Eddie Chambers stepping up, FINALLY! ...versus Gerald Washington, April 30th

He put himself in Team Fury's hands and they openly admitted having a long-term plan for him that involved a long period of very careful matchmaking before dipping his toes into deep waters again.

 

Oh, this is on that card? When the announcement first came up on Eddie's social media there was still nothing on BoxRec to confirm so I assumed it was the big card in the UK that day.

 

So this will be Chambers' homecoming to American television as well. (although not to American soil, as he knocked out Galen Brown in New Jersey last September, albeit on the main event of a dark card)

His last time on US TV was the one-armed robbery loss to Adamek in Newark on NBC Sports.

 

Poll added.

 

Yeah but is Haymon thinking short-term gain or playing the long game, is the question...

If he burns his bridges with Team Fury and it comes time for making nice at the negotiating table once a unification between Fury and Wilder rolls around (unless Sasha & Wlad can upset the apple cart and set up the ugly rematch nobody wants :yep) ... :think

 

Goral's aggression was horrifically ineffective. Even with the one arm Eddie outscored him easily IMO.

 

...or Sasha will. :hey
