ARREOLA’S FINAL FIGHT?

Heavyweight boxer Chris "The Nightmare" Arreola debuted in the ring on September 5, 2003.  The result was a second round knockout of Roosevelt Parker.

Arreola would start his career 27-0 before a he was stopped in the 10th round by Vitali Klitschko.  The fight was for a heavyweight title.

Arreola fought unbeaten Adam Kownacki last night at Barclays Center.  The fight turned out to be a heavy hitting action packed fight.  Both fighters came to brawl.  In the end the decision was given to Kownacki.  Kownacki is now 20-0.

Before the fight Arreola had vowed that if he lost he would retire.  In the post fight interview he pretty much said the same thing.  He said he would have to speak to his family, but he sounded like he didn't want to fight anymore.

If that was the last we have seen of Arreola he ends his brilliant career at 38-6-1.  His fans would love to see him keep fighting, but once a fighter has lost the passion he should step away from the sport.
