Mighty Mike Arnaoutis takes a huge step up against Vivian Harris

[Wacko3205]

Mike Arnaoutis takes a huge step up against Vivian Harris for NABO jr. welterweight championship.

The fights on the same night that Kermit Cintron (26-1, 24 KOs) is on HBO's "Boxing After Dark fighting against Richard Gutierrez (18-0, 11 KOs).

Can't wait...I like Mighty Mike...I'm curious to see how he does against someone like Vicious Viv.

Thoughts?

its definitely a big step up for mighty mike.. hes not bad but hes no world beater IMO. I think Viv outboxes him and gets the decision here, I still think Harris can hang with the top guys in the division as long as he doesnt have any more mental breakdowns (or whatever happened to him) like he did against maussa. It could have just been one bad night, or he could be the next Golota, who knows

Harris has much more to lose than Arnoutis. i personally think that Harris will win a UD. Arnoutis is good but I think because he is a akward southpaw that he gives guys trouble, hes not ackward like Maussa though. i think that he will have early sucess and fade when Harris starts to pick it up. Harris can take a punch well and he has the more polished boxing skill imo.

I don't think it's that big of a step up. Harris has always been overrated

Agreed...he may be a bit overrated...but it is a big step.

Look at who & what Mike has faced in the past.

Harris is a step up in class...no doubt. He's got the most abilities of anyone that MMA has faced to date.

I'm actually pretty excited about this one...I like MMA...he's fun to watch for some reason, IWO.

I'd like to think that it was a bad night...I wouldn't wish that Golota curse on my worst enemy...but I aint that big a Harris fan...so fwockit...let it be so!!!

May he that proclaimith himthelf Vithious become Golotafied!

Agreed. Harris loses to MMA at this stage...he might as well hang it up. Harris IWO does indeed have the advantages over MMA & will probably win...but MMA can crack & a knockout aint out of the question!

I would eat a shat sandwich over a webcam for the whole forum to see if this happened...I wouldn't like it...but it's a small price to pay to see that bitch humiliated again!

I think its interesting, Vivian's a bit of a head case and he's not half as good as he thinks he is but he's definitely accomplished a lot more than Mike. Its definitely a step up for Mike.

Kinda seems like an odd style matchup, both guys like to box and let the other guy come forward. Could be a bit boring

I think it is...I've seen Harris in a few fights..unfortunatly it was against one of my buds "Cold Blood"Michael Clark that he looked really good....so I'm going to go with Harris's boxing over Mighty Mike...

I think Harris might take this one, he seems to be a bit bigger with descent power, I don't think manny was his trainer for nothing. but if Mike wins in convincing fashion he could be in a good position for bigger fights.

[El Gamo]

This Mike guy was calling out Cotto not too long ago but then Malignaggi called him out and he shut his mouth! That's all I know about him,can anyone fill me in? Is he any good,boxer etc?

[aangel]

He seems to be an ok boxer with good power, on the showtime website you can check out his fights with feliciano and the entire Urango fight.

Yep, as much as I like Urango, Aranoutis probably shoulda got the decision in that fight. Only thing I wanna know is, is Emmanuel still training Harris or did he dump him like he did Naz after his first loss?
