What's next for Arreola?

[ykdadamaja]

Perhaps Arreola fighting to get down in weight did himself no favours... he was zapped of energy and lost some of his power. What if it's good for him to be a fatty fat- some guys are like that.

I think if he had not broken his nose he could have finished that fight strong.... that and the issue he looked too weak from the onset. You could see Arreola had no power to hit anyone with anything that night.

Arreola may serve himself some good with plastic surgery to remove some of that loose skin/flab- that makes him look more out of shape than he probably is.

Arreola went the distance with a broken nose with a live fighter with power...

Arreola's biggest problem is that he has never had a plan B he's the heavyweight Kelly Pavlik. I always thought maybe he could have given Wlad some competition due to his chin and his determination, but now it would just be sad...Wladimir would hammer the bejesus out of Arreola.

If Arreola wants to make a comeback a crossroads fight vs Abdusalamov would put the wheels in motion. Abdusalamov rightly or wrongly has a lot of attention focused on him and if Arreola was to halt Abdusalamov like I know anyone with a good punch can then he's right back where he was before losing to Stiverne, he's 1 more fight away from a title shot.

If Arreola can't make a change in the way he fights, I'm sure he has reached his final level.
I've always liked him but never had any real belief that he would become a champion.
Stranger things have happened, so I guess Arreola could change his natural inclination to slug it out, but I just can't see that happening.
We'll find out, eventually.

I'd go along with Arreola beating Fury, I'd also go along with him clubbing David Haye to defeat too. I'd consider either of them beating him a really solid win.

I like Arreola, he comes to fight. Given that he's a prize fighter that might not seem like a stand out quality but given some of the shit we've seen masquerading as 'fighters' he'll do for me.

Also we seem to more and more be jumping on this band wagon that says you're either Champ or you're nothing and you've no business in the sport. Its not that black and white and there's a large grey area that guys like Arreola can fill.

To say he has no heart is madness.

I agree, and having guys with tons of heart will only make the division better. It's certainly better than all these guys that sit back and run all fight.

Even before the nose, I thought he was much slower than in his last full fight. He wasn't beating Stiverne to the punch and I could just feel him slipping away as if he wanted to fight a uphill battle. I don't follow him much but he seemed like a different fighter. The last fight I saw him in was also a full fight but he used that jab often.
