      i agree with your guy's statements, BUT i think that at 38 years old, VK is open to losing to a 28 year old power puncher with good chin and hand speed.... arreola just steamrolled over mccline and nobody has really done that...

      although VK has the better chin, it looks to me that wlad has became harder to hit...

          I don't think Arreola poses him much of a problem.

              Arreola really doesn't pose much of a threat to anyone.

                he probably isnt.... ideally he should take another fight against a top 10-20 guy like brock, brewster, sultan, rahman to get him ready... but he has power and will trade leather with VK, so you never know... i would have loved to see him and haye fight for the right to a title shot, but oh well...

He's basically going to end up as a gatekeeper. Unfortunately, taking this fight with Vitali is just going to significantly advance the date he's demoted to gatekeeper status...to basically the day after his fight with Vitali.
                  I absolutely agree. I've been saying it for a while now, the day these "prospects" get the Klit fight they are so desperately seeking out is the day they stop being prospects. And by that I do not mean they become champs.

                  Even so, I agree that Arreola has a puncher's chance, but every heavyweight does. Both Klits are incredibly talented and have to much expirience or talent for any of the current contenders. Especially the American ones.

                    i really feel for arreola, i heard that he was slightly sceptical about fighting so soon because he had concerns over cutting weight. iv heard that he wanted the fight at a alater date so that he could be properly trained and ready.

                    vitali is a good fighter and generally gets more respect than his brother but i think he is due a loss soon. vs gomez he didn't look good, gomez southpaw stance and awkwardness meant that vitali was exhausted by round 6. i can't help but think thata pressure fighter with good lateral movement, who is constantly feinting and forcing vitali to change direction will have alot of success.

                    but arreola is not that type of fighter, the small time scale means that he won't come into the fight at 100% but even if he had it would be a big ask. i see vitali stopping him, i think it will be alot like sam peter vs vitali, where vitali dominates with his jab and drops the occasional thudding right hand.

                      The Klitschkos are a JOKE!

                      Arreola is not a dangerous opponent for either klit and he is not even in the top 5 Heavyweights

                      1. Vitali
                      2. Wladamir
                      3. Eddie Chambers
                      4. Valuev
                      5. David Haye
                      6. Alexander Peovetikin
                      7.......

                      Do not believe the hype guys, Arreola is just another cherry picked bum. If he had a 91% ko percentage like Haye or a 4 inch height advantage like Valuev the fight would have never been made.
