Being the best heavyweight in North America plus $1.50 gets you a 20-ounce coke from the local gas station.

Arreola is certainly one of the top three, along with Chambers and Thompson.
If he got into a bit better shape, he would probably be the best American heavyweight.Comment

Damn, I have him in top 10 but not 1.
I think monte barret is still better then arreola. Thompson is probably best we have.
Arreola reminds me of Calvin Brock back before Klitschko beat him. Americans all hyped him up as a great HW that would clean the division, except I think Brock is better then Arreola.
Honestly I dont think Arreola can go any higher then where hes at right now. He has bad defense, hasnt gone past 6 rounds yet (I suspect he would run out of gas), and hes slow. He also cant take a good punch but he does have heart and power. To be a champion you need to have atleast 3 of these 5 qualities and Arreola only has 2 heart and power (more snap than power).
I know someone will bad karma me for this but I put myself apart from most people here in that I actually reason in my analsys. Im good at it. Im 7-0 for my last few breakdowns, I picked Hopkins over Pavlik, Calzagh over jones, Callebero over Molitor, Darchinyan over Mijares and a few others. Im good at reading fighters and Arreola isnt going to win a belt.
Tye Fields would beat Arreola in my honest opinion, and thats not good.Last edited by Hous; 11-30-2008, 06:06 PM.Comment

Funny thing about Brock is that he was a fighter that nobody gave a second look too as an Olympion and as a pro. Then he keep winning then they started talking but never to extreme that he'd beat Klitcko.
With the Klitchkos once they face an inside fighter that can stay in front of them in the inside they will lose. There Giants that have great advantages.Comment
