    Good for him but Arreola's best days are behind him.. And even then he always lost when faced against elite opposition... So no hes not taking over the HW division

    Was no shame in that, he took his beating like a man and showed incredible heart in that fight despite being outclassed in every possible way. You can blame him for always being out of shape but not so much for his performance against Vitali.

    Nah sorry, I will not condone crying on a stool, unless you got a seriously powerful low blow, the old "cobbler cruncher".

    Other than that, suck it up and then go and have a sob in the dressing room.

    Arreola would be a good test for Joyce.

    Always liked Chris, met him a couple of times, and watched him rise through the LA fight scene. But his lack of discipline was his undoing and even if he's somehow found self control, the damage is done. Those hard fights and years of abuse won't go away.

    Yes then proceed to lose every second of every round and quit.

    Imo Kaufman did beat him.

    And Arreloa is still fat and now he looks slow as hell.

    Oh boo-hoo. His emotions got the better of him. He gave it his all and wanted to continue.

    I agree, be a man, don't embarrass yourself and your family by blubbering like a child on a stool.

    Take your slaps like a warrior and move on.

    **** happens. This is worthless thing to complain about. Dude showed massive heart. That should trump it.

    Reminded me of some twat saying Cotto should have hidden his onbiously injured arm. Said that him not covering it up and letting Max ask about it was just a way to make excuses...

    He wobbled Wilder badly and was lighting him up like a Christmas tree before predictably walking into right hands and left hooks and getting stopped.
