Vitali Klitschko is 37-2, winning 36 of his wins by knockout.  He lost on cuts to legendary champion Lennox Lewis and had to retire due to shoulder injury early in his career against former champion Chirs Byrd.

Chris Arreola is 27-0 with 24 knockouts.  He has wins over an over-the-hill Jameel McCline (who looked like he was just interested in a paycheck) and previously undefeated Chazz Witherspoon.

I'll keep this simple.  Arreola is a good fighter, but no way he beats a Klitschko especially not the one named Vitali.

Look, I've said it all along.  As soon as Chris Arreola runs into a decent fighter with a good straight punch, he is going down.  Part of that prophecy played out in is win over Travis Walker, but Walker didn't have the tools to get the rest of the job done.

Vitali Klitschko has all the tools and then some... 

Arreola is a good guy.  I actually enjoy him as a person and hope to see him land some more big fights in the future.  He's skillful and has great power, but he is there to be hit and Klitschko will find him early and often.

PREDICTION: Vitali Klitschko is one of the most underrated champions in history.  He holds the record for KO percentage and will be add to it in this fight by knocking out Chris Arreola in 8 rounds.

It is nice to get excited about another heavyweight fight though.  Enjoy the fight!
