    Eddie takes the first four rounds, Haye takes the next 8 and probably knocks Eddie down along the way. Eddie has stamina and workrate issues...if HW fights were all 8 rounders, Eddie would probably be an ATG.

    yea i can't see him staying busy for the full 12.
    I agree that he will take a few of the early rounds but drain down later on.
    I don't see either mans power posing threats to each other as chambers isn't a big puncher,but is slick enough to shield off some of hayes power ud haye
    What i would love to see is haye- arreola and i think it would be an even matchup while it lasted

    Haye would stop him as soon as Eddie goes into his shell
    What Haye did to Mormeck at Cruiserweight is what would happen to Chambers at Heavyweight.When Mormecks workrate was slowing Haye stepped in and start tagging the frenchman wiv big shots.

    I constantly amazed at how little people think of Haye and his boxing ability. If the fight ever went down I would say Haye by KO inside of 3 rounds. Chambers has some skills but he's out of shape, slow, and flat footed. In addition to that he's got little power. Haye would walk right through Chambers. Two different class of fighters here. Haye's an A ranked fighter, I would put Chambers at B- or C+.

    Chambers is on another planet in terms of skill compared to Mormeck.

    why? til haye beats a legit hw, i will pick several hws over him. I rank Haye between #11-15 as of now. It's not like Haye looked invincible as a cw. The man has a lot of power and speed early in fights...he is a great athlete and good counter-puncher but there are major areas of concern as a hw (namely stamina, defense and punch resistance_....he has a lot to prove as a hw.

    These strengths and weaknesses were clearly highlighted against Barrett. You gotta be a blind hater or Grade-A nuthugger to argue otherwise.

    Eddie had workrate issues in one fight (Povetkin) in which he came in overweight. Haye has been floored and hurt badly by a SMW. A motivated Chambers handles Haye with ease.

    Chambers lacks killer instinct, all the skills in the world but cant finish the job.

    He did finish the job today vs a 6'7 giant. Chambers look great today. If he keeps weighing in under 210, i could see him easily beating Haye, Arreola and even Povetkin in the rematch.

    Chambers would Chin Check Haye and stop him.

    The Brits can be as delusional as they want but Chambers has better wins than Haye does at Heavyweight.

    Chambers KO in 5.

    I think Haye knocks Chambers out. He has a big power advantage, is more aggressive and has equal handspeed to Chambers. Would be a quality fight as long as it lasted though.

    Chambers has a solid chin and Haye does not have the murderous power at Heavyweight that his nuthuggers say he does.
