Share this story

Heavyweight contender Chris Arreola, who has already fought three times this year, continues his busy 2011 schedule by fighting on the Paul Williams-Erislandy Lara undercard on July 9.

Chris Arreola's express train to another possible title shot will roll again July 9, when the heavyweight contender fights for the fourth time this year in Atlantic City as an undercard attraction on the HBO-televised Paul Williams-Erislandy Lara fight.

Arreola (32-2, 28 knockouts) has posted knockout victories this year against Joey Abell on Jan. 28, Nagy Aguilera on May 14, and Kendrick Releford on May 27. His opponent for the July bout at Boardwalk Hall has not yet been named.

Arreola has fought in two world title bouts, dropping a 10-round technical decision to Vitali Klitschko in 2009 and a 12-round majority decision to Tomasz Adamek last year.
