Chambers has the skill but not enough power to beat Wlad

    A points win over Wlad would be suffice in my view But idk Wlad's laser jab right hand are lethal.

    Klit will jab him all night long...I remember seeing Chambers-Povetkin and i was really disappointed with Chamber's overall effort..I know he has some quality wins since than (Peters +Dimitrenko), but Klit would dominate him in a wide UD...

    Chambers will do well against Wladimir the first round or 2 but after the jab is established by Wladimir Chambers is going to get stopped within 6 rounds or so.

    Let's just put it this way. If Chambers and Wlad were about equal in size, Chambers would win. But because there is such a huge disparity in natural size, it will be tough for Chambers to get through Wlad's jab.

    This is why i say Wlad is overrated. He usually has a huge natural size advantage over his opponents that no lower weight classes offer. You can't ignore that. Povetkin is another who is more skilled than Wlad. But he too is a small HW.

    The nuthuggers said the same thing about chambers when he fought there hero Dimitrenko. I told you Dimitrenko had a weak ass chin and it does not take a lot of power to hurt them. Same with Wlad Klitschko. Wlads chin is so weak that Chambers can hurt him and even ko wlad.Wlad Klitschko can not take a punch. Brewster almost knocked wlad down with a left jab. Corrie Sanders said he never fought anyone with a chin as bad as wlads.

    He couldn't beat Povetkin so how will he beat Wlad? He's not big enough or strong enough to trade with Wlad.

    I don't think he moves his head enough, even if he had the power. To beat Wlad at this point, I think you need great head movement, plus good enough reflexes to fire off a shot or two if you can get him to miss on the jab. That's a big part of the reason why I think Haye has a better chance of beating him than anyone.

    With better conditioning, he could have beaten Povetkin, and it appears he was in better condition his last fight. Had Chambers not gassed out, he very well could have won.

    While the size advantage is a huge one for the Kiltschko brothers, you have to admit that their dedication to always showing up in shape and their skillset (especially Wlad's) are also working in their favor too. For big men, they are actually good and coordinated enough to use that size advatange to avoid ever getting hit at all with good shots.

    It will take a skilled big man with some decent handspeed and some serious pop to beat these guys. That kind of fighter does not exist in the heavyweight division for them to fight.

    I'd love to see Wladimir in a war with someone like that. That kind of fight is what he needs to cement his legacy in my opinion. Too bad no one out there has the ability to give him that kind of fight.
