Big props to Cris Arreola

[DaxxKahn]

I figured he would have been out MUCH sooner, but apparently the working out and the preparations helped Cris a bit, he seemed to be in good shape stamina-wise (still a bit flabby) but aside from getting hit so much I think he gave a great account of himself.

Hopefully this makes Cris train harder and maybe we could see an Arreola-Peter fight!

Agreed I thought he was going to go sooner but like you said he seemed prepared.

I though Chris looked the best physique wis that I can remember another 15lbs and he would actual;ly look decent for a HW.

He showed heart I just hope he did not leave his best in the ring in the result of a beating.

I am an Arreola fan now based on his effort alone, he is no push over and with a bit of work has a future

Same here Daxx, I'm sure he has earned a lot of fans from his effort last night. I hope he fights Haye in the near future (should he dispose of the hairy one), perfect match up in my mind.

I would like to see Haye Vs Arreola myself, I pick Chris to win by KO.

I completely agree. That is an exciting fight in the heavyweight division. Hopefully, despite his losing effort, Arreola made more fans on Saturday night.

As good as a performance as you will get from someone with arreloa`s limited talent.

Genuinely gave it his absoloute all and you just couldnt help but feel sorry for him in the end as he genuinely had just hit a dead end and couldnt find a way past vitalis left jab.

Didnt like the interview at the end as even in the heat of the moment its very unprofessional. But all in all arreola earned a lot of fans from saturday night and i for one would now happily go out of my way to see him fight again!!

Arreola needs to add boxing skills big time. He is tough and can take punishment. But he needs to get tough in the skill game.

Cris needs to study the style of short and successful fighters like Tyson and Joe Frazier. They had what Cris need to learn and do if he wants to have any success in this sport. They had bobbing and weaving, side to side head movement, and they mastered the hook to the body and left and right hook to the head. Cris did none of that against Vitaly, he does not have that arsenal, he needs to learns them fast.

Get a new trainer to teach those skills, Cris. You boyhood friend is not a top level trainer. Get the trainers that trained Tyson or know the style of Frazier.

Tyson and Frazier would have KO'd Klitschko in less than 5 rounds.
