Klitschko Vs Arreola Betting Odds

World Boxing Council (WBC) heavyweight championship bout between defending champion Vitaly Klitschko (37-2, 36 KO’s) and the unbeaten American contender Chris Arreola (27-0, 24 KO’s) takes place in the early hours of Sunday morning (3am UK time) at the Staples Center, in Los Angeles. It is a fight that many Americans are hoping is the beginning of the end to the eastern dominance in heavyweight boxing. American dreams lay with the determined challenger, Arreola, 28, who says, “It’s going to be a changing of the guard. Very simple. The steel curtain is closed and now I own it.”

However, boxing betting fans are unconvinced, with the Mexican-American’s tough talk, as the money is going in favour of the Ukranian, Klitschko, 38, to still remain champion at the end of the contest.

It is a stinging show of non-commitment by the more experienced boxing betting punters not too get to wound up in the hyperbole emitting from Arreola’s camp. They (Arreola’s camp) claim Klitschko’s too old or he’s not faced a big hitter like Arreola for about 5 years or Arreola’s too hungry to let this moment pass.

Sure enough, Arreola has been working more on his physique, in the run-up to this fight. Toning his chubby frame to match the strength of his punches. And he’s ready to unveil his new look just prior to the fight. As Arreola’s puts it, “I’m a 7/1 underdog.” he said. “At the weigh-in, it’ll probably drop to 3/1, so get your bets in now.”

Klitschko, seems happy enough for Arreola to generate all the pre-fight headlines but adds that although he’s not bothered about generating newspaper column inches, he is readying himself for his toughest test since he came out of retirement, “I have never fought anyone with such a good record as Arreola. I know he’s a good fighter and I am prepared for the hardest fight of my career.”
