    This could be a good fight. 50/50 ? Alot on the line


    Winner will probably fight Klitschko to be Undisputed Heavyweight Champion

    Build-up has been good for this. Arreola's in great shape by his standards.

    No,the winner of this,fights Deontay Wilder,who will then fight Perez or Jennings for the belt.

    Good start to this fight. Both right in front of each other. Arreola wobbled right at the end of the first.

    I'm enjoying this - when was the last time I said that about any heavyweight fight? Good action, though Stiverne looks the better boxer, who's just biding his time. Better make sure he doesn't get outworked while he's waiting.

    I can't believe Don King has a heavyweight champion again.

    Anyone think Stiverne could trouble Wlad?

    This is first champ since Shannon Briggs?

    He wont let Stiverne near Klitschko.

    No. Too short. Not aggressive enough. He could land a lucky KO shot, but that applies to any decent heavy handed HW. Wlad boxes the ears off him all night.

    He has demonstrated sufficient power to take out Wlad, but I couldn't really see him landing one clean enough. Stiverne goes through spells of inactivity during rounds & his guard is shockingly low. He is also fairly muscular which might cause him to fatigue easily. I reckon a bout with Wlad would be similar to Vitali vs Haye, the only difference being Wlad getting the stoppage within 10 rounds.

    Stiverne saying he has an optional defense next and would then rather a unification bout with Klitscho. The unification bout would supersede Wilder's right to a title shot by all accounts

    Probably should take on Wilder first, ride that hype into the Wlad match up... he'd have a big defence and the belt to negotiate with...
