Chris Arreola is Overrated

[T-97]

Lol. Now we got some saying he'd DESTROY Klitschko. I respect other people opinions and I dont lose it when someone says a fighter will beat a fighter Im a fan of, but gimmie a break. I dont think Arreola has been tested yet.

He has! Chaz Witherspoon wasn't an untalented, robotic fighter who everyone was waiting to see beaten! Oh wait... *Expects someone to diss Khan*

That's his biggest win, I think. An when Chaz Witherspoon is your biggest win, you know you don't have a top notch resume. Klitschko TKOs him pretty easily imo.

Yea I think he needs to at least fight some "gatekeepers" first. There are plenty of fighters who can challenge him, there's no need to rush in a fight with Wladimir, who has a waiting list apparently.

Yeah blocking punches with your face isn't the sign of a great boxer.

The **** does that mean?

[extracurRICular]

what you fail to realize is that people respect heart and determination, hence why Lamon Brewster was/is so beloved despite his lack of pugilistic refinement. Sure there is a significant chance that Cristobal won't dominate the heavyweight ranks with his porous defense and his lack of boxing prowess. However, he has some respectable power along with a HUGE engine that never stops and he thouroughly enjoys fighting, its a great reprieve from the lackluster effort and performances of the current top contenders. Think about it, Wlad has the skill, power, and intelligence to rule supreme over the division and it's fans, but his unwillingness to push his advantage or to excite the crowds has hurt him. No matter what side fo the equation your on in regards to being a fan of Wlad's or a hater, some want to see him fight while others rue it. As for Arreola, his deficientcies are evident to all, but yet everyone wants to see him fight. Boxing as like all sports is entertainment, as thus the participants are entertainers. Cristobal Arreola always entertains us, even with his post-fight interviews. While sometimes the other top heavyweights make for great sleeping material. While Chazz Witherspoon, Thomas Hayes, Damien Wills, and Malcolm Tann aren't the best the division have to offer, but they're not the worst either. If Sultan is smart this is a winnable bout, but this fight could be reminiscent of Cotto/Margarito. With the more talented man (Ibragimov) winning the eearly rounds but the pressure could ware him down and the pressure fighter (Arreola) could ebat the fight out of him. Its an interesting matchup and to counter either man out for various reasons short-changes the fighters involved and actually shows maybe you should invest a little more time into appreciating the fighters instead of disrespecting them.

I dont normally hand out compliments in this or any other forum...but I gotta hand it to you dawg....very well said...I agree with every last word in this post...

[WLAD OWNS]

Thanks for the laugh!

The **** does that mean?

I think he meant that Arreola has no regard for defense.

[Clegg]

People like Derranged and T-97 manage to be fans of Wlad without being a **** and insulting other nations and all non-Slavic fighters.

Why is it that you struggle with this?

[BattlingNelson]

Thanks for the laugh!

Yeah right.

[mrlopez]

Arreola is fat, slow, one dimensional and he blocks way too many punches with his face...

He might block too many with his face, BUT the fact is that WLAD gets KTFO when he blocks with his face! WLAD has the sorriest chin for a champ in the HW Division.

[Gojira]

Lets hope he blocks Tua`s left hook with his face so that its a short fight.
