Wladimir Klitschko vs. Chris Arreola is Close For May 16

[Silencers]

Yeah, pretty much. He has a chance if he goes balls out and tries to get into Wlads head, but that really isnt likely.
Klitschko gets another impressive KO.

Arreola's only chance is to put pressure on Klitschko from the opening bell, he can't just stand there looking at Klitschko like he did with Walker, he'd get picked apart by that jab right down the middle.

And that's not even a big chance because Arreola is pretty wide open when he goes forward and wings his shots, Wlad just has to do what he normally does, move a few steps back or to the side and pepper Arreola with the jab.

I agree, the kid is gonna get slaughtered.

The nice thing about this fight is that we know what to expect from Arreola; he's going for the knock-out. It's just the way he fights. He's rough, inexperienced, and is going to come forward. That means Klitschko will have to chop 'the nipple' off. Unless Chris gets that 'oh ****' jab in his face and decides he's in the wrong sport. I'm looking for a nice, quick stoppage from Klitschko.

wlad is gona beat the guy and finish him in the 1st round , if not 2nd.

Chris Arreola is a young/strong guy and I believe if he studies Wladimir Klitscho's fight tapes, focuses on making weight and comes up with a game plan to get around or under Klitscho's jab, he definitely has a chance to win with one punch. I feel the Klitscho's need to get beat out of top 1 & 2 because these guys are holding all the titles and refusing to fight each other so in order to get some order we need some Heavy Weights in there that can contend. And if anyone has a chance it is definitely Arreola. Yes Walker did put him on one knee but Chris got up & put the business on him. To me it's a toss up win depending on who is hungry and seriously coming to fight.

Ahh...its always evident throughout the forums of the biased arguements, time and time again.

Look, Arreola is young and hungry, just like most of you mentioned, but also inexperienced, or not as experienced as the Steelhammer. But, after Arreolas last fight, you can only image the amount of entertainment you'll get out of this, which is what anything on t.v really is. Point being it'll be an exciting fight nonetheless, its just a little ****** not to give the kid any credit.

Wlads a beast, no doubt about it. He's obviously been running through his opponents like nothing lately, pretty boring, IMO. Maybe Chris can give him a run for his money.

Not to sure about this fight. I think Arreola needs at least one more bout against a serious contender before he faces Klitschko. A serious loss for Arreola could derail his confidence and career. He's got time...why take the risk so soon?

Exactly!!!!!

I don't knock Wlad for his style of fighting as it has made him successful and the best HW out there the last few years. But I remember Wlad changing his style to be more cautious AFTER he was KTFO after someone actually touched his chin! When his opponents are on the offensive, Wlad is on the defensive. If Arreola comes out on the offensive, and actually trains to slip and counter off Wlad's jab, he will KO Wlad in the early middle rounds. I have to see Wlad actually take some solid shots, and stay on his feet afterwards, to really believe that he is more than a product of the terrible HW era. If Arreola cannot test him, then he will not be tested for years to come!
