I still think your bet was worth a shot Romi, there were moments that Klit looked like he might be slowing down. Plus there were lots of gym rumors that Vitali was struggling and old injuries were nagging him again.
Big props to Arreola, I even became a fan on his on facebook just to give him props and encourage him lol. I respect his emotional opennes, I remember crying after a beating I took in the ring, part of the experience is the bond that develops between the guys in the ring. If you notice, Arreola gathered himself but then lost composure and started crying again after he and Vitali exchanged words. It can be a pretty emotional experience.
I agree, his honesty is incredible and makes him a thrill to watch, and a nice guy to boot.
