Thread: Cris 'The Nightmare' Arreola vs Bermane 'B.Ware' Stiverne

So this WBC Title eliminator looks like it is going to happen as soon as Arreola gets cleared by the doctors (so says fightnews.com).

TALE OF THE TAPE

Height: Arreola 6'3, Stiverne 6'2
Weight:(last fight) Arreola 245, Stiverne 243
Reach: Arreola 76", Stiverne 80"


Well guys THIS is a heavyweight matchup that could be a barn burner. 2 guys looking for a shot at a major title. Both big punchers, both not known for defense, it should be a hell of a match and I hope to God somebody somewhere decides its a great fight to put on TV because these two fellas will both be aiming for a KO.

who ya got?

What do we know about Bermaine's chin? I saw on boxrec he was knocked out by an 11-15 fighter. I lean Arreola because of the level of competition. I agree, however, that this should be a good fight on paper. When is Arreola not in a good fight?

The guy Stiverne lost to is a big puncher so I'm not certain we can read much into that. Arreola has been hurt in a couple of his fights as well. I think Arreola is the better boxer, but I am leaning towards Stiverne to win.

Come on chris come over here and fight tyson fury
Or fight Kevin johnson

I'm backing chris the two times I've seen stiverne I wasn't impressed at all, granted not much to go by. arreola got experience on his side and he's been in with the far better competition...stivernes best win is squeaking out a ko in a close fight with an old ray austin, not impressive.

If only today's HW's were as good as their nicknames....




(Is this Stiverne guy even ranked?)

Yes Stiverne is ranked! He has a solid record and is a devistating power puncher.

To all those who know about Tyson Fury how good would you consider him to be?

Tyson Fury? From what little I have seen he is an underwhelming and fairly mediocre prospect.
