    There's no way a heavyweight can starve themselves especially when they're overweight, I'm pretty Chris was over eating anyway, regular portion meals would help him lose weight...

    Neither does Chris Arreola.

    240 is fine. His workrate is excellent and he does't slow down in the late round so he's in shape. It just the way that guy is built.

    This guy is wasting away his career fighting bums. He should be fighting guys like Pov, Helenius, Chambers. Its not like theres a lack of quality opponents in the HW top ten.


    I mean, seriously, why the hell is Pov fighting Boswell? Why isn't he fighting Arreola?

    The worst thing about his physical attributes isn't his fat, which he is probably used to by now, but his lack of muscle. The fat won't help him do anything but take body punches better but it won't restrict him hugely either. It'll hurt his stamina, make him slower etc., and although he's an inferior fighter because he's fat, it's not the end of the world.

    The problem is that he has very little muscle. For a guy who weighs 240lbs, where is the big, strong neck? The traps? The arms or strong legs? He doesn't have any of that. A fat guy like Tony Galento at least looked strong as a bull whereas Arreola has a thin neck, thin legs and flabby everything else.

    He needs a conditioning coach. Someone to take off 20 or so pounds, but in the right way to keep in him strong, and add about 10lbs of mucle.

    Whats up with Arrerola fans, there is not a single good thing being ****ing fat, he wants to be a world champion and doesnt have the power to eat well and get fit, i respect 99% of the fighter but He is ****. I mean 40 years ago fighters were fit fighting 15 rounds and did not have half as good conditions, proteins and different stuff these fighters today have, but they worked their ass off and were fit, i would rather see someone like Ken Norton than fat hyped Arreola.

    Yeah Vitali, Wlad, Lewis, Holyfield, Ali, Tyson...all fit guys i guess they would be even better if they were flabby since muscles dont win fights and sure as hell fat doesnt win fights or Arreola would be the best ever.

    starvation doesn't mean not eating, its also when you drop calories rapidly without letting your body get used to it.

    i listened to a lot of arreola interviews on various different boxing sites, he was talking about eating 1-2 meals a day.
