetkin would win...better skills and better shape and has fought better opposition.

    Now that would be a great fight to watch.

    Arreola is strong and explosive, but I don't see him getting a KO over the Russian. Povetkin would probably outwork him and get a UD win.

    I have to go with Arreola wouldnt need much finesse against Povetkin our majority of the heavyweights

    Povetkin was getting hurt by Chambers. He would have to box and move against Arreola or he'd get worn down and stopped.

    Povetkin would simply outpointing Arreola. Arreola has a very good punch but lacks technical skills.
