    Logical step for both men after bad performances in July. This fight isn't rumoured, but it would make sense.

    David Price has a glass jaw and can't deal with power punchers, while Arreola has looked poor in his last three fights and is shot according to some members on this board.

    How do you see this fight going?

    I think Arreola has enough left in his tank to KTFO 1 Price.

    Arreola definitely has the power to KO Price but he has looked terrible in his last 2 fights and I think Teper is better than the current version of Arreola.

    Hard to pick a winner. Arreola at his best was better while Price was never that good to begin with, but Arreola is clearly in rapid decline and when a fighter is at this stage their ability can drop off enough to lose to far worse opposition.

    I'd favour Arreola slightly. He still has a decent chin and will in spurts be able to pressure Price who has no jab to create the space needed to keep Arreola off him. Arreola will be made to look clumsy, missing a lot, but at some point he will land a shot that will hurt Price and then it's over as long as Arreola can keep pressuring Price.

    I believe that Arreola can take Price's incoming long enough to land his shots. Price can't take those

    Arreola no doubt in my mind. Arreola although killed by vitali showed a great chin and great heart. Price is Price. If Chris lands it is just clearly over.

    All wrong for Price. Even this faded version of Arreola rolls right over him.

    I'm not sure Arreola is over as a contender, a couple of poor outings albeit . Plumbing might be a safer bet for Pricey.

    I always wanted to see Haye/Arreola.

    This would still be a good fight instead, though. :good

    Everyone knows the deal now with Price. Just pressure him, severely pressure him and he falls apart.

    Even the crude bum rush tactic that Teper deployed, is enough to give him fits.
    Arreola would be capable of implementing the same tactic as a fat Turk.

    Arreola would knock him out inside 3 rounds IMO.

    How would Price do against pressure fighter? lol
    Arreola is past his prime and badly off-shape, but I believe he is able to stay active for 4 rounds at least. More than even required.

    Yes. See Arreola-Molina, Arreola-Abell of Arreola -Mitchell.

    He always KTFOs opponents who have bad punch recistance, in 1 round.
