Seth Mitchell vs. Chris Arreola: who would win? - Page 2

BostonGuy

Who knows what shape Arreola is in after taking off 2012. Mitchell is always in good shape and is the more active fighter.

While this is true Arreola wasn't hurt he was hit clean and he was poised enough to take a knee. He was patient with Travis after the KD. While Seth was a bit lost when he was hurt. I also would take into consideration Arreola's experience under these circumstances.

i think arreola would win in a slugfest. mitchell still looks like a gifted athlete who took to boxing. arreola is a fighter.

it would be a hellacious fight. what action there would be. that HW boxing is literally a nonfactor is something i've come to take for granted. in the 90's and earlier, winning the the HW championship of the world was one of the greatest achievements in sport. it used to be the biggest event on the planet.

my, how things have changed.

arreola in six or seven rounds. he might even have to come off of the canvas. i think he'd try to box early, but eventually work his way into a gunfight. even though mitchell has the better habits and undoubtedly trains harder, it's fighting experience that leads me to believe that mitchell would tire rather quickly in a fight with a beast like arreola.

the longer the fight goes the more i'd favor arreola. he's got so much more experience. mitchell is the more conditioned athlete, but arreola is the only fighter between the two.

The problem with Jennings and Mitchell is they are guys who played other sports and than got into boxing.

Malik Scott is the most pure boxer of all the American HW's right now.

you do realize if Walker has anything it's a hard punch, which Arreola shook off and was fine right after

Mitchell doesn't hit as hard as Walker at all

Whoever lands cleanly first could take it.

I'd go with Arreola based on his experience in high-volume exchanges. He had 300+ amateur fights and has brawled with guys like Mitchell plenty of times.

Very hard to predict, I reckon Arreola could take it based on experience even though I'm more of a Mitchell fan.

Not really.

Wladimir vs. Haye was one of the biggest events in Europe last year.
