    Also on that "2 days in the life of a fighter" business on HBO, Mitchell's manager admitted that Seth isn't passionate about boxing, but sees it as a means to an end for supporting his family.

    Seth seems a nice guy, aggressive, athletic and getting better so best of luck to him, but I honestly do not see him ever troubling a Klitschko.

    I like to watch Seth fight and root for him. But that is a damning statement, considering this is a sport that requires passion in order to be able to overcome the adversities that will always surface at one time or another.
    Yes, it is an incriminating statement for sure. There are cases of guys who didn't love boxing really thriving though, like Ken Norton. It was often said that he never loved boxing, but he had a hall of fame career.

    There are exceptions to the rule, but generally if you don't love boxing, then you are going to get hurt sooner or later and call it quits.


    I always disliked Norton's style of fighting. He was so-o-o awkward. But he did have his day in the sun, particularly in his first fight with Ali in 1973. I like watching Seth fight, though. And I root for him to succeed. But yeah... if he's not passionate about boxing, it might catch up to him sooner or later.
    I say lets put all our eggs in one basket and support Seth to be the saviour of the US heavyweight division.

    Count me in. Especially since Chris "Crybaby" Arreola hasn't quite been up to the task.
    Hahahaha you're a moron, Arroela smashes both of these guys. Banks would last longer but he wouldnt go 12 with a focused Arreola.
    The key is Self-discipline.

    Why do you feel the need to preface Arreola with the word "focused".
    Must know something I don't.




    Seriously, I could've bet money you'd crawl out from under your rock to stick up for your local fighter. As predictable as you are stupid. Were you upset when Arreola was bawling like a baby in the ring after losing to Klitschko? I mean... that WAS kind of embarassing.

    Not really, Im not particularly a Arroela fan but I do think he blows away the two heavyweights that fought on Saturday. Do you give either of those two an honest shot at beating Arreola?

    Arreola's tough and can bang. But so can Seth. Arreola's got the experience edge, if you will. But I personally don't think it's a foregone conclusion that he'd beat Mitchell. I will tell you one thing. I expected a bit more from Arreola when he fought Vitali. He was being brought up to be the "next great hope" and he's just slinked back into the shadows of the Klitschkos. He's peaked, while someone like Mitchell is still on the rise. It would be interesting.

    Seth Mitchell just got hammered out in 2 rounds by a former cruiserweight. I'm not going to tell you he's a crap fighter but he ain't "on the rise" anymore. If any American fighter can beat Arreola I say it's probably still Eddie Chambers because the guy uses defense properly and never plans on getting a KO. Banks is better than we thought, Mitchell is not who we thought he was and at his age it's going to be hard to rebound from that loss. Arreola is a seasoned pro and guys like Wilder and Hanks aren't ready for him yet...perhaps Franklin Lawrence would have an outside shot at him but hell you never know.

    I still say Banks vs Adamek II is a GREAT fight to make right now

    Bermaine Stiverne is pretty seasoned too. The fight between Stiverne and Arreola is intriguing. If Arreola beats him, I would like to see him face Helenius, Fury, or Price.

    Oh yeah, that's a great matchup. On paper it could really be a barn burner, fight of the year candidate, but given the fact that it's 2 heavyweights and 2 heavyweights who can be heavy or not box well on occasion I'm trying not to over sell it but it SHOULD be a very solid matchup and one that I want to see.

    Fine then don't watch it. Some people like the heavyweight division some people don't but what I can't stand is your endless bitching about it which you being the dumb little bastard you are will no doubt take pride in but you go right ahead flaunt your stupidity nothing has stopped you so far.
