    I'm no defender of Arum but he is right in critisizing the condition of Arreola and McCline. They were like whales marooned on a beach. Ugly stuff.

    The Wright: Williams fight was a good one though so he should keep quiet about that. I don't know why anybody wouldn't want to watch it.

    Miles - it may have been ugly, but do you prefer watching Klitschko v. Ibragimov or Valuev v. Holyfield or Chambers v. Peters? I don't.

    Forget pound-for-pound -- These guys are the most exciting - ESPN - Arreola listed as one of the most exciting fighters to watch (the only heavyweight on the list).

    Arreola is more interesting to watch than most of them others, for sure. My gripe is just that he looked so out of condition. He could be better with a bit of a trim off the waistline. All that wobbly stuff is worrying. Otherwise, he does throw punches and comes to fight, so not all bad. Just the weight issues for me.

    Agreed Wright/Williams was a quality bout between two top quality fighters, nothing to criticize,

    As for Arreola not much you can do about that but I cant give Chris too much credit for beating McCline, look at the shape Jameel was in, self admited he was retired and they offered him a decent payday that had a big reward and little risk
