I like sam peter, although i think he has retired yet, he was never world class but was a good contendor and a worthy 1/4 of a champion i tihnk, when he was in his version of good condition and on a good run he was a dangerous fellow !
Most boxers aren't rocket scientists (no offense to what they do but there's a reason they box instead of have desk jobs), Arreola will make a better living for himself in the ring rather than outside it. Now he's only in his 30's he has a few fights left in him where he can earn good win or lose. I think he could challenge a Tyson Fury, I think a rematch vs Stiverne is close if his nose doesn't break, I think Arreola is a good fighter with a contender set of skills...he's not a champion, we know that much at this point. But there's money to be made and he might get another title shot, but he has to turn things around for himself.

Now someone like Audley Harrison, yeah he needs to go because he's not even competing he's just falling down.
