    if he fights wald and lose do he still have a future in boxing?

    i'm talking about chris arreola.....if he fights wald and lose (which i think he will) would he still have a future in boxing? i mean he still got time he's only 27 and if he work on his god damn ****ty of a defense he'll be a great boxer...plus he can bring exciement (spelling?) to the ring....

    He will probably continue to fight, but he is not champ material IMO. I don't think he'll be getting a belt anytime soon.

        If all those who can't/couldn't beat Wlad 'don't have a future in boxing' the HW division would be very quiet!!

        I agree with previous posters, Arreola won't beat Wlad (or Vitali) who is simply out of his league but he would have a shot against Valuev. I don't agree so much regarding future potential; the guy is a pro with 26 fights behind him and I can't see any dramatic changes happening now. The best thing he could do is work on his fitness; sooner or later he will need to go 12 rounds to win and keep throwing punches while doing it.

          Arreola is a fun guy to watch so he'll be able to come back if he loses. Thing is right now I don't see any HW's wit any real future cuz I don't see the K bros losin to any of these guys.

            One loss at 27 is not the end of his career.

              Hell yes he would, it might even motivate the fat SOB to get back into shape. Hell, he used to be a LHW not that long ago.

                  but right now he's getting so much hype that i'm wondering if he'll have any future in boxing

                  i ageere that he might not be champ material....but with champs like valuev anyone can be a champ these days

                    Agree. I don't think people expect him to win anyway so he's not risking much in the first place. If he loses, so what.... that's what he's supposed to do.
