    Chambers is fighting Alexander Dimitrenko a MUCH better boxer than Kevin Johnson.

    Yet Chambers has a better resume than both Johnson and Arreola.

    Chambers beat Rossey, Guinn, Brock, and Peter, who has Johnson and Arreola beat?

    Johnson's jab reminds me of Larry Holmes' jab but he definitely lacks heart. He fights scared and is afraid to mix it up.

    You're crazy because Johnson does not have Ibeacbuchi's power and Chambers hits harder than Byrd. Chambers would outbox Johnson and possibly knock him out. Chambers is simply the better boxer and has the better jab.

    How would it be easy for Johnson when Chambers would win? Johnson is not even on Chambers level, Chambers is fighting Alexander Dimitrenko a much better boxer than Johnson.

    resume doens't mean ****.

    I don't think much of Chambers as a fighter. and he sure as **** isn't stopping Johnson.

    Johnson could keep him at range and win with his jab.

    Johnson hasn't fought anyone in the caliber Guinn or Brock and Chambers beat both, so how does resume not mean crap? He beat former champ Samuel Peter too. Chambers is a much more skilled boxer than Johnson and has the intangibles to be great, while Johnson isn't.

    SAm Peter was worthless in that fight. H2H Johnson is better. I'm just going by what I see.

    H2H Johnson would be easier than the Guinn fight. Chambers would make him look silly by constantly blocking, countering, and jabbing him to death.

    IB, have been away from the boxing scene (except for Pac stopping Hatton) for a few months. I saw this fight. Never heard of Vargas - who has faught nobodies and still has a low KO%.
    You've followed KJ more than me. Kingpin looked good stopping a smaller, untested HW. Not trying to wind you up, but what did KJ prove tonite? Let's see him get a few wins vs legit top 10 HWs.

    Not sure about KJ vs CA. Why are you so confident he beats CA? I have to read up on CA's win vs McCline.

    Decker, he's not a world beater as of yet, and may never be...but he's quickly emerging (as I predicted) as the class of the young American heavyweights. I say he beats Arreola because the latter has shown, by contrast, virtually no progress and has vulnerabilities just begging to be exploited.

    I didn't see the fight, but, I know Kingpin is a lazy fighter at best in the ring. The Klitschkos, or any other top contenders would beat him easily. Let's just say he's padding his record as we speak.
