    Minto vs Areolla

    I don't know much about Minto, can he pull off an upset here?

    Areolla is terrible except for having above average power, Does Minto have any skills to outbox him?

    I was talkin to TJ Wilson about it yesterday, neither of us thought he had much of a chance. Lost to Krasniqi? Who? Props to Chris for fighting someone with a solid record, but I think the fight is just a confidence builder before he faces some real stiff competition. He's HBO/Oscars' boy, so he's gonna get plenty of chances.

      Minto will get KO'd.

      Only way I see Minto winning is if Areolla is ruined from Vitali. Although, after taking a beating like he did, I wonder if its a bit soon to come back.
      Perhaps thats why his management picked Minto as an opponent.

        Areolla could well be ruined, he looked like a foul beast after Vitali was done with him.

        Plus he was never all that to begin with anyway

          Does anyone know if he is training harder, and slimming down?

          I think he said something about that after losing to klit.

            Ruined or not, he beats Minto. I should retract what I posted earlier.

            I don't even know how Minto was rated in the top 20 at one point.

              Losing was a big reality check for Chris. If he's going to fight again, he's not fighting to take a loss and get paid. Unlike many boxers, he has a lot of pride.

                Minto is tailor made for Arreola. It will be entertaining while it lasts.

                Arreola by brutal KO.
