Very interesting matchup...Areola decent speed..good boxing skills...can punch.Against Peter whom has one punch knockout power in both hands and imo showed tremendous heart against McCline and also gave Klitschko a hard time.
Arreola will do just like Montana.

I fail to see what others see in Arreola.
me too. he's a good but nothing special.
I'm not sayin it would be a tough fight for Arreola, I do say that he outworks him over those 10 rounds without getting hurt. Arreola has yet to see the tenth round and seeing how he doesnt care to conserve punches tells me he has a ton of energy in the tank and knows he wont gas. Also he doesnt really care about getting hit and takes punches quite well.
Good chin, stamina, and great workrate, beats an old Tua every time.
we'll see how much tua has left.
he's 35 but he doesn't have that high mileage. he's been down to around 235 his 3 fights last year.
everybody outworks tua. not many can do it for 10 full rounds.
though he is old and washed up. he's still a tough win to get.
guys with rock solid chins and power are very hard to beat. ask guys who have failed against a 60 yr. old oliver mccall.

All Tua has to do is sign the contract so he can get his iron chin beatdown for 12 rounds (if he still possesses the same chin). Arreola would outwork him if he still has the same chin, if he doesnt a mid round KO is in his future.

How do you know Arreola wouldn't be able to beat up Peter? Arreola has a very high output straight punches, and he hits fucking hard. Not to mention he seems to be happy to fight, he could also out box Peter, as Peter can't box worth shit. Arreola is quite a boxing prospect.
I agree with everything except the outboxing, which I think Peter is and could be better as he showed in the Toney rematch. If Peter's fat ass actually trained the same for every fight he would be destroying heavyweights and beat every 200+ guy out there.
Having said that, Arreola with more experience could outwork and knock out Peter. This would be a war and the best action fight there is in the heavyweight division.
it's not funny if you know boxing.
those two are probably the only guys in the top 15-20 that tua can beat.
the reason being is neither is relatively fast , neither are extremely tall heavyweights (6'1-6'3 is manageable for tua compared to 6'5-6'7) and neither are slick movers or boxers.
both peter and arreola will eventually trade with tua and tua 1. still has power and 2. still has a granite chin.
have you ever seen an arreola fight? he loops his punches and he squares up on his opponent. that wouldn't be very smart to do against tua.
peter is as slow as old , fat tua. power is comparable but you and i both know tua's chin is better. peter will win rounds but in a slugfest my money is on tua's chin.

Arreola has a lot of heart, good power, keeps his hands up, decent chin. Looks rough as hell despite a pretty extensive amateur background. Call me crazy but I think he beats Peter. He'll have a tougher time getting past Tua, IMO.
Tua! Now THATS funny!!
:crackhead

I think Chris woud give Peter some problems. That would be a great fight.
Hmmm 2 guys with very little boxing skills clubbing each other, even so Arreola is garbage EVEN compared to Peter. Peter would deystroy him. Peter by 1st round KO.
Peter would knock the shit out of areola.
