NEWS:Klitschko to face Arreola?

[Rantcatrat]

Besides Povetchkin who else is out there? Haye is set to fight Vitali in the summer so no way are Wlad and David going to fight before that. Gomez and Klitschko are fighting, and there is nobody right now really at the hype of Arreola that Wlad hasn't beaten except Povetchkin.

Im sure Toney could generate more interest and money than Arreola.

Recently, Toney has been as lackluster as any heavyweight. I thought he lost his last fight. Haye would be more interesting, but he is fighting Vitali. Povetkin is out indefinitely because of an injury. Arreola is ranked in the ring magazine top ten and has successfully knocked out each of his last 6 opponents before round 4, and his last three opponents have a combined record of 70-2-1. There is a dearth of quality heavyweights, but Arreola is as good of a fight as any right now. Mexicans in southern California will come out in droves if the fight is staged at the Staples Center in Los Angeles.

That said, Klitschko beats Arreola in six rounds, although Arreola won't run like Ibragimov and the fight may be interesting if only for a little while.

I know what you are saying, but Toney needs his shot and its coming notime sooner against anybody else. And he is old already.

Toney is a name and if he has his chance and if he blows it then its done. But at least he did try.

Right now I dont know what Toneys strategy is but it doesnt seem to be a plan on retiring any time soon. It should be though. There wont be that many chances hereafter.

Fair enough. I thought I read somewhere that Emmanual Steward said he would never let Klitschko get in a ring with Toney. Is that true? I may be imagining it.

I think Arreola needs a couple more fights before he takes this one. He really needs to get in better shape and tighten up is D or else Wlad is going to school him just like Vitali did to Peters.
