    Chris Arreola workout | Fightnews - Boxing News Updated 24/7

    I think he has a chance for 5 rounds. Headhunting is not the answer, maybe if he goes for Vitali's body he could have a better chance. A power punching heavyweight that goes to the body would be a nice change of pace since all I see are head hunters when someone fights them.

    Of course he does. He's in with an old fragile guy.

    Vitaly does not seem too sure about him, I saw a press event and he did not look 100% confident like normal. Maybe Arreola can get Lyle crying into his pillow, I mean he is younger, hungry and confident but I still ain't sold on him just yet. If he wins then it's gonna be interesting for the division

    Arreola is in with the wrong Klitschko. I would favor him against Wladimir but in no way against Vitali. A puncher's chance is slim against Vitali. But I do like the matchup. Its probably Vitali biggest competition.

    Vitali is 38 years old. I also thought he looked sloppy in his last fight. And Vitali can be dragged into a brawl.

    Vitali is the clear favorite, but Arreola definitely has a chance.

    He has a chance but he'll have to work damn hard because Dr Faust is like a wall of bricks. Personally, I don't think he will get through Vitali but he has a lot of talent and an upset isn't impossible.

    I'm not medicated,completely sober and have had plenty of sleep

    I'm picking Arreola to TKO a cut Vitali early and along the ropes ......then again I also thought Manfredo would outbox Bika

    Vitali is older and nobody knows how healthy he is these days, I read recently he had to cut short a public sparring session because he tweaked his achillies. Arreola is going to really have to prove himself if he is to win no matter what kind of shape Vitali comes to fight in. Vitali is a tough s.o.b and Cris will have to take punishment and withstand it to win.....I don't think he's got it in him to beat Vitali. Cris is too easy to hit, to willing to get hit, and although he throws combinations and has been in with some decent competition to prepare for this fight, I just think there's too much lacking in Arreola's game to come away with the win.

    You have to wonder if maybe a top flight trainer would do well for Arreola. I'm not saying Ramirez (?) is bad, but a more experienced trainer could improve on his defense etc.

    I think he has a better punchers chance than anyone else in the entire heavy division to be honest. Lets face it, no one has reall tested the chin of the Klit for a while. I'm gonna say he can catch the Klit cold within 3 if he's lucky otherwise he's gonna get jabbed and jabbed and jabbed and slow down each and every round until he's beat......

    That's totally true. The problem is getting around the jab and that sleep-inducing right hand.

    I wonder if Vlad would back out of his Chambers fight if Arreola pulled off the upset of the century and beat Vitali in order to avenge his brother's defeat.

    I just hope this fight happens and Vitali doesn't have some old injury come up on fight night and it gets canceled lol. Chris has a good chance if he goes for the gusto and takes it to the big man but if tries to make it a thinking mans fight then he goes night night after a long and painful beating.

    I'd say a conditioning coach should be the first step.
    For every story told that divides us, I believe there are a thousand untold that unite us.
