    I think it was proven on Arreola's last fight that anyone with a jab will win to Arreola sure he knocked Walker out but he was jabbing Arreola to the point that Arreola didn't know what to do, until Walker got too much confidence and Arreola caught him but Klitschko will beat him.

        Would be a big fight in the USA, or Germany. Maybe i would like to see Arreola fight a top 10 contender first or a former champion etc Maskaev, Ibragimov,Peter, just someone who fought at the top level as he only really fought decent prospects and fringe contenders etc Witherspoon,Walker. But if does fight Wlad would most likely be fireworks and i would go with a Wlad tko win.

          Still too early for Chris Arreola. My man needs to use 2009 for a for a few more tune-up fights. Either one of the Klitschko brothers would easliy handle him.

            Arreola not ready for W.Klitschko

            Arreola needs to fight someone with a good jab like Kevin Johnson 21-0 (8KOs). He doesn't have much power so he won't be as much of a threat, but he's still a pretty good prospect and I think his jab is better than Wlad's. Only problem is he comes in out of shape like he did against Walker, Johnson will take him to school.

              Chris Arreola, not ready for worl champ fights..

              He needs alot of improvement defensively, his ko abilities are great, but if fighting the best of the world, he would need more than just a lucky punch to win a fight. The heavywieght division is known as the k.o division, but when fighting the elite of the sport he will need better boxing skills than just a 'powerpunch" hopefully he is smart enough to take a few prep fights in '09 before fighting any champ...

                You know that Arreola is one of the few American boxers that has had a pretty long amature career and didn't get plucked from another sport like everyother american fighter. I think he has a better chance than anyother American prospect right now thats for sure.

                  I agree, the man needs to focus on getting in extremely good shape if he wants to compete against the elite though.

                    Yeah he completely destroyed witherspoon when he came in around the high 230's. If he can get to the high 220's he has a really good chance of competeing with anyone. I think he has really underated boxing skills and he has power in both hands.
