    This fight seems to be a good matchup of 2 highly ranked Heavys. That doesn't happen nearly often enough.

    Chambers by close but clear decision.

    Can't be syked by a HW fight.

    That thought died some years ago.

    Yes me . . . I'm curious how it's gonna turn up. The two fighters have completely different fighting styles.

    My pick . . . Dimitrenko by close decission.

    Depends which Chambers shows up. At his best, he fights like a poor man's Chris Byrd which may be enough for the relatively inexperienced Dimitrenko. At his worst, he fights like a REALLY poor man's Tony Tubbs and will get worn down by the much bigger man.

    I lost faith in Chambers after the way he fought against Povetkin. He could have won that fight, but he just wasn't in shape.

    I enjoy watching Chambers. He does some really pretty things in there, and if his work-rate and stamina improved, he could probably beat any non-Klitschko.

    That's a good analogy actually. Chambers knows the urgency but so does Alex. Should be a good one.

    I actually gained respect for him though as a boxer. Now he needs to realize that this may end up being his last good chance. All he needs is the stamina and to keep busy. I think he's much faster than the big guy and he protects his body well. He does take too many head shots though & that's bound to catch up with him.

    I'd be more syked if the fight was on American TV, but I still may watch it on Youtube afterwards. Chambers is going to have to win clearly to get the decision in Germany.

    Not that I have anything against Dimentrko, but I am going to root for Chambers to pull through.
