I understand that alot of they Arreola hope/hype stems from him being the only real american hw that hasn't gotten a shot and failed yet (Thompson,Chambers,Ruiz).
In his fight with Chazz i remember the announcers saying Chazz had only been boxing a few years, i expected them to say the same for Chris, when they mentioned that Arreola had been boxing since he was like 12 i was blown away. How can you do somthing for more then half your life and not even be able to grasp the fundementals.
-He SEEMS to have a chin but it hasn't truly been tested yet
-He leans forward from the waist like he's checking to see if his shoe-laces are tied up, He'll get decapitated against anyone with half a brain and a good uppercut in their arsenal
-He ****s his elbow out when he's throwing punches alot of the time, looks weird but does seem to have some power in spite of this
basically he's tough and will take a good beating but any real top ten guy will school him, face it there doesn't seem to be any legitimate American heavies, deal with it and stop pumping this ****in guy.
I'm Always going to root for Slavic fighters but i'm also rational about it Dimitrenko,Boytsov,*****ko,Ustinov all have shortcomings but there is real substance, talent and potential. Oleg Platov on the other hand, while i'm a fan i realize he is limited and probably won't ever be a serious contender, just a tought SOB who can throw bombs and entertain. Please try to be real with this stuff, the Arreola hype is getting annoying.
