Comments Thread For: Weights From LA Stiverne 239.5 Lb., Arreola 239 Lb.

[Earl-Hickey]

239 is still fat for areola he has small frame and should be around 220. Stiverne is in good shape he's a lot bigger naturally

[Weltschmerz]

Good. This will be a good HW scrap, a lot at stake for these 2 guys. This will be good.

Yes, I don't understand why people don't see this. Sterols doesn't have very broad shoulders and his legs aren't very beefy. He should be at 220 max. Also Ramirez does nothing for his guys. He should've gotten a better trainer a long time ago. He dives in when he punches. Instead of getting leverage and torque he puts his weight behind his punches and pushes them out. He has good pop and throws good combinations. It's a shame no one ever taught him how to use his ability in th ring.

He would lose too much power.

Mexicans donīt have big muscles, defined muscles, fast-twich fibers, athleticism. What we do have ( as most Latinos ), is heart, good chins and power. Check for example Zarate a boxer from the 70s, so skinny he made Pewee Herman look like a bodybuilder yet look at his record and KO percentage ( look at Floyds). Check the late Edwin Valero, skinny but....

nice nice, I rather seen arreola at 232 low 230;s but 239 not bad.

Interesting is they both way almost the exact same difference then the first fight.

First fight weight.
Arreola - 248
Stirvene - 247

This Fight
Arreola - 239
Stirvene - 239.5

Difference
Arreola - 9
Stirvene - 7.5

You have it flipped. Stiverne was 248 last time. Actually lost more for this one.

[crold1]

lol no doubt how much did he end up losing as compared to the last weigh in

Less than Stiverne. Both guys put in work. Arreola's narrative just distracts from what the scale actually says.

[Sheppirino]

I hope Arreola wins so history can be made in the heavyweight division.

Everyone has both slow- and fast-twitch fibers, some people just have a higher percentage of one or the other. Neither is a distinct advantage in a cardiovascular sport like boxing since fast-twitch fibers exhaust very quickly.

neither guy has the body type to be chiseled like a wladimr or david haye but they both seem to be in good fight shape. should be a great fight. cant wait for this. history in the making
