    Comments Thread For: Chris Arreola Will Discuss Future, Retirement With Family, Team

    Heavyweight contender Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola (38-6-1, 33 KOs) has yet to make a decision regarding his future in the sport. On Saturday night at the Barclays Center in Brooklyn, he lost a hard-fought twelve round unanimous decision to undefeated rising star Adam Kownacki (20-0, 15 KOs).

    He can't beat the top heavyweights anymore.

    But he might be able to make decent money for a few more years being a gatekeeper. If that's something that interests him.

      He never could. Wasn't even competitive when he tried.

      He was more in love with buffet lines.

        I think Chris gave a real feel good performance last night. Nothing left to prove. He even said he couldn't do that/go through that again. Might be a loss on the cards but I think it's a win for everyone and a good way to go out while he's still healthy.

          While watching him fight against Kownacki, I thought that it was some of best of Arreola that I had seen in awhile. He let his hands go, moved pretty decent and his cardio was better than previous fights. Fught through a broken hand I thought he won his share of rounds.

                Wish him nothing but the best whatever he decides. What I’d call a true and honest prizefighter, always come to rumble.

                  When a man who loves to scrap and get hit says it's time to retire he will. Good guy. Too bad he wasn't as well conditioned for his fights on HBO like he was for this last one. His body changed prior to the Stiverne fight. I can only speculate but he looks like he had that weight loss surgery. He lost size and muscle but kept the fat just like most of those people do.
