Tua, even an old Tua, crushes Arreola...

I say Tua would dispose of Arreola quicker than Vitali. Its just a bad clash of styles, where Arreola would end up on the losing side. But I would love to see it.

I think Arreola needs a new trainer...He needs someone who will tell him the truth because from hearing Arreola speak, it's obvious that Arreola actually thinks that he's a better boxer than he really is...
Arreola's skills are as sloppy as his physique and unless someone actually informs him of this and of just how far he is behind the curve when compared to the top fighters, he will get his arse handed to him everytime he fights a top Heavyweight.

It's really sad that Chris won't own up to how totally unprepared he was for the K fight. So nonchalant. It's curious to me that he talks about wanting to take a fight that his fans want to see him fight, but he doesn't acknowledge to what degree he just let them all down a few weeks ago. ....Yeah, Tua will knock him over. I had higher hopes for Chris, but alas.

Does Tua really have anything left in the tank?? He's incredibly one dimensional (since the Ibeabuchi fight). I don't see any way he beats Arreola. Arreola by lopsided UD.

But Arreola has no defense, won't be able to hurt Tua and is also lacking in stamina...I think it would come down to who can hurt who and if Lewis, Ibeabuchi, Rahman, Moorer and Maskaev couldn't even buzz Tua, Arreola wouldn't stand a chance... For me it comes down to resume and who has proven their limited abilities against the best: Tua is 7-3-1 against Top 10 level opposition; Arreola is 0-1... Until Arreola proves he can hang with a Top 10 guy, he's just an ok second tier fighter...King of Club Fighters

Tua throws a punch about 5 times a round. Arreola racks up points with his activity. I'd like to see the fight actually, but I don't think it would be competitive at all.

It would be a fun fight while it lasted...maybe 3 rounds of fun... Tua still has tremendous one-punch power and can take out anyone in the sport (and probably anyone in the history of the sport)...The only detail is that he needs someone who will stand and trade with him...Arreola is by no means a good boxer and while he'll throw more punches, he has no defense and will be taking every shot that Tua throws...and taking them flush...Imagine Tua landing a hook to that gooey body of Arreola? Arreola would go down hard unless he somehow, between now and a Tua fight, develops some sort of jab ala Lennox Lewis or a top-notch defense like Chris Byrd...Otherwise Chris is the Mexican Shane Cameron. If Arreola's people are smart, they will stay clear of such a fight and do some more work in the gym...

Out of the blue corner, representing the old guard of heavyweights, David "the Tua-manator" Tua. I think, even against the limited opponent that was Shane Cameron, Tua exceeded expectations. Cameron didn't look stiff or horrible up to the time he got caught, but he had no way to make Tua pay for leading off with a hook--a Tua hook that's still like a damned baseball bat.
