There's a thin line between hate and brutal honesty, and it's blurred on this site. I think most people aren't trying to hate the guy, but at the same time they aren't going to sit here and be told that he's ready for either Klitschko or the Hayemaker and just believe it. He is the top HW prospect in the US, and that means 2 things these days. Jack and ****. Any CW with an equal amount of fights and quick hands and feet would bury this guy. Ok not bury but outbox and win on points.

See that's not hate, that's just what I see. I'm not buying the hype about a dude who literally comes in to a fight with gelatinous **** and who admits his strategy was to put his head down and wing overhand shots until one connected. The left that dropped Walker was well timed, but Walker's defense went to **** after the 2nd round. Any decent and composed fighter would've blocked it.

In conclusion: No hatery. Just honesty.

I'm not drinking the kool-aid on Arreola either but I accept him for what he is and see that he's still going to go further. To the tip-top of the HW picture? Probably not.

But you can say that anyone with hand speed beats him. You just can't.
Sure his comp hasn't been the greatest but he's taking care of business the way he should be. Knockouts.

I know Walker should good hand speed and combo's but Chris adjusted and it took him another round to knock him out. Savior? Nope. Legit prospect that entertains enough to be on HBO? Hell yes.

I think they mostly hate on him because, subconsciously, most people realize that his name not only sounds like, but is one letter from being compared to the outer area surrounding the nipple on a female's breast.

That, and he really hasn't been tested yet.

For a while the same people who are now dissing Arreola (and Haye too) where the same ones complaining about how the heayweight division was a borefest. You get some exciting fighters in there who may not be the best but will give you one hell of a fight and show and now they have people hating on them left and right.

agreed

I hear people saying that they are over rated too.. I don't think anyone is saying they are the greatest heavyweights out right now but I seen some bums get title shots in the heavy division and if they can have a title shot, why can't Haye and Arreola?

exactly... you get these no name mandatories that no one cares to see or fighters like Ray Austin getting shots with Klitschko and getting blown out the water..... thats not too exicting
