    aren't they both Al Haymon fighters?

      coming off his big win against Mitchell, i think this would be a great scrap...i dont think Arreola is HBO exclusive and could go to Showtime and fight


      for the first time since Haye-Wlad, i'm interested in a HW fight...anyone else like to see this fight?
      it would be a great fight imo. both guys arent afraid to throw power shots. I kinda favor arreola getting wilder out later in the fight if he can survive the first 3 rounds. wilder just doesnt have enough late round experience. I also have a hunch that arreola takes a much better shot. wilder just seems a little vulnerable to me

        i have a feeling Arreola folds Wilder like he did Mitchell...but if Wilder wins, then we have a legit American HW on our hands

          If Wilder has chin issues we will find out.

          Arreola might be a fat slob and very limited but one thing he can do is punch.

            Absolutely.. Arreola always brings fireworks and it would be a proper test for Wilder. Time to step up the comp Deontay!

              I'd like to see it but I don't think Wilder is ready. Wilder should fight a couple of guys outside the top 10 but who are about the 15-40 in the world before thinking about such a step up. Wilder may have had 30 fights but the opposition has been very low.

                Hell yeah. . I wouldn't mind seeing Wilder rolling around the ring like Mitchell did. That was freakin hysterical

                    He's 28 and has 30 fights under his belt. Facing and beating a former title contender is a step in the right direction. If not Arreola, then should face Adamek.

                      I gotta say NO,, maybe in about 18 months, but not now,,, Wilder is still to raw of a product and arreola would do to him like he did mitchell,,, maybe not as quick, but i think chris would ko wilder in about 5 or 6 rounds,,,

                      I would like to see arreola-stiverne rematch for vitali's vacant belt next year

                      And Wilder should continue slowly building up rounds of experience,,
                      Wilder vs:
                      toney
                      rogan
                      price
                      mitchell

                      Fights like those should be the next logical step in wilder's career development
