    I noticed that too. He's still very athletic, but he's getting older, and so can't always move as fluidly as he wants to when backing up. But overall he moved very well.

    His stamina was excellent for a 38 year old - he still had lots left in the tank when Arreola was running out, in the 9th and 10th rounds.

      When he he is slipping some of the punchs espeically while moving he looks like that. or he going to fall down with a slip.

      Even though he wins but he need to improve his leg movement because Arrealo is was not moving that much but for a fighter like David Haye or Sultan...etc

      those fighter who are very active he would face some problems with them
      there's nothing for him to improve in his footwork. that's just how he moves. he has always looked like that and he always will.

        Break,

        wlad and vitali are on a whole other level than the rest of the HWs...i think Haye gets laid out or gets punished worse than arreola

              I don't hate on David Haye but he would not touch Vitali. Wlad would be his best shot but i think the size difference would be far too great for Haye to get a win.

                I agree he didnt look totally in control of his movements as he avoided arreolas attempts to close the gap and he did look a little clumsey at times, but that was only at times, other times he was crisp and sharp in his movements. He threw a lot of punches too for a big guy and lasted the distance really well. Not actually being hit with a meaningful punch probably helped too. Overall, i think he moved very well for his size. The fight wasnt the most exciting ever, that could be the fact that vitali never looked in any danger and could basically do what he wanted
