    Both fighters lost their last bout. Glazkov beat Adamek by wide UD, while Stiverne managed to knock Arreola out in the sixth round.

    Adamek won their first bout in 2010 by a majority decision. Arreola hurt his hand in that fight, but Adamek was outboxing Chris and deserved that win.

    I personally think this is a bad match-up for Arreola. He should target 'chinny' fighters like David Price, Deontay Wilder or Tyson Fury.

    The loser of this fight won't be longer considered as a legit contender.

    Proper crossroads fight.

    The loser has nowhere left to go really.

    Tough fight for Adamek at this point in his career, he looked well past it against Glazkov. Arreola has lost almost all his big fights and should be really done as a legit contender. Good cross roads fight.

    I'm backing Arreola, but I think Adamek is still too fast for him at this point.

    Arreola will have the best training camp ever for this fight, he will come in the best shape of his life and get back on track for a world title shot

    he should have won? :lol:
    accept the fact that unless arreolla fights a non ranked guy, he loses.
    he looks great knocking out guys that have no expierence, shot or just no hopers.
    Stiverne beat the living sh.it out of him 2 times. end thread on this "he should of won crap" :lol:

    :yep Arreolas best win is Seth Mitchell. I saw Mitchell land plenty on him before getting wrecked. I think the only reason Arreola beat Mitchell was because Seth cant take a proper punch :lol:

    Adamek would be Arreolas second best win. :rofl

    Unless Adamek goes back to throwing 3 & 4 punch combo's (that land), I think he'll be in trouble against Arreola next time.

    And I would think both fighters come into the ring in great shape. Just don't understand why Adamek doesn't throw any combo's lately? He's not that old!

    Still a good fight and makes sense for both guys. I think I'd take Arreola to win a rematch. Adamek is on the decline and Arreola isn't.

    It will be interesting to see what network carries this fight if it does happen. I could see it landing on Showtime, HBO, NBC, or even the main ESPN channel.

    And where would the fight be held? Adamek hasn't fought in the The Prudential Center in a while & Arreole like's to fight in California.

    :think

    I don't know who wins this fight but I would favour Adamek. Chris has been talking about getting into shape for like 10+ years now and I guess it's safe to say he won't get into shape any time soon.

    But there's alot of things to consider here leading up to the fight. Adameks age and decline which all favours Chris. We all have to remember that Adamek isn't some slickster who hasn't been hit in his career. He's been in some really tough fights and I don't expect him to look well here.

    However Chris is never in the shape needed and he doesn't put the work in even though he says he will do it time and time again. He's also been in some tough fights but I mean if he didn't get into shape for the heavyweight championship of the world then I don't expect him to get into shape for this one either to be honest.
