After more than two years of inactivity,  Chris Arreola will return the ring on December 1 at the Staples Center in Los Angeles, on the undercard of Deontay Wilder vs. Tyson Fury.

In July 2016, Arreola was knocked out in eight rounds by Deontay Wilder, with the WBC heavyweight title on the line.

Henry Ramírez, coach and manager of Arreola commented: “Chris will have a fight to test the ground on which he`s standing. He`s  been some long time outside the ring and we will see in what conditions he returns. Chris has been in the gym for some weeks and I like what I see,  but we need to observe what he is capable of doing in the ring.”
