It is true that I don't really enjoy the heavyweight division all that much anymore because of all the wobbly tummies and lacklustre fighters.

Arreola is a much bigger man and if he lands will cause some issues, but if Adamek is able to fight smart and take advantage of Arreola's obvious flaws I think he can win. Adamek is the better fighter, it's the size difference that he's up against more than anything. Nothing worse than a sweaty man boob leaning onto your face. It's enough to put any fighter off their game!

I'm up for a little flutter providing the fight comes off.
I agree that the heavyweight division is lacking these days even though I disagree with your feelings on Arreola although I concede you are not alone. I'm not comparing the skills of Arreola to the skills of Toney. Far from it. Arreola is a big guy with decent skills. Arreola effectively throws combinations, which is rare for a heavyweight, and has a solid chin. He has heart and unlike the Klitschkos, makes for exciting fights. His fight with Minto was more fun to watch than any Klitschko fight of the last three years. He needs to win once more and then fight a Povetkin, Chambers, or Haye type of opponent.
