I was pleasantly suprised by that fight - a real slugfest. Arreola obviously became gun shy after being nailed in those early-middle rounds. Stiverne can ****. Good fight.Comment

Not so sure about that. Stiverne is a better boxer than Wilder and also has punching power. Arreola got dropped in the third round but has a granite chin which saved him. Wilder has punching power and can probably drop anyone if his right hand lands but he seriously lacks technical skills.

Arreola has the tools to win and be competitive, but all the talk of taking his career seriously and losing weight ended up as just that; all talk. Dude weighed basically what he did when he said that he had to lose weight to compete at a world level.
Makes me think of a quote by another limited but powerful fighter.
"That's where your roadwork shows. If you cheated on that in the dark of the morning, well, you're going to get found out now, under the bright lights.” - Joe FrazierComment
