    i would hope youre right....but chambers really hasnt fought and beaten anyone that makes you get excited....yep, he boxed sam peters ears off, dimentrinko was big an undefeated, but out of 29 wins, his biggest name was Kransqui...who really aint **** .....had a spit dec against brock and lost to povetlin UD, i think you guys are snowed a little by what he did in his last fight...while impressive he beat a guy who hadnt been in there with a top 10 guy....or top 15 (kransqui had been knocked out in 2 of his previous 4 fights, so he wasnt top 15 either)
    i still say haye would beat chambers , but wouldnt be shocked if he didnt...

    Chambers does not have the footspeed to keep Haye from off him. Haye's output only looked seriously bad when he was on defense and while having a broken hand. Chambers is fast but not that much faster. At the same time, Chambers just doesn't have the kind of movement he needs to out-box Haye. I feel he can do well for the first 3-4 rounds but I feel Haye would make some move toward the mid-fight.

    Chambers is more skilled. But Haye's power, arsenal of punches and Chambers lack of movement would lead me favoring Haye. And Haye would be the bigger man in the fight. Chambers is essentially a CW but a better fighter than any CW Haye fought.

    ...Not mad props, just props for winning the fight. That's filed under common practice.

    I've read most of your posts regarding the issue. You have an agenda, you have some serious disdain for Haye...your credibility plummets as a result.

    if there is 10 threads about haye and this fight, why would my opinion change....
    fact is, the guy **** talked enough for 2 careers for this one fight...and did nothing...kinda bothers me.....kinda doesnt give HIM any credibility...the same guy who pulled out of both klit fights after talking ****....

    Good post, and you are probably right. Not sure if Chambers could handle Haye's power.

    It would be a 60/40 fight, but I would favor Chambers because of his skills. Chambers is supposedly fighting Wladimir next, unless something happens (which is likely).

    He should be fighting Vitali. Definitely fighting the wrong brother. They matched them well. Arreola would have done better against Wlad, and vice versa for Eddie.

    Irrelevant.

    Haye won the fight, and he did it without practically taking a solid shot for 12 rounds. Well done Haye, **** all this agenda driven bitterness. That's playground stuff.

    ....Why did you even bother to type that. Are you 7 years old. :verysad

    Anyone who overcomes such a disparity in size...and anyone who goes 12 rounds at this level without taking so much as a hard solid shot (maybe one right hook got through) deserves respect. I'm not claiming Haye is the best at HW, that he can beat the Klitschko's or even that it was a fantastic victory, only that he deserves credit for making his gameplan work. It's not rocket science.

    I'd like to see this fight and considering the high caliber of both fighters I find it ridiculous that people show up and say so-and-so EASILY over so-and-so. It shows silly amounts of bias.
