I don't think they can ban him from boxing. Fightnews say he's being suspended from the WBC rankings. Doubt Chris gives a **** though.
He needs a good lawyer because, in November last year, after he beat Travis Walker he said in the interview, which all present could hear: "Man, that was one tough mother****er!" and they still let him fight for the title!
Arreola has a responsibility as a public figure to not speak that way. He also makes homophobic remarks on a regular basis.
He will simply be banned from all WBC fights until that time. Given the beating that he took, I'd be surprised if he was in action prior to that anyway. Margarito 12 months...... Arreola 6 months :-( Fat **** should use the time to get into some sort of shape. He shouldn't be any higher than 230 - ideally 220.
This is nothing more than a misguided gesture from a sanctioning body who still delude themselves into thinking they're some kind of world boxing authority.
Were the people who were offended by the language the same people who sat and watched excitedly as he was repeatedly punched in the face over for half an hour by the giant Ukrainian Dr. Ironfist?
