    I would like to see Chambers train his ass off and come into that fight at about 213.

    I would like to see him let his hands go more often and be aggressive.

    If he does this I think he can win and maybe even by stoppage as I do not think Dimitrenko has the best Chin.

    If Chambers can win this fight it would be huge.

    Is that why they've been making so many great fights recently? :lol:

    Anyway, I see Dimi edging this one on points.

    Chambers better not bring Buddy McGirt into his corner like he did against Povetkin. Buddy will just **** things up.

    Strange call by Chambers - going to Germany and pretty much have to win a decision? Steep hill to climb. He'll have to be damn busy! Good fight though - props to them for making it. Whatever you want to say about Chambers, he keeps busy and has fought some reasonable opponents.

    Thought 1: a WBO eliminator is a bit of a bum prize - if WK beats Haye, I think he owes Povetkin a match first; if Haye wins, the rematch/VK merry-go-round begins and it could be years before they get to the WBO challenger. (Of course, at least the challenger would be in line if the WBO strips in there.)

    Thought 2: If WK wins and for whatever reason takes the WBO manatory first, Chambers could get the title shot before Povetkin, who beat him for that right almost a year and a half ago. Not likely, but possible.

    Chambers is not scared to go to Germany he has already done it once.

    Chambers is doing what more fighters need to do and that is leave the comforts of their country and fight.

    LOL @ all you people talking about Chambers coming in shape.

    Come on guys it's not gonna happen. That said Chambers has enough skill to potentially take a decision from Dimitrenko.

    I'll say 8-4/7-5 for Dimtrenko.

    It's just a bit surprising to me - with the Peter win, you'd think he'd be able to call a shot or two. Shouldn't US tv be trying to match him for an eliminator?

    But he's seizing his opportunities and trying to make his statements in the ring. Absolutely, you have to respect that.

    hope this one ends in a draw so that the winner of Haye-Wlad isnt immediately forced into facing either of these clowns.

    And the fact that chambers only has a jab( a very good one albiet)
    and that little lead right and roll out move means that sasha's two fisted
    attack and decent workrate will get him the nod. Alexander is a much better boxer than scam cheater.

    :roll: OK armchair fanboy. What have you seen from dimi that indicates that he has a shaky chin that he would be stopped by a guy who wouldn't even be a big puncher at cruiserweight? HMMMMM??
