    Chambers says will stay busy while waiting for shot at Wladimir who do guys think he should fight? I say

    # 1 Micheal Grant 6'7 260
    # 2 Gonzoob Omer Basile 6'6 250

    Both guys are rated and tall:deal

    sounds good to me. He should take a fight around Nov/Dec and then fight Klitschko in the Spring of 2010.

    I'd like to see Chambers and Tony Thompson fight.

    Maybe against Kevin Johnson, Lamont Brewster, Rulsan Chagaev, Povetkin rematch if possible, Sergey Lyakhovich, or Kali Meehan.

    Tony is a good pick but a tough opponent for Chambers who has a title shot in the bag:hey

    There is problem the WBO isn't too strict on mandatories and most likely will give Wlad a voluntary defense before fighting Chambers.

    which he'll use to fight Povetkin.
    W.Klitschko likes to take his mandatories as they come so he'll fight him as soon as Chambers is ready.

    It might be too early to put Chambers in with Wlad.

    I'd like to see Chambers fight Kali Meehan. That would let us know for sure if he's the goods.

    Kali Meehan is garbage compared to Chambers, this is the guy who got stopped by Rahman. Chambers would most likely outbox him.

    Kevin Johnson
    Kali Meehan
    Michael Grant

    Nobody too tough.

    Yeah since beating Kali Meehan is a true measure of a fighter's greatness. If you have wins over Calvin Brock, Samuel Peter, and Alexander Dimitrenko (all considered not too long ago to be rising stars) you have the goods. Chambers has a better resume than the other young guns Arreola, Haye, and Johnson.

    Fight Kevin Johnson. Big guy with a good jab, that would really test him.

    Risky fight though that one.

    I think Tony Thompson would also be a good test
