Good for Chambers, that's the first big fight of his where he didn't fade in the second half. The 113-113 was ludicrous, clear win for Chambers.
The difference is that Arreola and Haye do more talking than beating actual contenders. David Haye would best be served by taking the Holyfield route and fighting a few more middle-of-the road heavies because a fight against either Wlad or Vitali, while a good payday, is a dead end. Chambers is as worthy a mandatory as there has been in quite some time, and by virtue of his victory over the latter, Povetkin is equally as worthy.
Both are good fighters, Chambers is better. This fight is for the WBO mandatory challenger to Wladimir Klitschko.
Strange thing with that british judge, embarrassing... But all the Germany haters must admit that it was a very honest and unbiased public in Hamburg. Most of the people were celebrating Eddie whole fight long, not just because he was smaller, but the better fighter. It`s hard to find that somewhere else in the boxworld.
Haye talked his way into a title shot, now Chambers is fighting his way into one. What is Kevin Johnson doing?
I thought it was agood fight, especially for Eddie of course. I was one of the few that picked him to win too. I didn't expect him to knock Dimi down though, that was a welcome surprise. Welcome the #3 Heavyweight, from the US of ****in A: Fast Eddie Chambers!!!! :happy
Great performance, Fast Eddie !!! Good chin, very quick hands. In a good physical shape he could give Wlad a lot of problems. Questionable : Stamina (Povetkin fight) and Punching Power.
