Is Arreola at age 35 the worst HW world title opponent ever?

I never get tired of that pic. Yeah, Harrison is probably the only one in recent memory who's comparable.

Fair play to him he's got a Gold medal and he made a few quid but what kind of boxer would even look like that in the ring?

He looks like victim number five in a cheap slasher movie.

Charles Martin is worse.

Boxers can pull some pretty weird poses in the middle of a fight, but somehow I genuinely believe Audley was that terrified when that pic was taken.

Martin beat Glazkov for the title, so I'm not sure how he qualifies. Not that Glazkov was all that, but he was a ranked top ten fighter at the time he fought, and better than anyone that Arreola ever beat in his entire career.

yeah suppose but glazkov did injure himself. Could be a case of joshua being really good but my god did martin look bad lol. Arreola is a fat disgrace and one of the worst contenders going, but think pianata, mormeck, fraudley, martin are worse. Dont think breazele is far off that lot either, just a big tough lump who can take a beating.

Who's Arreola beat that's comparable to Glazkov?

As bizarre as it sounds do think fraudley was a pretty good boxer. Just seemed to get real stagefright against the top guys and freeze up, seemed genuinely scared to be in there. Can imagine him being the type of fighter who looks amazing in sparring. I know prizefighter is a ****e standard but he was so much better than the guys on there, and another level skill wise, is why they give him the shot against haye.

The former lineal heavyweight champion, Wladimir Klitschko, defended the actual lineal title (not some WBC alphabet trinket) against the likes of Alex Leapai, Francesco Pianeta, and Jean Marc Mormeck.

Your trying to hard..... No way is Harrison comparable with arreola, Harrison has a super glass chin and fought scared when moved up in competition, Areola allways comes to fight win or loose!!! Gives it his all.

Martin got a huge does of luck in that fight, but he was still winning quite handily at the time of the stoppage. In fact, Glazkov's inability to close distance against the longer Martin might have played a part in him hyperextending his knee joint when he lunged in. Martin obviously isn't a great fighter, but he might still be a good one; between the bums he fought and the Joshua fight there really isn't much to go on. I suspect, based on the way he was handling Glazkov, that he's a level above Arreola skill wise, and would most likely beat him on points if they were to fight tomorrow.

Pianeta is pretty mediocre, but he was at least ranked when Wlad fought him, and holds a win against Duhaupas for what it's worth.

Mormeck was a hell of a cruiser, but very faded and undersized against Wlad. A huge mismatch, and potentially comparable. I'd say Arreola is even more undeserving though. Mormeck was at least coming off a couple of wins when they fought, and hadn't just been busted for drugs.

Breazeale is undeserving, but he'd just beaten Mansour in his last fight. That puts him above a disputed win turned NC against Travis Kauffman.

The only time Arreola would have been a somewhat worthy challenger would have been directly after the Seth Mitchell fight. Even then he wouldn't have been significantly better than the likes of Martin, Breazeale and co. Now he's a fat, washed up druggie on a losing streak. Hard to really find anyone less deserving.
