Doode calm down...no one is crowning ma main man Arreola the king just yet...kat can box and he has good skill...he is still raw and hasn't been tested...but there is potential there...he can be legit for sure...let's pick up this convo after his next two...maybe three fights...then we can all make a better case for or against...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.Comment
