How much of a chance has Arreola of beating Vitali?

[S H O B O X]

slim to none .... vitali is just in a different class

[Jim Jeffries]

Vitali is 38 and has been shown to be vulnerable in the first round. Chris has two chances, to go after him early and with a vengeance, or wait until after the 6th or so when Vitali starts to lean back more to avoid punches, then attack him with combinations. I think Vitali will win, but his chances aren't as good as the 5 or 6 to 1 odds indicate.

[The Hammer]

I don't even think this fight will happen. Vitali will probably pull out with an injury. But if they fight, I'd have to go with Vitali even though I desire an Arreola victory.

So Vitali didn't pull out...

Those old kickboxing injuries have healed long ago.

[Mr Boxing9]

Of course he stands a chance, but a extremly thin one I feel. Arreola is made for Vitali, he has no defence, is easy to hit and a shaky chin. Vitali will pick him apart with power punchers and score a KO/TKO victory.

[Al Haymon]

I used to think that Chris had a good chance. But watching the weigh-in, I just don't like the size that Chris is giving up.

Does anyone think Arreola will last more than 8 rounds?

I'm thinking it will end in the 7th or 8th. Arreola will probably go down from an accumulation of Vitali's punches.

But that being said, there's a chance Vitali's age will have caught up to him and Arreola will catch him with some big punches before that.

I only give him a small outside change but he is still a very risky opponent. Chris is young and very hungry (no pun intended)

He also has good power and skills. Vitali will need to be focused.

[El Angel]

I'd say outside chance. Maybe Vitali's age will show up and it could just be Arreola's night. But Vitali should win it.
