    Uh, sorry I don't share your preference for watching only buff men with their shirts off.

    arreola is horrible but he could still probably drink 5 or 6 pacificos in the dressing room and then knock out the shell of maskaev.

    I'm surprised this moron baldelli isn't picking maskaev, considering his claim that baby joe mesi could defeat arreola if they fought today.

    anyone on the arreola blandwagon deserves ridicule
    anyone

    I'm not on his bandwagon. And he remains unproven. But it's pretty silly to hate on him because of how he looks. Boxing isn't a body-building competition.

    Are intentionally using that phrase to be obtuse?

    Or is that what you call what Eddie Chambers did to lose 15 pounds?

    I just hope there's a way to preserve the pot, but carve off other accesories, if he's ripped and shiny around the nipples and legs, but retains a porch, what's the harm?.. :dunno: ... you dont see fat fighters rolling around squealing on the canvas that often.

    Obtuse? Check your dictionary dude. I can't figure out how that word could possibly make sense in the context you've used it. In other words, I don't know WTF you are talking about. :lol:

    It means nobody's asking Arreola, or any other boxer, to be a body-builder.

    Trimming off fat isn't body-building.

    Are you trying to avoid addressing simple "conditioning"?

    Exactly. There is a difference between being "in shape" and being "a bodybuilder" which apparently is lost on Double L.

    Okay. Forget the body-building. What if he isn't in top shape? But he keeps knocking guys out. Will you still hate him then?

    Chances are his lack of conditioning will be his down-fall if nothing else as he moves up the ranks, and so you can reasonably have low expectations for the guy.

    But I don't think his conditioning and/or physique, apart from what he does in the ring, should mean a damn thing. And you guys are making an issue out of it before it's even become one in his career.

    I think you guys just like to look at chiseled bodies. To each his own. But if Aereola knocks guys out on the way to winning a title, I'm not so sure his lack of conditioning should be held against him.

    You mean keeps knocking out guys nearing 40?

    Hell, at 37, Vitali's a pugilistic young'un compared to McCline and Maskaev...not to mention a hell of a lot better.

    Maskaev might just KO Arreola. He's got better technique than Arreola for sure. He's just so old.

    I don't give a rat's ass about "chiseled bodies". And I DO think his blobbishness should be held aganist him. It shows a lack of committment to his chosen career. And anything that reminds me of the fat and underachieving 80's crop of heavy contenders is a bad thing.

    It is just so hard to take a guy who looks like that seriously. Obviously he lacks the dedication, motivation and discipline to be in the best shape he can be in.

    Nobody says the dude needs to look like Mike Weaver...just get your ass into shape for cryin out loud.

    agREED...

    As REED & Others have Said MANY Times, Larry Holmes & Riddick Bowe NEVER Resembled "Body Builders", but @ their PEAKS, they WERE In-Shape...Shit, Joe Frazier NEVER had a "Body Builders" Physique Either, but Until the Post-Foreman Days, he was ALWAYS IN SHAPE....

    NOBODY is Saying that Arreola has to Look like Wlad Klit, but CLEARLY, Arreola Can B in BETTER Condition...

    Updates

    Here is what I received a couple of weeks back from my contact that knows Arreola:

    I haven't yet witnessed it in person, but I have it on good authority that CHRIS ARREOLA has really "knuckled down" and is working hard with his newly-hired Nutritionist / Cardio-Vascular Exercise guru. Next time he goes in the ring, he will weigh considerably less than the 255 he carried into recent bouts.
    Negotiations are still ongoing for a title shot vs. Vitali Klitschko at the Staples Center in L.A. in September or October.

    Chris is expected back in the boxing gym to begin sparring and specialized bag work in the next two or three weeks.

    this guy would have struggled to be a journeyman back in the day..actually i would have put him at club level back in the day...there are ZERO heavyweights out there...even the klit brothers are no good...except for Vitali but he is old now

    if he comes in over 220 he will still be to fat.
