    Prime Holmes would jab Arreola to death.
    But he wouldn't dominate like Vitali did.

    Holmes could beat Arreola today.....He can box, Arreola can't. Arreola would never hit him and get jabbed to death.:bbb

    Arreola would have knocked Holmes out. Renaldo Snipes put Holmes down and almost out with a punch from left field. Arreola is much better than Snipes could ever have dreamed of.

    No, he couldn't - but he could last a couple of rounds.

    Prime Holmes of course wins.

    Holmes know might last a couple rounds cuz hes probably still crafty even though hes an old man but he gets kod in 3. The one that schooled butterbean would probably be competetive but stopped in 8. A prime Holmes beats him kind of easy but arreola would have his moments holmes 11rounds 3 arreola 1 even. and the Holmes that beat mercer wins a close decision over arreola
