This is a very good heavyweight matchup.

Can Arreola handle the big, strong, hard-punching Travis Walker as easily as he did Witherspoon?

Nah Witherspoon couldn't stand there and trade wit Arreola, Walker can. Walker head hunts too much thou, dude needs to work the body then up to the head. Walker has a decent chance against Arreola and Arreola's chin is gonna really be tested here.

Arreola is soft around the belly. If Walker doesn't try to land body punches on arreolas soft body, then he is an idiot. I know its harder to do then to say, but he has to make those openings happen.

But that was an early stoppage, Walker said he wasn't even buzzed by Wilson's punches. Walker destroyed Wilson in the rematch.

Most people will choose Arreola to win, but I'm going out on a limb and predicting Walker.

Care to bet on it? I think Oasis was banned so I still have points.

Lets do a modest bet of 10 K. Then I'll still have enough points to cover my Cunningham bets.

Ok, I sigged it. Good luck, also I do think this is a 50/50 fight though. If Walker is intelligent he can beat Arreola. Basically who ever is the smarter man in this fight wins. I don't think Walker is smart enough to execute a good game-plan.

I think this fight entirely depends on what kind of shape Arreola is in. If he comes into this fight looking like he did in his last fight, he's in trouble because I don't think he'll be able to go more than a few rounds.

When I saw Arreola in his last fight I realized he doesn't have the dedication to boxing required to become heavyweight champion.

These fatties like Gabe Brown, Chris Koval, Darryl Madison and Arreola give the heavyweight division a negative public image.

If anyone givin 2:1 odds for Walker I'll take him. I think Walker has a good chance of winnin and will definitely test Arreola.
