Haye v Arreola

This one could be a lot like Arreola-Walker. Haye knocks down Arreola Chris gets up to knock him out in the next round. Both fighters are tough. Arreola is tougher and hits harder. Haye is quicker but both throw a lot of punches. In the end I see the bigger man pulling it out.

 

David Haye is a monster and should be recognized asthe #1 Heavyweight. This is a no brainer. He cleaned out the cruiser division except for a few nobodies like Adamek, Cunningham, Tokarev, Huck, Braithwaite, Flores, etc. He KO'd iron chinned Maccarnelli, he almost lasted 5 rounds with ex-supermiddleweight Carl Thompson. At heavyweight the picture gets even brighter: He destroyed the legendary Tomaz Bonin (only ko'd by atg Audley Harrison prior to Haye)..KO'd in 5 rounds the great Monte Barrett only one year after Monte had been KO'd in 1 round by the legendary Cliff Couser (26 wins, 20 losses). What else does Haye need to do to get credit as an ATG. Seems nobody wants to give him his just due for all these superlative achievements. And now both Bitchko's are ducking and running from him. And now we hear Cristobal "Big Ugly"Arreola....the great brown hope....the only American hopeful...has been knocked down in sparring, probably sucker punched....by David "The Mouth That Roared" Haye...it's official, Haye is among the best that ever laced up!!!!!! Fortunately for Big Ugly he did not try to get up and destroy Haye in the sparring match the way he did 240 lb powerhouse Travis Walker in a real fight after being knocked down. Even though Arreola got off the canvas after being bombed down by the huge Walker and commenced to beationg the holy **** out of Walker, this does not mean he could ever do the same to the much smaller Haye, that would be a ridiculously stupid way of looking at it.

 

Arreola can take punches. And he can punch his way back into a fight. He is big and if he works on conditioning he will KO David Haye.

Haye is all hype. Nothing proof at heavyweight.

 

All these sparring reports! Guys get to be heroes without ever doing it in the ring. Spadfora dominated PBF! McCall dominated Tyson! Travis Walker knocked out Vitali Klitschko! Until I see it in an official match, I don't put much credit into it. Sparring is much different than an official fight. Sometimes a guy is only allowed to use his jab for the entire round. Sometimes a guy has to fight in a different stance to help out the other guy. There is just so much stuff we don't know about this. Any man 200 pounds or over is a threat, and I have no doubt that a cheap shot by Haye in sparring could make Arreola stumble and fall.

But in the real fight I am picking Arreola tko5!

 

:good Great points about sparing. You are 100% correct

 

:roflSeriously it is a great match to be made. If it comes off I see fireworks. I might be wrong picking Chris or I may be right. Chris is tough hits hard and throws a lot of punches. Many different kinds of punches. Haye I think has the speed. Key for Haye to win is use his speed. Key for Arreola try to rough up the Natrually smaller guy. I just think that Arreola may be able to pull this one out.

 

Haye is the real "Real Deal". Just to put his great win over Monte Barrett in true historical perspective: Cliff Couser (26 wins 20 losses) has had only one win in his last eleven fights, this was when he KO'd Monte Barrett in the first round one year prior to Haye's brilliant 5 round epic war with Barrett. Haye deserves everything that this great win illustrates...few fighters would have sacked up and got in the ring with Monte after that loss to Couser (26 wins 20 losses) knowing how badly Monte wanted to redeem himself, especially after seeing how Monte effortlessly swatted Ty "The Tomato" Fields with a single light right. Haye choosing to fight Monte at that time was the definition of "Big Balls". He could have easily chosen the path of lesser resistance: Kingpin Johnson, Chambers, or Arreola, because all these young bulls were calling him out at that time. Let's give the guy his proper props, he destroyed Barrett and saved the other young bulls from a career ending disaster at the same time....now that is true compassion in an otherwise vicious sport!!! All Hail King David.

 

:rofl:rofl:rofl:rofl

 

I take exception to the generalization that ALL American boxing fans are incapable of seeing Arreola's potential for what it really is-- limited.

 

Only a total idiot doesn't see the sarcasm of such things

 

I wish you were around to talk about boxing.

 

Haye would absolutely destroy Chris Arreloa. Hayes' combination of speed and power and Arreola's lack of conditions make for a bad mixture.

 

Haye in around 6.

But i wouldnt be surprised if Arreola takes Hayes shots and stops Haye in the fight.

I tend to lean for Haye due to his better boxing ability, but Arreola is a tough fighter who i think alot of people are overlooking.

 

Khan has been sparing with slick middleweights ahead of the Kotelnik fight and Fragomeni sparred George Grove (a supermiddle) ahead of a cruiserweight world title defense.

Haye wouldnt find too many cruiser sparring partners who hit like enzo, so makes sense to get in there with a HW.
