Sounds like he might be a decent opponent for Arreola. I have seen Arreola fight twice and was impressed, but his opponents weren't world beaters either. If he could KO a guy that hasn't been stopped that would be nice.

This is a good fight card. Malcolm Tann is a strong boxer who seems to have a good chin, so this might be an interesting matchup - at worst, it's a good test of Chris Arreola's power. And Guinn is the ideal test for Chambers at this stage in his career.

A Chambers vs Arreola fight would be great to see next. They have fought on the same card twice now I think. Let's see if both take the risk.

I agree with the other posters here, that Malcom Tann's a much better opponent than Arreola's previous one. I've seen 'christobal' fight once and wasn't that impressed but don't want to judge this guy on one performance. We'll see how he does against Tann.....
