    How many of you thought Chambers corner did a terrible job? All I heard them do was criticize him and tell him to punch. I never once heard them tell Eddie what he should throw or how to go about it.

    It's the same corner who was running their mouth pre-fight on how Wlad's just some generic Eastern European robot that's easy to beat.

    There is a big difference between theory and practicle application

    Well, I agree that they seemed a bit unconstructive. Yelling "What is wrong with you" against a fighter that is heavily outgunned and outsmarted probably doesn't help too much.

    It all makes sense when you consider that Chamber's trainer actually thought they will have a realistic chance of outboxing Wlad. They were delusional and couldn't believe that for some magical reason Eddie seemed unable to execute their genius plan :lol:

    It's just likeTyson said:all things are thrown out the window and everything changes once you get hit.
