a REAL encounter with Chris Arreola...

I met Arreola about one year ago. We talked about the Klitschko fight and what not. Cool guy and very down to earth. Great pic bro. BWAHAHAHAHA.....................I feel sorry for you man really. (For those wanting to check his credibility please check his thread below. Am sure he will be revamping under a new handle soon.) http://www.boxingscene.com/forums/showthread.php?t=504581

Yo everybody is meeting a boxer nowadays it seems. When will it be my turn... bro, boxers are the most approachable athletes on the planet. for lack of a better word they love attention. find a local fighter that you support in the crowd after a fight go to a local show and get a ringside seat if you really want to be involved with boxing. it's easy. just walk over and say hello, that you enjoyed the fight, if he knows when he'll be back in the ring (which i'm sure probably wont) so you can see him again. take a picture, thank him for the time, and head back to your seat. if you cant get a ringside seat, try moving down quickly to say hello. its a lot easier in a small venue. hell, if you get the right opportunity, there's hardly fighter on this planet that outright will not take a picture with you obviously they are people whose time needs to be respected when you get near the top but the fans are the ones paying the bills at the very least they are appreciated.

Cool pic man. So far Ive met Riddick Bowe (if you see a couple of his older fights, my cousin is in his corner) zab judah, Whitaker, and boom boom Johnson. Mark Breland is my second cousin.

Im waiting for someone to come and post this photo from 2 years ago now after that other freak was caught lying about being away from his PC and actually running and bumping into JMM lol good job OP and nice pic. Tell Areola he needs to run his fat ass into shape if you see him again...

Idk this was years ago.. It was him and his wife and kids.. His wife looked good.. He talked with a slur, boxing has affected him.. I was like drilling him with questions, he was cool though.. I asked if his kids would follow in his steps and he said no... Very nice and soft spoken guy.

Nice pic.. always been a fan of Arreola's. You didn't go for a 'jog' before this did you LOL.

Iv meet el maromero Paez at a walmart isn't he in jail?

Riverside has a decent boxer population. Josesito Lopez has a gym here, Mikey Garcia was raised here, and I went to high school with Michael Franco. we are on the rise, i tell you what.

Thats pretty cool. I don't think i've ever met a boxer. My sister did run into Mike Tyson once@ LAX ... it was actually the say day Tyson assaulted that paparazzi

That was taken like 5 weeks after his fight with quezada, so if anything he would have been bigger, not to mention he injured his hand so he probably wasnt training as much. it's weird to look at him, he's got this massive upper body, but you can tell he's a boxer when you see his calfs, 100% muscle lol. ah, well cool that you got to meet him. kinda funny he was trying to hide like some celeb, he must be pretty big down in riverside. :lol1:

chris arreola is a beefy dude, was at his fight in carson few months ago. he looks smaller in your picture.

A friend of mine got to talk to arreola on the phone, he was at a hockey game, and our state team was playing. My friend was producing the game, arreola was assisting doing colour commentary with the talent. This was before Arreola's losses, my friend hopped on the phone and told Chris that he thought he was the most exciting heavyweight out there, Chris was very humble and grateful and an all around nice dude... Mad props to Chris for not being a dick.

it loaded. nice pic.

hope it loads ok, I didnt want to edit it
