If he loses, well I wouldn't consider him useless based on that. That's the problem today. Guys like Carl Williams and Joe Walcott were considered great fighters yet had not just bad records.. They had BUM records.

But today if a guy loses a few fights at top level mind you, he's considered done or "exposed". Funny nobody got "exposed" back in the day. Sometimes a guy only has to lose just 1 fight and he's a bum! HA! I can only imagine what'll be said of Wilder when he loses his first fight!

But anyway, I think Arreola is going to win. And I don't understand why because not only is he American, but he is definitely the most exciting prospect going around, he has great character, humour and entertainment value and produces violent old school smack fests..

Isn't that what you want in the HW division? I thought Arreola embodies everything that you want the HW division to be. Rough, tough and powerful and courageous! Not boring, technical boxing skills.

You can't have it both ways unless there's another Lennox Lewis around the corner or something.
Dont know who considers Williams a great fighter?

Wlacott was THE heavyweight champion! Something Arreola never will be.

This is a very elaborate wind up
