    Both small quick and skillful heavyweights. Cunningham is doing nicely since his move up to heavyweight, chambers is looking at his worst since he joined the fury camp, i dont know if they training against his style.

    Who do you think wins this one? And do you think it will be a good fight.
    I like them both as fighters. :thumbsup

    I think Cunningham edges Chambers at this point. But it might be close.

    cunningham still hasn't beaten anyone relevant at hw. chambers is shot. just fighting complete bums. the fury influence is shining through. regardless of who would win, neither has any realistic shot of winning a hw title.

    I like Cunningham and at this point would favor him. I thought he could have gotten one of the deciscions against Adamek, he showed heart and skill beating Mansour and was making Fury look terrible for 4 rounds before he got bullied. This would be a good fight but I would rather see him in against someone like Szilpka or Ruiz.

    Easy win for Cunningham. He would be to fast for Chambers slow footwork.

    Current Chambers loses to current USS.
    Wide points decision.

    That would be good. Technically and under the speed department, it would be fantastic.

    Probably Cunningham, but it would be close.

    Very hard to call but on current form would pick Cunningham. Both good guys wouldn't want to see either losing here tbh.

    Cunningham should have gotten the nod against Adamek, and he beat Mansour.... Those are far from nobody's. Proof that Chambers is shot? :think

    Based on recent form I'd say Cunningham wins on points.

    Chambers since joining team Fury hasn't impressed me. His opposition has been terrible, his weight has ballooned up from 196lbs to 221lbs. He looked lazy in his last fight. Cunningham uses his feet and movement and outworks him.

    mansour is over forty. not one credible win to his name. adamek is shot. chambers got annihilated at cw, proves he is shot.

    He lost a decision to one of the best prospects/rising contenders in the division, he wasn't "annihilated" schooled maybe, but not annihilated.....
