Comments Thread For: Charles Martin's Options: Arreola, Breazeale and Szpilka

[Tobi.G]

I think all three would be decent opponents for a first title-defence. But Szpilka just got knocked out, its not right that he gets another shot right after a loss even though he is the best of these 3. They are all better than Wilders first two defences.

Arreola keeps getting opportunities for the same reason Guerrero continues to get opportunities. Szpilka looked more impressive getting KTFO than the other 2 in victories. I expect Arreola to get picked since judging from their last fights Arreola looks the most beatable and he has the biggest name.

Three solid opponents. Would be cool if Martin shocked everyone and fought Parker or Joshua, but that might be asking a lot of a first defense.

hahaha that was harsh

Martin wouldn't stand a chance with GGG, Kovalev or Manny Pacquiao.. He is garbage. His win was garbage and I wouldn't doubt it if Wilder wants to fight him next. Garbage.

If Arreola gets another shot at a belt I seriously hope he gets brutally knocked out. I'm so sick of that fat phucker getting opportunities he doesn't deserve and isn't good enough to capitalise on.

Breazeale is probably the most deserving, but I wouldn't have a problem with Szpilka getting it.

Arreola finally has a real shot at a HW belt after all these years. War Arreola!

Nah, Arreola would find some way to phuk it all up, coming into the fight at an all time highest cup size or something. Besides, he's totally shot and can't even take a punch anymore. Martin, as mediocre as he is, would beat this buffoon for sure.

hopefully it won't be long until Anthony Joshua becomes IBF mandatory and then is given his opportunity

It won't be Szpilka. Breazeale or Arreola are alright opponents for a first defence. If it's Arreola I hope he doesn't come in any lighter then 250. He doesn't have the one punch power nor does the lighter weight make him any faster. At least when he's 250-260 he can take punches better & he still has his moments of all out offence. He's aggressive so we could see a spectacular knockout. I don't like Arreola or Chisora coming in under 245-250. It doesn't help them...

If you provide fireworks & are in fan friendly fights you will get a few chances. Golota got 4, mccline got 4, bruno got 4, etc... David Tua was the one guy nobody risked their title on in a voluntary. Arreola is the likely candidate but the cancelled fight against Breazeale could play into martin's choice especially after the Mansour fight...

[dan_cov]

Szpilka? Is that guy even awake yet?
Arreola oh yeah please be Arreola I'll believe him when he says he'll be in shape this time.

Rather see Breazele get it out of that list.
