    I wouldn't judge that WLAD can't KO him from that fight, I don't know if he can of not...but a fight in which scoring a KO was the LAST thing on WLAD's mind is not indicative one way or the other.

    Maybe they're hoping the Iggy who fought Tim Austin shows up. That Iggy gets his ass whooped by Arreola. Other than that, I agree with everyone else. Iggy boxes circles around Arreola all night and frustrates the hell out of him.

    I don't think Cris is ready for Sultan, I'd say Sultan by comfortable decision.

    I don't like either of them, and I don't think IGGY can expose Arreola.

    What a great way to, not only knock Arreola off his unbeaten pedestal, but also get Ibragimov, who is a great boxer, back in the mix, in one fell swoop!

    Bring it on!

    Ibragimov to win by as wide of a decision as the cards will alllow.

    I like Arreola and think he can make some noise but this is a risky fight for him. I think Sultan employs enough movement and quickness to give Arreola fits. It looks to be an entertaining fight and close to 50/50(with a slight edge to Sultan), I hope it gets made.

    Sultan is a terrible matchup for Arreola.

    He could absolutely box him to death, Chris should NOT take this fight.

    Arreola is the slowest Heavyweight I have ever seen.

    Sultan's a good fighter and in theory, he should box circles around the crude Arreola but weren't there questions regarding his willingness to continue to fight? I can't help but recall a time when Sultan was almost contemplating retirement not too long ago. I could be wrong but if Sultan doesn't have the right mindset for fighting he may very well be in for a long night against a young, hungry fighter like Arreola.

    i reckon it will be 120-108 Sultan. If Sultan can take Wlad's right cross and slaps, Arreola's love taps should be no problem. He also looks slower than Valuev :yep

    It's gonna be like the matrix in there.

    Let's be clear...go out on a limb here, will you...???

    If Arreola can somehow KD or KO IGGY, will you say he has better or comparable power to WLAD...???
