Comments Thread For: Wilder Drops, Stops Arreola; Calls For All The Belts

Arreola did some good work in the 3 round.Wilder was in control from start to finish.I'd like to see him fight a Fury Joshua Ortiz next

Agree with everything. Chris landed some nice shots but he was too timid. And his face just gets ****ed up too easily. But he's a tough mofo. Not a great heavyweight, but a good contender.

When is Wilder gonna fight a live body.These randoms,no names and fat slobs is a joke.I'm calling for a real fight.

I bet he fights Holyfield next...that would be a step up in competition.

ME! Yes it's pretty good! Already a knockdown but both guys are brawling and throwing big shots. Not gonna go 10 rounds at this pace.

Wonder if something is wrong with Wilders right hand.

Disappeared the last 2 rnds.

You called it man, broken hand and turn bicep. I thought Wilder did OK, but after finding that out it was a pretty impressive performance

Povetkin's a much, much better version of a prime Arreola. Whatevs about the roids because everybody, INCLUDING WILDER, is on them. I got Povetkin over Wilder easy if they ever fight.

Idk if there is anyone out there like this, but if Wilder fights a top 10 or top 5 guy who is built like Tyson and throws short, powerful bombs and moves his head well, he will get knocked out. A guy 50% of Tyson will obliterate him.

I agree. I mean he's improving and he had a couple of good moments with quick combinations and even changing angles at the short range at the end of the fight, but far away from being constant. It's like 10% of every round he shows that he's capable of doing some great moves, while the rest of it he's doing some ****** things. I started watching the fight from the 3rd round thanks to a bad streaming, and unlike others I don't think his jab was good, in fact many times I thought about how he can get easily countered with it. He maybe showed some ring IQ improvement, meaning he learned he'll need to use it to keep his opponent away but I wasn't that impressed with his jab itself from a technical standpoint. And even than I still think he should have used it even more, every round he allowed Areola a lot of times to just simply walk in straight and put his head on Wilder's chest.

But what frustrated me from Areola, and this also goes for Stiverne, is that they never used feints against Wilder, while he seems to me as a sucker for feints. The only time I actually saw Areola using it, it looked great as he provoked Wilder to react and panic, after what Areola was able to come in and hit him with a couple of shots. Areola and Stiverne also just walked slowly towards Wilder, that even a slug would have enough time to stop them on their way in or safely move away. Chris at least tried to use a bit of head movement from time to time but it looked bad.

EDIT:
I'm not sure if I remember well, but Spizilka gave him hell with his headmovement and feints.
