Who didn't expect this?
Some guys get by because of there natural abilities or experience but slack off in preparations for an event, which fits Arreola to a tee. I hope he sees now that when you put in the time, you will usually turn out fine.

Originally posted by robust_ View PostI think that's a bit of an exaggeration of Wilder's power. Doesn't Wilder have a questionable chin? I think it would be an exciting and short fight.
6 foot-3 inches, 76 inch reach
Wilder
6 foot-7 inches, 84 inch reach
Vitali
6 foot-7, 79 inch reach
I'm not saying that Wilder doesn't have a suspect chin but look at his (Arreola's) fight with Vitali...he would be facing an even bigger man, with a TON of power who has an 8 inch reach advantage. Not to mention has improved over his last couple of fights...it's just going to be VERY hard for him to get on the inside and that leverage is nothing to ignore. Anything is possible but Wilder has a lot of advantages on his side.
As to the power issue....I mean he has fought some "cans" but 29-0, 29 KO's...I'm not seeing too much exaggeration there honestly.Last edited by mathed; 09-07-2013, 11:14 PM.

arreola has an amazing chin. i wouldn't expect him to go down as easily as the rest of the wilder opponents.

Originally posted by mathed View PostSadly, I though Arreola woul dwin a UD. Figured Mitchell would go down at some point but survive the distance....Arreola came prepared and did what he had to do. I was a big supporter of him like 2 years ago but his laziness had me feeling like he was a lost cause.....this Arreola is what I expected him to be. I know Mitchell is an iffy opponent but I thin Arreola now sees and has had the benefit of learning from hard work.
