    How Big would it be not only for the Heavyweight Division but for American Boxing as well??

    It would be big, but there is no chance of it happening imo. Chambers is the best american heavyweight, he has really impressed me and many others recently. I think he would school Arreola.

    As much as I'd like to see that...
    I can't picture it in any scenario.

    **** can happen... it's heavyweights. But there would be a rematch and I doubt Cristobal would be able to do it again.

    It'd be a shocker imo. It could help HW cuz it puts him in position to face Wlad for full unification, which VK of course ain't gonna do. And hell yea it gives American HW's a lil shot in the arm, tho the K bros are pretty respected by now, if not popular altogether.

    it's not gonna happen, but if it did, vitali would get an immediate rematch and nullify the fluke.

    A few years fighting the Klitschko clan one at a time is what would happen I reckon.

    It probably depends on how exciting the fight is.

    If Areola KOs him, but Vitali looks old, lethargic, or looks injured (not due to punch accumulation), or if it looks like a lucky shot, then a lot of people will dismiss it.

    If there are some fireworks back and forth and Areola pulls it off, then he'll get a lot of attention from it (provided of course that he doesn't pull a Buster Douglas afterwards)

    Don't think it's going to happen though. His best chance is a Vitali injury in the ring.

    Basically for Areola to get credit for a hypothetical KO, I think he has to get hit first and fight through it. If he wins by apparent blowout, then most people will assume he fought a badly faded or injured old man

    If it happened he'd get respect for it. The nature of the KO has alot to do with the amount and type of respect. If its a war and he then he hurts him, he'll get a fair amount more praise then if he just blew Vitali out of the water.



    Of course, I highly doubt Arreola will pull this off. More then likely Vitali stops him.

    I give Chis one chance in ten of KO Vitali, and thats if, and its a big if Chis actually tries to hit him, By hit him I mean chase Vitali around the ring trying to land the "big one".
    If Chris tries to box, Vitali wins unless there's a miracle on the order of the parting of the red sea.

    This would be huge, it will be the first Latino that is accepted by fight fans as a champion, Ruiz just gave the idea of a Latino heavyweight champion a bad ****ing name this would be the first Mexican HW champion and comming from California he will gain alot of support from the fight fans

    Areola's chances of winning imo is if Vitali were to get injured like in the Byrd fight.

    Even tho if by some chance that does even happen, He will get his ass whooped by Wladomir, as the cycle of the revengeful brothers will prevail as history proves....

    This sucks tho, cause id rather see Chambers vs. Vitali and Areola vs. Wlad. I think those would be better. But still good fights and both Klits will prevail imo.
