    He is 6'4" and 240 pounds he is plenty big enough.
     
  2. As soon as he steps up in class to fight a Klitchko, or a Valuev he's gonna get KO'D i don't see why so many people are hyping him up:-( he's slow looks soft, and lacks good conditioning..
    People are so ****ing desperate for an American to succeed at Heavyweight, they will try to sell this ****ing guy as the next Ali, **** makes me wanna puke..:verysad

    I havent heard anyone touting this guy as the next ali, there was only one ali, one tyson, one marciano, one louis and there wont ever be another of any of them. nothing that arreola has shown in his career so far even hints that he will be knocked out when stepping up in competition while he has shown an extremely solid chin and great power. im not some desperate american looking for the "great white hope" i like watching the klitschkos fight i enjoy watching haye and williams fight. i am not speaking as a fan of arreola even though i am. I am speaking as a fan of heavy weight world championship boxing. but anyhow i hope you all have had a wonderfull thanksgiving and enjoy this wonderfull weekend coming up :deal :bbb :thumbsup :good :!:

    Give him a break he's an MMA fan obviously, and he should stick to it.

    the reason he won't suceed in boxing is because he's Mexican American, so he drinks too much beer and tacos. He should make the transition to MMA.

    Not really if Haye is being seen as a threat.

    I'd say that he is just right, i have to admit i've seen him fight only once and i thought he looked ok. But i feel he hasn't quite got it.


    His good points are he possesses considerable strength and hitting power, and he also seems iron chined. Another positive is his amatuer background, he has learnt the fundermentals which of course are invaluable; and also, being american cant hurt cant it either..

    Now his bad point's. He lacks speed and athlectism - which i feel could pertain to lazyness and it's concomitant obesity.

    He isn't top small, but he needs to work hard and the fat yank dont seem to be doing that.
