Simply Amazing..

I haven't watched such a good heavyweight fight in so long I can't even remember. all around the board Klitschko dominated Arreola, as bad as I feel for Arreola I can't show him no leniency because he had the time to train and chose instead to miss 10+ days as reported by Jim Lampley and admittedly by Arreola himself.. it was an awesome fight and Arreola is a game fighter, it makes me like Arreola now because I now understand his goal is to win and all but even more so it's to please the fans, it's to have them be proud of him which surpasses money and any other reason a man would have to fight, in losing he really won because he gave it his all and anyone with eyes can see that.. I look forward to watching Arreola fight again, I know that after today it may be on a non major event but to see him throw his hands is entertaining, every shot he threw I had this feeling he could tumble Vitali down but Vitali proved me right, I picked Vitali but my heart was with Chris, this was a good scrap man very good fight.. thought's anyone?

anyone catch how Lampley cold shouldered Arreola, he was correct but he certainly went too hard on Arreola, it wasn't like Chris was talking shit u know he was humble he just missed a few days, I don't condone that but I think Jim may have been a little too rought on Cristobal, what do y'all think? maybe or maybe not but I just think Arreola deserved more props than hate, thelength of time he was able to stand up to Vitali added to the fact that he didn't even correctly train leads me to believe he would have been much better in the fight had he devoted himself a little more, he wasn't mentally ready

No doubt. Chris fought his butt off. Wlad is in good shape too.

yea man Vitali's jab was awesome and the power punches? it was just an overall great display, Klitschko showed he was the real deal, he faced adversity and passed his test, I am genuinely impressed being that of the 2 I always thought Wladimir was better but IMO Vitali now is, he's been in all out dog fights and hasn't even been knocked down while Wladimir has been knocked out 3 times, it was better than I expected man to be honest, Cristobal Arreola is a warrior man, he made it into a fight with his bold heart, he earned the respect of everyone present yo that indescribably hard to do, a lot of people walk into fights and lose, in fact in mostly every fight but not everybody can lose and leave with the respect of a winner. this is what Heavyweight Boxing should be like each and every time there is a Heavyweight fight.

If he were a little darker they'd think that was Larry Holmes in there.
