Is Chris Arreola the future of heavyweight boxing?

I hope not. I hope some good up and comers start shining. If Chris can be the top dog in the HW division that division is truly ****.

I know the HWs suck now but we have the Klitschko's in it.

 

The answer is "Nope".

 

Is he skilled? Yes he is

Is he in shape? NO

He is a skilled puncher, something he isnt credited for. But as long as he shows up in such poor shape, I cant believe he has a future at the elite level of the sport

Arreola? Nah!
Boytsov has the potential to be the future of the heavy weight division.

He is still untested,but will test unchartered territory in his upcomming fight with Bidenko.

 

Definitely . . . . NO!

Even if he wins a belt and title . . . he won't last too long as a champ . . . he is very hitable and can't dominate.

 

holy ****! a heavyweight with bounce in his feet.

 

You know its possible that Arreola just doesnt rip up like some other people do. In the fights I have seen him in he punches enough, is active enough. I cant say ive seen him very deep in fights off the top of my head. Im less interested in how he looks coming into the ring and more concerned with what he does in the ring.

So far I am impressed. He has a good work rate and plenty of power. Im curious to see who he fights next and Ill be watching.

 

I wouldn't bet on it.

 

It's also possible that he used to be 25 lbs lighter two years ago and fought at Light-heavyweight as an amateur........actually not just possible both of those are true.

He's another heavyweight with decent potential but is either unwilling to get in optimum shape or believes he's actually better while fat.

He's not going to achieve anything major.

 

Yup, he is the next Sam Peter, because his demise will be coming very soon at the hands of a Klitschko.

 

Arreola is so much more than just a brawler who "blocks punches with his face". Arreola's boxing skills, speed, defense, jab, are way underrated. People dis him because of his weight, even though he is a really good boxer.

 

:happy

 

Hes a modern day Tony Galento.

 

this kid has a hell of a future. I think within the next 2 years the HW division will really have a resurgence, there are a number of very good prospect right now that will be at the world level within a year or so.
