    Arreola would have to pull off a near miracle to win this fight. He could get enough shots in to make it exciting though.

      See Vitali Klitschko vs. Samuel Peter for an accurate prediction.

        He has a slim to none chance, he's taylor made for Vitali. He'll make it interesting while it last, which won't be long.

            I think Arreola will give Vitali some tough rounds. Remember Vitali was kd in sparring against Travis Walker, who ironically put Cris on the canvas. People pay too much attention to Arreola's weight. Cris is comfortable fighting at that weight, if not he would no be undefeated. Cris has beat decent opponents (none on Vit's level) and Vitali is slowing down. Cris is easy to hit, and Vitali is one of the best at finding [his] opponents head rhythm and timing it to set up the big punch so I think the fight will go 7-8 rounds. Would not be surprised if Vitali gets knocked down at least once..........Would not be surprised to see Tyson-Douglas re-visited in this one either. Could go either way.

              So you think because Vitali tore his knee up sparring with Travis Walker and fell down 4 years ago, that somehow that has any baring on this fight...Uhh and Chris can be comfortable fighting a 300 lbs, but that doesn't mean that he's lasting past 4 rounds with Vitali. Vitali has fought more rounds his last two fights that Chris in his last 7. And the reason Chris is undefeated is 100% the competition he has faced. Im sorry, but when your best win is against a guy who originally refused the fight stating that they were retired and too fat...you know youve faced some lousy competition. Also this Vitali slowing down thing is so unfounded its not even funny. People cite the fact that he didn't look too great against Gomez. He was never in any trouble, he spent a few rounds knocking the rust off and getting his timing back against a fighter who would take any HW time to figure out (a southpaw former cruiser with good defense is going to annoy most HW's of any era...oh and a guy who had won 45 fights and lost 1.) Vitali did not want to knock Gomez out early, he wasn't going for that. He just fought his fight, was patient and picked his spots. Just look at how he treated the 9th round. He literally hits Gomez and turns to the ref to see if he'll stop it, then Vitali hits Gomez again and again turns to the ref as if to say, "Stop this I don't want to hurt anyone." Vitali might be slower, but Ive seen nothing to suggest that.

              How can you say you wouldn't be surprised to see Vitali get knocked down. Thats like saying you wouldn't be surprised in seeing a 19-0 season this year from an NFL team. Its never happened, so I would think itd be a little bit surprising. Also the idea that Vitali would enter a fight unprepared or unfocused like Tyson did against Douglas is laughable. Vitali is always prepared and focused.

              Only chance Vitali loses is if he trips and tears his ACL on the way to the ring.

                    The only somewhat good news for Arreola is that his face couldnt possibly get any uglier even after the beating.

                      I'd go with it being an outside chance, an Arreola win is possible just not probable.
