By Luis Sandoval - For the second time in a month’s span, a Heavyweight bout hosted at the Fantasy Springs Casino ended in the very first round as Chris Arreola (35-3, 31KOs) put himself back in the win column with a quick and vicious victory over Seth Mitchell (26-2-1, 19KOs). It only took 2 minutes and 26 seconds for Arreola to make good on his promise that he would knock Mitchell out as he has now positioned himself to land a big fight again.
In the week leading up to the bout, both fighters had said their contest would not go the distance and would end early. They were both correct but it was Arreola who inflicted the damaging blows while Mitchell was the one on the receiving end.
Ironically it was Mitchell who would strike first in the fight as he hit Arreola with a quick one-two punch in the opening seconds. Arreola brushed off the combination and began hounding Mitchell around the ring looking to land his own attack. The first right hand Arreola threw that connected immediately discombobulated Mitchell as his legs turned to jelly and he held on for dear life.
Arreola did his best to try to free himself from the clinch and continue his attack but Mitchell held on tight as Arreola would throw Mitchell to the floor to finally free himself. It wasn’t a knockdown by any means but it wouldn’t be the last time Mitchell would end up on the canvas. [Click Here To Read More]
