    What's important when two contender like this go to war jus like wit Chazz vs. Arreola or Chambers vs. Povetkin is that both fighters move on after it and keep fightin ya kno? Worse thing to do is retire and call it quits after losin to a good contender.

Travis is a very good fighter,Chris is just better. I'll be in the first row on 11/29 when he beats Walker with ease. You all seem to knock someone that you really do not know anything about. Chris trains as much as he needs to for each fight. I might not agree with that but, I've seen what he can do and, it works for him. I have seen him get nailed a few times and he can take a punch and when he let's go whoever is fighting him is in alot of trouble. All the guys at HBO seem to have alot of praise for Chris. You must know something they or myself does not know.
        his chin is still untested. he hasnt faced a big puncher yet

          The 'jury's still out' on whether Arreola is a bonafide contender or overhyped brawler. Boxing fans should find out in November when he faces another up-and-coming prospect/contender Travis Walker...

            Chris's chin has been tested I've seen it . He also has been hit very hard. You do not have to have a big name to be able to land good punches. I have seen him get hit and hard he can take a punch. If you would have seen as many of his fights as I have you would know he can take a punch. I've been at a few of his fights were he got the **** out of him and he still won by KO. Chris's biggest asset is he has heart and he's hungry that will take you along way,add his skill just equals one thing HW champ of the world I do not know Chris by watching on tv a couple of times I know by being at his fights and actually seeing whay he can do.

              come on man. youre clearly being biased here. Im not talking big names here. the fact is he hasnt faced a good puncher yet. until he does there's no proof he has a good chin

                I might be biased but I've seen him fight and seen him get hit alot Anyone at any time can pack a punch. I have seen Chris get hit hard plenty of times enough so I thought he was going to lose. I've watched him take a beating more than once. I would not be doing all this talking I have on this site if I had any doubts of what I've said. I do NOT want to make a fool out of myself.

                  well thaat doesnt bode too well for him if he's taken a lot of punishment from just journeymen type opponents. whats going to hapeen when he fights the more accurate sharper punchers such as the klits,,,chageav,,dimentriko etc. anyway,,I like him,,he's fun to watch but I just cant see him getting by the top guys. we'll see
