    thnx for voicing your opinions.

    I think he needs to get in shape. He could beat Tua if he stays away from his left hook and pick his spots at attacking Tua. He can win a championship and I think he will in the future.

    Tua is shot and has been for a while. Even if he beats Tua, that doesn't prove he's the end all and be all. But he's standing out among all the pretenders so far.

    I like Arreola, he has legit power, is active in the ring, hungry, very good chin, but he is still developing as a fighter, probably one year away from contention. Right now he needs experience, he should be fighting vets like Minto, Barret or Beck.

    It's unknown if Tua still can compete, but if he can, this fight might have came a little too early for Arreola.

    I think he is a mean SOB that looks to hurt his opponent when he steps in the ring and not just box the guy.

    He needs work though, and as far as I know his chin has yet to be tested.

    Maybe he can make some noise, if anything he is fun to watch.

    Tua will be a big test. You can be sure he'll stay in there for the full 12 so he needs to stay away from that big left hook?

    How does Arreola's chin hold up? Or is it relatively untested so far?

    Good fighter, has a lot of good and a lot of bad imo, but def comes to fight and win, has a warrior spirit so far, but I think hes going to fall short of beating the elites of the division...

    I think Peter outpunches him
    I think Wlad outboxes him
    If vitali is vitali i see him bashing his head in
    I think Valuev mauls him to a close decision



    not sure about

    haye
    Chagaev
    Sultan
    Povetkin
    ruiz
    Tua
    brock


    i think he handles

    mccline
    Monte
    JT
    Rahman
    maskaev
    guinn
    thompson

    He's decent enough to win a title in today's HW division.

    I'd say seeing as how the heavyweight division as a whole sucks, his future looks bright. Outside of Wlad, he has a good chance of defeating any of the other "top" guys. I'd say he just really needs to get himself into shape.

    He's horrible. If Tua has absolutely anything left, he will knock him out. Arreola is an extremely sloppy brawler with no defense and little natural ability. IMO he will also show that he has a very shaky chin in the near future as he steps up.

    People are nuts if they think he has any chance against even a lower B level titlist like Chagaev. Chagaev would destroy him effortlessly. Someone like McCline would too.
