WW contest. Ranked #2 & #8 currently in the WBO. Both undefeated.. November 16th. Good little fight, both heavy handed.. Possible title shot for the winner?
This one has me a little skittish, its a genuine 50/50 IMO. Arriaza is quite good, he's quite heavy handed, he has a tight high guard and throws in combinations, uses decent angles, has a nice left hook. His chin seems okay, so if he can soak up a little punishment early, and land something big, he might be able to pull off the upset. He's not as elusive as Abreu, who gave The Mean Machine some problems, but he probably hits harder, which is a concern, since Abreu seemed to rock him a few times. This is a tough call, haven't made up my mind yet.
