    True. Eddie could do well in both divisions. He lasted 12 with Wlad and beat the **** out of Sam Peter,Dimitrenko etc.
    Maybe Eddie could do a Marco Huck and go down to Cw for some money and kill Huck or whoever and come back p to HW.
    Personally I think he should stay at HW and have that speed advantage. It's fun to have smaller heavyweights beating bigger guys anyway.

    He should go down in weight, he could potentially beat every cruiserweight out there and he is too small for heavyweight.

    He should stay where he is. He can give every HW not named Wladimir a tough fight. He probably has a problem though in making fights with his style. Potential opponents might look at his style and put him under the category of "why the hell do I need this guy" type. Kevin Johnson likely has a similar problem.

    He's a cruiserweight who fights in the HW division for the bigger money.

    "Beat the **** out of Peter" is a bit of a overstatement, it was a pretty close fight.

    I'd rather he go to cruiserweight and try to make a big fight in that division. The problem is I can't imagine any of the champs (Huck, Tarver, Wlod, etc) risking the fight.

    Everyone says you make more in heavyweight eliminators than in cruiserweight title fights....but all that is a matter of marketing. Duva herself should get back in the cruiserweight title fight business and give us some good fights. Adamek/Cunningham rematch at heavyweight next! Though Povetkin/Adamek will also work :)

    he looked in shape tbh. his only problem was his left arm. if he had his left arm he would've won convincingly.

    Well no he isn't too small for heavyweight. The minimum is 200 pounds and he is always over 200 pounds. 199 would be too small. Plus he's 6'1"

    OK I can live with that but he did beat the **** out of Dimitrenko and even dropped him.

    No Pulev beat Dimitrenko after Chambers did so actually Chambers exposed him. And Chambers lasted 12 rounds with Wlad so I dont think he was outclassed. Wlad was his normal cautious boring self.

    Wlad didnt do ****. Wlad threw 1 good punch in round 12. Cautious Wlad boring Wlad. Chambers held his own.
