    This is a good fight & I'm pretty excited about it. It's about time some of the top 10 Heavys fight each each to separate the contenders from the pretenders.

    for sure good to see Peter in there against a risky opponent rather then a can.

    Chambers could outpoint Peter if his conditioning is top-notch. He faded badly against Povetkin. He can't afford to fade against Peter or he'll end up eating canvass.

    That's basically the way I see it too. Peter could always land something huge early but Chambers is very fast & he has good defense & an even better chin. Peter's best chance is early & late ironically. The middle of the fight will belong to Fast Eddie.

    I think that we all agree that conditioning is a huge factor in this fight. If chambers is in shape he will box peters ears off. Fast Eddie is gonna have to get peters respect early or peter is gonna bully him around the ring all. Chambers needs to keep his jab in peters face all night long!!!!!

    Chambers by ud unless peter gets frustrated and quits.............AGAIN

    Please peter won't quit against the feather fisted chambers besides everybody said the same thing when peter fought toney.

    I hope your not not comparing chambers to a fat, punch drunk, washed up 40 year old james toney!!!!

    when peter faced him back in 07 most experts picked toney to box circles around peter just like your doing now with chambers

    Chambers by UD is VERY possible in this one. If Chambers performs like he did against Povetkin he takes this by UD.

    I agree with you and I hope that is not gonna be the result,, everybody here knows that Im the biggest Peter fan here. I'm hoping peter walks him down and knocks out chambers

    Eddie Chambers doesn't have Vitali/Peter/Virchis power.... BUT.... He's no Malignaggi... Eddie can punch a bit... He's gonna stun Peter a few times with his hand speed and Peters lack of D... Should make for a good fight....

    I certainly wouldn't rule out a Peter knockout just like you described. These are Heavyweights and sometimes all it takes is one big punch & Peter does have that punch.

    Hard fight to predict, though Chambers made a fan out of me and I believe Fast Eddie by UD.

    It's easy to blame his corner, but how about.......... THE MAN HIMSELF?!

    You can lead a horse to the water, but if it doesn't drink, what are you gonna do? Peter is said to be extremely stubborn and does come across that way. Hopefully the second Klitschko beating was a wake-up call, because he's not gonna go anywhere if he comes in at 250lbs again, he needs to be at highest 245lbs against Chambers, best would be below 240. That's plenty of weight for a 6'1 boxer, even for one with shoulders as wide as Peter.
