    Wait a sec... these two statements don't match...

    "...if I lose, there’s no more reason for me to be in the sport of boxing...”

    "“It’s a make-or-break night of boxing, it’s win-or-go-home,” acknowledges Arreola. “I’m not prepared to retire no time soon."

    So, he'll quit if he loses, but he isn't ready to quit anytime soon. WTF is that? LOL!!!

    Really dumb to suggest he'll quit. He can still make decent money vs mid-level opponents, for at least another 5 years. Doesn't he have a family to support? What's he gonna do if he retires? Start selling cell phones at Verizon?

      I think it’s lack of the right diet rather than not training hard. It would be impossible for Adam to throw more punches than any heavyweight in a 12 round fight if he didn’t train to many bad carbs

        "If I Lose To Kownacki, No More Reason To Be In The Sport"...until the next phone call about another bout and a paycheck and then rinse and repeat.

        Seen this movie before.

            Chris fought well tonight. No reason to retire IMO. Lost a close fight with a top 10 heavyweight. Most active guys in the division can't even say that.

                They match fine. First statement he is saying that he will retire if he loses, second statement he is saying the same thing, but acknowledging that he isn't ready for retirement. Saying he's going to put it all on the line. And he did.

                  What a fight they had. All action. None of the excessive holding.
